Worst game plan for tomorrow.....or the best...??

I Love Clams Casino : 11/23/2022 9:54 am
1st quarter, 1st possession....Giants play this game like they are down by 10 with 5 minutes left in the 4th quarter.

For as horrible as this offense is trying to do this, try to stretch the field, get vertical as quickly as possible....

love to see screen after screen, using Barkley downfield as opposed to running on them, keep Brieda and the other guy in for runs.....send Barkley on routes all day long.....

gotta get to 2nd and short every single time, because 2nd and long is gonna be a killer....Giants can't run on 2nd and long......ever.....

Also, once the Giants approach the red zone, score from deep....it gets way too tight when only 5-10 yards out......must try at all costs to stretch the field, constantly....

OK, pile on BBI!

Happy Thanksgiving anyway!
Sounds great in theory

but then you remember Evan Neal will not likely be playing and our interior OL is a mess and Dallas has one of the best pass rushes in football

RIP Daniel Jones
Screens are tough  
mittenedman : 11/23/2022 9:58 am : link
because right now, you only have to rush 4 to completely crush the pocket. With everyone keying on Barkley, there will be hats all over any screen they try to run.

Thanks to all the injuries they are (again) badly overmatched personnel-wise, which has been the case almost every game this year. Their best bet continues to be trying to pound with the run game and hoping to work play action.

There's nothing else they can do. If they try to drop back and take deep shots with their OL and WRs vs. Parsons and this DAL pass rush, that's a losing strategy and the game will get out of hand quickly. IMO.
They need to stretch

the LoS. Try and get 0ne or two players out of the box and open up the line a bit.
Gonna be hard with all the injuries to get anything done.

Vanilla Vick. I think that's our best shot. I'm not holding my breath.

This game is all about Saquon, keeping the Cowboy offense off the field and then holding them to field goals when they they have the ball.

Saquon cant have the 17 carries for 25 yards line he had last week. If that happen, Giants are fucked. Giants need a clean game - minimize penalties and turnovers.

Need a big game from our special teams, especially the punting game. If the Giants can somehow, someway keep it to a one possession game going into the 4th quarter they can make it a game. The one advantage we may have is Daboll v. McCarthy.
Parsons is a DNP on Monday - knee

Limited Tues. Has to be full practice Wed.

Daniel may have a good day - or at least a better day if Parsons is slowed down.
Micah Parsons

limited in practice
Giants will need to be a passing team on 1st down  
NYGgolfer : 11/23/2022 10:13 am : link
and use the legs of Daniel Jones to move the ball.

Pounding the running game on first (and second down) will only leave obvious 3rd down passing situations. Dallas with then take advantage via their good pass rush and start jumping the typical short routes.

Passing on first might not be successful either but guarantee running won't with all eyes on Saquon in first half.
Sounds good

Could happen... ya never know. Would be great.

But maybe here's a more plausible scenario.

Dallas isn't fully awake when the game begins, and so the Giants are left hanging around until sometime into the 3rd quarter. Maybe the Giants even have a slight lead. But finally, Dallas wakes up, stretches, yawns and then swats the Giants away scoring 21 unanswered points.

went away from Saquon in the first game after the big TD run, barley got any carries in a tie/1 score game. Kafka has some head scratchers this year and that's one, he's been lost since the Seahawks game with his game planning.
Thomas is sick too

If he can’t go a forfeit might be their best plan

Neal will be a game time decision. I bet he plays
First Play From Scrimmage

Jones pitch to Barkely, pitch back to Jones, who hits Golladay or Slayton in stride for a 75 yard touchdown!!

I like it. That gives us 7.

What do we do to match their 35?
I’d go with mostly 2 RB sets and use Saquon as a decoy.  
Spider56 : 11/23/2022 10:59 am : link
The turds will be keying on SB ... use a lot of misdirections and let Breida get most of the carries. Mix in a lot of play action. On defense, it starts up front. You have to stop EE and Pollard and hope Dak has a bad day.
Stretch the field? With who? Which Giants wr scares a defense?  
Jack Stroud : 11/23/2022 11:08 am : link
This appears to be a one sided affair with all of the Giants injuries.
Utilizing Barkley more  
46and2Blue : 11/23/2022 11:43 am : link
in passing game, could really help. We really haven't done that so far. Screens, wheels, crossers. You just find a way to get 26 the ball, if they won't let you run it. Good game to get Breida on the field as well.

As in no three TE sets. Stretch the LoS to get the CBs and Safeties away from the interior line.
Truthfully...

I don't see the Giants getting a TD and I don't see Dallas Punting...
Worst of all….

Just hate to see those shots of Jerrah, his boys laughing, clapping…cleaning dad’s glasses cause the scoreboard is paying off like a las vegas slot machine……turkey and pepto for giants fans…..
People made some good points  
thefan : 11/24/2022 12:46 am : link
about passing first getting Jones killed. If the plan is to distract Dallas from our run game. I'd actually just do a bunch of designed runs and boots for Jones. Force them out of their game plan by keeping a spy on him early.

Whats Winks plan for the Dallas run game though? We've been getting abused and Dallas certainly abused us last time. Not even excited for this.

If the Giants win this it will be their greatest victory in the last decade.
