Talkin' Giants: Giants Week 2 Offensive Line Report

M.S. : 9/22/2020 11:11 am
I posted Bobby Skinner's YouTube video from last week. Once again, he's very informative with a lot of nice film breakdown. I think you'll find this analysis very insightful.

Real good breakdowns there.

Anyone else think DJ should’ve hit SS early coming across the middle on the Thomas strip sack/fumble? Looked to me if he gets rid of it right away it’s a completion but he held a second too long, saw a db coming up from the back and double pumped leading to the sack.

Also would’ve been nice if the tv analyst pointed out Lewis not hitting the right holes a couple of times. Not something I’d expect from a vet RB but maybe it was just rust. Hopefully it doesn’t continue this week.
I enjoyed it last week and again this week. Thanks for posting it.

I was glad to hear that he thought Gates had a good game.
Funny, but I mentioned it in Sy's thread

I felt like Jones was off but i agree with him, the WR's and TE's were not getting any separation.

I agree, he was open and DJ didn't seem to trust that he was open (based on the double pump). And that window closed fast. And then sack fumble obviously. Bad play by Thomas, but seems like the ball should already have been gone by the time Quinn gets there.
Thanks for posting these

I enjoy this guys work. Thomas is gonna be a good one in short order. Gates will come around. The RT and RG need to be upgraded and we may already have them on the roster. Quietly, I see this group developing into a strength of the team as soon as next year.
Hope to see Peart somewhat soon

Also only 2 games in and it’s early, but the other 3 out of the big 4 OT’s have been a cut above Thomas. Not a knock on Thomas, he looks solid. But Wills, Becton and Wirfs have looked REALLY good. Somewhat disappointing considering Thomas was labeled as the pro-ready guy and he’s been the worst of the group so far

That Chicago secondary could be top 3 in the league before the season ends. Two all pro talents in Jackson and Fuller, and the rookie Johnson has been really, really good through 2 weeks.

Are you basing this one this one game against the Bears? This guy basically said he was our best OL last game and barely made any mistakes.

Last week people were saying that Wills played poorly week 1. He had a good week 2. Thomas was flipped. Instead of it being 1 good and 1 bad game, somehow we forget about week 1. It was one week ago!

I also thought I heard that Becton wasn't great week 1.

Well, I prefaced it with "it's only 2 games". And this is based off of weeks 1 and 2, and from breakdowns I've seen from guys who make a living watching film. You see more flashes of excellence from the other guys- for Wills it's his quick feet and pass pro that has been flawless, Becton has been an absolute FORCE and is already the best player on the Jets offense- manhandling guys. Wirfs is playing at RT, but was solid week 1 vs Cam Jordan minus one bad snap and was outstanding this past week vs Brian Burns. 2 tough matchups, once again pointing out that there is not much of a difference going from Left to Right tackle when it comes to matchups.
Flawless?

"Wills looked promising in some of his reps, but he also had his share of struggles dealing with Matthew Judon in pass protection."
