Incapacitated, shell-shocked like David Carr, take your pick. I don't know what the breakdown was between Eli and Jones, but Giants QB's were hit more times in 2019 than any other team's QB's except two. I'd rather not see that happen again this year...or get even worse.
Klaatu - that’s a significant and frightening stats about total QB hits in 2019. What’s the source?

I don't remember, but it was brought up here and verified not too long ago. As I recall, the Giants' magic number was 119.
Pro football reference is showing 75 hits

That site doesn’t compile these stats to allow for comparison but I did some cross checking and the Giants did very badly on this metric, which is what our eyes were telling us.

Teams like the Patriots and Cowboys both had 55 hits and bad teams like the Jets and Tampa had hits in the 40s, which I thought was interesting.

One team that matched the Giants in this awfulness were the Panthers, also with 75.

I completely agree that this needs to be fixed ASAP but to provide some historical context here, the 2002 Texans season that frightens everyone has David Carr being sacked (sacked, not hit) 76 times, which is more than the excessive 66 times Jones was hit last season.

Still I agree. No matter how bad our D is, the awfulness of the OL last season threatens to derail the entire team strategically.
