Giants return from bye week with few changes but high hopes

It's been over a week since the Giants played in a game and it will be almost another week before they play in their next one. In the nearly never-ending grind that is an NFL schedule _ whether a team is winning or, like these Giants, not _ that's a fairly long respite.

But the idea that the bye week provides teams with an opportunity to overhaul their schemes and systems, to implement personality transplants, or make drastic changes in how they operate, well, that's a bit of a myth.

So as the Giants returned from their bye on Monday, they took to the practice field somewhat refreshed and gathered again in their meeting rooms a bit refocused. As for drastic changes, though, don't expect to see a lot of them.
