Giants get smacked around by Cowboys
The Giants lost their second game in a row. This one wasn’t quite as painful as the Philly game because our defense didn’t get pushed around too badly. I’m not saying that the defense played great or anything, but they weren’t painful to watch (other than a few missed tackles).
The offense, however, got spanked. Manning was sacked 8 times which shouldn’t really happen in an NFL game because professionals aren’t supposed to get beaten so often… I hope Seubert and McKenzie are both OK and I don’t mean to add insult to injury, but they did both get their butts whooped before getting hurt. Diehl played the worst I’ve ever seen him play so overall I’d say the offensive line had a pretty bad day…

Can’t find the stats for the Cowboy game.
Seems like the Giants have given up on running the ball. What were the pass/run numbers for the Cowboy and Eagles games?

This game showed some real problems for the G men.The sacks,and steady pressure from dallas was watched by carolina, and we’ll see the same sunday night.Hope Brandon is back and well, we sure need that pounding runner to set up the pass.See to many similarities to dallas last year,are we tired?or just overconfident?Need to reverse this trend now or will be one and done.

It seems like the blame is always put on the players, But some one should really take a close look at the coaching crue. Specially at the offensive coordinator. In my opinion the play calling is to predictable and the play calling is outdated. In todays west coast offence it is imperative that Elli gets rid of the ball a lot faster.
