First two offensive plays of the game

The issues with this offense are so pervasive virtually any samplings is bound to have reflections of the issues on that side of the ball.

The first play of the game they run right. I get it, Haloti Ngata is a very good player, but he absolutely stonewalls the double team from Richburg and Jerry --If anything, the initial push is in the direction of the Giants side of the LOS. 640 pounds of Oline and zero push there.

Equally no push from Hart at RT, then Shane Smith misses a block on the LB, I'm not even sure how, perhaps he got tossed aside, but this play had zero chance.

The second play is the sack, very nearly a strip sack, where John Jerry's guy loops around him to get at Eli. What is mind boggling about this one is Jerry's nonchalant acceptance of his guy beating him. He basically gets beat by his man looping around him and sort of casually moves onto a double team with Harts man. Usually you will see a last ditch lunge or something in effort to salvage the play or at least slow your man's progress on his way to the QB as he beats you, but none of that here.

Just all around bad play here guys, not surprising.

Oh, yeah, another 3rd down completion resulting in no first down....
