Exactly. Giants need to lengthen their script to get them through more TD drives. Does the opposing defense make adjustments that keep the Giants re-running the script?
he has always been good at scripting an opening drive. Look at the 2018 NFCCG vs Philly. Vikings came out of the gate with a TD and then stalled the rest of the way.
I think the Giants offense only succeeding on scripted drives points to the weakness at QB. Eli is unable to go off-script and make things happen. He needs literally everything around him to be perfect or he is an ineffective QB. It also points to Shurmurs inability to make in-game adjustments.
Too much shotgun. Eli is no threat to run and any play-action doesn't allow for the same protection as it does when the play begins under center.
If you put the Giants in a situation where they have to rely on Eli and this cast of scrubs at WR, this offense is in trouble

Yeah, that’s the most likely answer.
Do they just practice the hell out of those and once the D figures them out, they have little else to rely on?

Eli's playaction out of the shotgun looks bad, I can tell if he is going to hand off or not.
