The job’s not finished.
Those words ring in the ears of every player on the Giants as they embark on the second half of the season coming out of their bye week with a game against the 1-6-1 Texans Sunday at MetLife Stadium.
This is the Giants’ mantra at the moment. They’re 6-2 and have put themselves in great position for a run at a first playoff berth since 2016 yet they know that six wins have clinched them exactly nothing. “The job’s not done,’’ Giants center Jon Feliciano told The Post. “[Daboll] showed that Kobe clip to us a few weeks ago, but it still resonates. That’s everyone’s mindset. It’s nice to be 6-2, but at the end of the day it means nothing right now.’’ Giants ninth-year defensive lineman Justin Ellis has reminded teammates of his experience with the Ravens last season as a cautionary tale. The Ravens were 8-3 and rolling, lost their final six games and missed the playoffs.
Every player on the Giants has looked at tape of the Texans and sees players who post a threat on both sides of the ball. “I don’t know who said something to him or did something to him to make him so angry, but that might be the angriest runner in the league,’’ Giants defensive coordinator Wink Martindale said. “[He] runs mad every time he touches it. It’s going to be [a] tough assignment.’’
