Screen yes, but I also want to see Saquon do some wheel-routes, which were his bread and butter in college.

That’s your take after this game?

What?? There is no way Eli will have enough time in the pocket for a wheel route.

Max protection!!!

in the stinkin' draft.

He gained 28 yards with 11 carries.
A 2.5 yard average.

Are you gonna say that no running back will look good who has no blockers?

No one was saying that when they were pushing to draft him.

Anyway, the BEST player out of all coming out from college should be able to be a gamechanger even if he's thrown in with some lousy linemen.

He was overhyped. Give the ball to him on 1st down to run between the tackles and he'll average three yards a carry.

He has two NFL games under his belt, and in his first one, he *was* a gamechanger.

They needed to throw more screens though to slow the pass rush.

all checkdowns. would have been nice to neutralize the pass rush with an actual screen.....

Despite all the hype, a running back can't take the hand-off and run the ball up the middle for an average of 6 yards/carry without blockers.

And by the time the Giants get him decent blockers, he'll already will have been beat up carrying the ball for four or five years.
