If it weren’t for the logos on the helmets, you won’t acknowledge the New York Giants as an expert soccer crew. They have been completely slaughtered for the second time this season by the Dallas Cowboys, 49-17, to fall to a paltry 2-8 document for the 2023 marketing campaign. The G-Males discover themselves in quarterback purgatory with an injured starter (Daniel Jones) and a backup on Sunday (Tommy DeVito) who appears to be like like he’ll be enjoying within the XFL in a couple of months. Sadly for the Giants, veteran QB Tyrod Taylor can be out on account of a rib damage.
The one optimistic for the Giants from this sport is that they really scored. In Week 1, the Cowboys blew them out at MetLife Stadium 40-0. This time in Large D, the Giants nearly bought a 50-burger on their dome piece. That is what can occur whenever you give some huge cash to the incorrect participant within the backfield. Paying Daniel Jones over Saquon Barkley has haunted the Giants all season and can seemingly proceed to take action sooner or later.
By halftime, the Giants had been outscored 68-0 by the Cowboys this yr via six quarters of the sport. It is laborious to consider that this was a playoff crew only a yr in the past. Not solely did they make the postseason, however the Giants went to Minnesota and upset the Vikings within the wild-card spherical.
Now the G-Males hardly appear to be a crew that belongs within the NFL. DeVito handed for 86 yards and two touchdowns late when the sport was effectively out of attain. Barkley averaged over 5 yards per carry, however whenever you dig a gap that huge, the one means out is to cross the ball.
Permitting Barkley to run a lot after halftime was not sensible.
This crew wants greater than a makeover. Jones and DeVito need to be shipped to an island and left there. In Week 10, New York was averaging a league-high 11.2 factors per sport. Scoring 17 was an enchancment, however all hope is misplaced.
The protection will get as a lot, if no more, blame because the offense after a second consecutive blow. Final week, New York was mauled 30-6 by Las Vegas. The Raiders aren’t precisely one of many higher groups within the league like Dallas. Brian Daboll has a popularity as a very good offensive coach, and naturally you want the very best expertise to win. But when he cannot a minimum of make this crew extra aggressive, his days as head coach could possibly be numbered. Possibly Daboll ought to take Colin Cowherd’s recommendation and dismissal. Issues don’t get higher in New York anytime quickly.
