...the Giants running attack looked much better with Saquon Barkley attacking the hole, and the O-line giving him a couple of nice creases. And the offense cut down on Barkley taking it in the grill 5 yards behind the LOS.
And on defense, the Giants front-7 pretty much stoned the Packers run game.
The bar is pretty low right now so i guess yesterday was a positive but it was far from encouraging.
Our defensive backs gave up a big pass play every time GB needed it, even when he was under heavy duress.
But there were more than a handful of plays where he just runs into the back of the C or G.
Bizarre.
This year, we are getting excited when he gets a 4 yard run. No imagination with Shurmur and trying to get him the ball in space.
He could do those things last year with good ankles.
I also know he had 3 pics instead but he did have extenuating circumstances again.....suspect pass protection, difficult weather, and two starters (Tate and Engram) out.
I don’t think Danny has ever played in snow more than one time.
