Just really a good solid team win. Love that Kingsberry is committed to the run and not asking JD to drop back 40+ times. He is really solid OC.Just night and day above EB.

The seismic offseason is very evident. We now have the following:

A REAL gm who is talented and hungry.
A star franchise qb.
A leader of a head coach who has experience and been to a Super Bowl.
An innovative, solid oc and dc.

We also got the new owner in Harris the year prior. Still pinching myself about all of this as a lifelong fan. Honestly, didn't know if I'd ever see it.

Also have to give DQ and his entire staff a lot of credit. I did not think they'd be this good. I was expecting 4-6 wins. If he get these guys to 11-12 wins he is hands down coach of the year. They nailed the GM, the coach and the QB. We are playing a rookie QB who plays like he's a vet. You got those 3 things and you got a chance to win year in, year out.

I really don't know how they did all this but it was very obvious that the people who are in charge really have an eye for talent. They know how to put a team together.

For instance getting rid of Dotson. I just did not like that move at all. They bring in these no names and they are making just enough plays at the right times. Just gotta gives these guys a ton of credit. And the o-line has been damn good. Did Dexter Lawrence even play yesterday? He is always destroying us and just nothing yesterday.

I have gotten spoiled. When Jayden misses a throw and they are not hanging 40 points I am thinking "what happened?". I think the injury is showing an affect, he has not been as accurate the last 2 weeks but I expect that to improve.

Can someone with more X and O experience help me understand why this defense with players like the DTs, Luvu, Wagner and Chin can't stop the run? Are they making halftime adjustments because it always improves as the game goes on.

Like the Bears game I was frustrated that the opponent was still in the game, we need to bury teams when we have them down.


With that said after a Giants score, when they really needed the offense to stay on the field and produce points. they did that 2 times with 2nd half drives that resulted in points.

The pass protection was excellent, no sacks and really not that much pressure given the opponent.

I was happy for C Rod. He provided huge runs late when they were needed. But he is still our 4th RB and a marginal NFL player, what happened to Eckler and McNichols?

OK so it was a bit boring but winning in NY is something new and I'll take it.

I think the their problems stopping the run stems from their problems in the secondary. yesterday they shut the pass down completely for a while, but couldn't stop the run. they came out in the second half and shut the running game down, but then had difficulties in pass coverage. I think they are being forced to use the LB's and safeties to help out in i coverage and it is opening up the running lanes a bit . . . if we could trust our corners to cover without as much assistance we could be better against the run!!

Eckeler is the most versatile but seemed to be getting a little banged up through the first half. CRod and McNichols took most of the late work. I think they like getting one guy into a rhythm rather than constantly rotating. McNick had 8 carries and CRod brought fresh legs when they needed it. I thought DQ and KK did a great job covering for BRob. Nearly 150 yds on the ground.

Some games are epic and some are just wins. Nice to be able to say that!

I think C Rod was one of the few good draft picks from Ron. He can run the rock in between the tackles. When he got in the game the Giants looked like they wanted no part of that truck.

Oline no sacks yesterday and opened up the run game for almost 150 yards.

Jeremy Chinn is earning an extension and Dante Fowler has been a solid depth pass rusher

Great win. Wish we didn’t show mercy at the end and score.

Big time props to Brandon Coleman yesterday, 0 pressures, top pass-blocking grade on the team. Could we have really found our franchise QB and LT in the same draft?

Great point. Coleman has been a stud. Another Peters home run. He killed the draft and FA. So lucky to him.

HTTC!

As I posted in the week 9 thread, Allegretti had to pop Coleman’s finger back in place during the game. Coleman didn’t miss a beat.

BTW, shout out to special teams too. Seibert leading the NFL in points, and Way had only 2 punts, but averaged 56.5 yards and 1 was pinned inside the 20. Some decent returns from Ekeler and Zaccheus too. They're quietly getting the job done.

Team win.
