Agree. The Giants were 31st against the run but screw that let’s throw the ball like it’s the Spurrier age all over again 

I mentioned it pre game that we have to be able to run the game to take pressure off Howell so we can throw as needed.

Should have been the plan early in the year when it was obvious the o line is ass.

EB calls plays like he’s got an All Pro Oline. Perhaps someone should tell him.

That has been my issue with EB as well.  He has yet, prior to the 2nd half today, adjusted his play calling to compensate for a terrible O-line.  Moving the pocket, screens and more shotgun calls have been needed for a while now.  EB just keeps running the same pattern of plays over and over and over.  Disappointing.

We couldn’t block their interior D Line. So run on the edges! Throw some screens to slow the blitz. Use more quick game. 
 

It’s basics.

Why not go for the TD before the blocked field goal, if we miss it they're pinned in anyway? Riverboat Ron has become Pedalboat Ron and he needs to go. Del Rio is brutal. NYG can't score TD's against anybody else in a month and we escort them into the endzone twice in the 1st half. 

Is this what Josh Harris paid 6 billion for? 


He was always conservative, there were just a few high leverage situations where he went for it with his star QB in CAR that earned him a dumb/false nickname. He’s never been some aggressive risk-taker. And when he does go for it, it’s usually nonsensical decision-making. He has no system or logic, he just wings it and is usually wrong whichever way he decides. It’s actually impressive.

The defense actually played really well in the 2nd half. Giants 2nd half drives:

 

 6 plays, 20 yards, punt.

 3 plays,  9 yards, punt.

 3 plays,  8 yards, punt.

10 plays, 72 yards, fumble.

 3 plays, -4 yards, end of game.

 

Why didn't thay play like that in the 1st half?

We tried that....didn't work. Trade them all and start over. This time focus on the offense.


When you trade your best players off, you create a culture of uncertainty and distrust, where even the hardest working player will hesitate to give it their all or be a team player —  because why, if their hard efforts will be meaningless and he can be shipped off at any time?

EB is the worst play caller that we've had since the Fun and Gun, maybe worse, because this team has more talent.

not trying to be funny. you think Scott Turner would do better? I think there would at least be more balance with the run game.

We couldn't run block for poop.  Draw/dive is our best play as the defense is used to winning immediately off the snap.

 

We need to seriously start adjusting the oline combo.  Wylie has to sit.  I like Gates's enthusiasm but he might need a break too.
