Incremental improvement key to beating Dallas tomorrow

In no way guaranteeing a Giants win BUT each week this young team has incrementally improved.


Week 1. O and D both sucked. A contrite post game Daboll said essentially its on me and strongly hinted at adjustments. Which he then would deliver on.

Week 2. O was excellent on a per possession basis but was severely hampered by no K. D played horribly conservative with too many big cushions and soft zones in the passing game. However, as their game vs the Bengals showed Washington may be a better offense under Klingsberry than we were giving them credit for.

Week 3. The closest to a complete game by both units yet. The game-plan was greatly adjusted on Defense as well and we responded by a historic day of pressure on an opposing offense. While the D in the first two weeks reminded me of Tim Lewis, the energy level that the D played with reminded me of the prime Spags days. Daboll was one step ahead of Schwartz for the entire first half and if DJs deep ball was a little better we would have exposed them in the 2nd half too. A missed Joseph FG didn't help matters either. But also, with the game on the line our OL busted Singletary for a huge gain that easily would have brought us to 28 pts had he not strategically fell down at the 1.

Last week was the closest to both offense and defense showing up for most of a game.

This Cowboy team has a downgrade at RB, OL and a what looks like a big downgrade at DC. They are not quite the Cowboy teams of yesteryear.

We will most definitely need to outcoach the Cowboys tomorrow just as we did Cleveland if we hope to win but if we continue the incremental improvement both from a coaching and player standpoint we have a pretty good chance to surprise in my estimation.
