Davis was better this week than last week, but Bostic was unreal at times when he was in charge of the D.
Have to remember that Bostic's alignment changes improve the play and effectiveness of everyone around him, even if he himself is a liability.
On a very positive note Davis drew single coverage vs WRs on multiple occasions and did a great job. He even understood giving his man the under route on 3rd down in the red zone, coming up and securing the play short of the sticks. That combination of knowledge and play is absolutely a "flash" and shows why you should be excited about what he can become.
I wanna give the cheese-man's pure intimidating presence credit for drawing D Law offside via his ability to do absolutely nothing.
Not hearing his name is such a positive outcome.
Can anyone explain how J Allen's greco roman takedown of a QB on live TV is not a flag.
Not upset about it, but I thought I understood the rules better than that
There was a series near the start of the 3rd(I think) where Bostic was in charge of the D alignments and he was reading the Giants plays like a book. Moved guys into better spots, sniffed out plays, it was an incredible series for him.
Hopefully Davis can learn from that tape as well
Has anyone seen this?
Is this worse than our leaky pipes?

Its a gutpunch, but its not the end of the would. Outside of the Fitz injury, other aspects can be fixed and improved.
The majority of our div lost as well, so that helps a ton
Learn from it, and move on to the next.
Even before Fitz went down it was clear the gameplan was to give the ball to Gibson early, often and always.
That usage was by design, and it came at the expense of every other playmaker on our offense. Waaaay to much reliance on Gibby.
Hopefully game plans moving forward is a little more complicated than give the ball to Gibby every play.
I get he is the focal point of the O but dang, what I just saw was dang near abuse.
I thought I saw enough of a push off for a call, but I also saw the Cowboys DB knowing he couldn't make a play on the ball and embellish the contact. Re-watching the clip, he did the whole head snap back thing on a push to his chest and was calling for the flag on his way to the ground. He was clearly trying to put the onus on the ref, and they did not reward his embellishment this time.
I was cool w/ the no call in that sitch. Can't "buy" penalties at the end of a game. No ref wants to decide a game like that.
What I found more perplexing was not icing the kicker
Annnnd cue La'el Collins skipping drug tests.
Five game slap

Hard to see Dax being active on gameday early in the season given this scenario
Reyes... I assumed he'd collect a few inactives at first, but if he is #3 you'd expect him to be active. Dude has really been impressive in such a short span of time.
While I would also not give Gibby 20 rushes per game either, I was referring to the idea of Patterson getting anywhere near that amount by gameplan design in the event of a Gibby injury.
Ever try dead guy brains? Same rule as sushi from a land-locked state. Don't
I like my players alive thank you very much
Giving my man 20/carries a game would be akin to reviving the Roman coliseum. Asking way too much.
If Gibby misses time it will be the same as last yr. RB by committee
