A win! A much needed win. With their backs against the wall, with pressure on Daboll heating up, the Giants notched a win to maybe save the season. Of course much work is ahead, but at 1-2, there is a ton to build on. I followed the game on Red Zone, through the 10 minute condensed spool, plus great commentary from BBB. I watched the Saints choke a game where they were … [Read more...] about NYG 21 CLE 15
WAS 21 NYG 18
Daniel Jones was better vs a weak WAS defense. Yet it was not enough.

Drew Lock, Part II

The Giants will give Jones more starts but he is on a very short leash. Does anyone think Jones is the answer in 2025? Between a limited … [Read more...] about Drew Lock, Part II
Quick Takes Post Debacle
Defense was -18 when on the field. Offense was -4 when on the field. Dan Schneier of Big Blue Banter broke down the Offensive film with Nick Falato. He asked aloud if Daniel Jones’ 2nd neck injury has impacted his mechanics. No, he didn’t make apologies, as they ripped Jones for horrible play. Carl Banks said that LT, before they walked on for the 100th halftime … [Read more...] about Quick Takes Post Debacle
