Eating crow on Jaylon & Lawrence today

[Havic]

Defense played hard after Prescott went down, lit a fire.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Yeah and the offense they faced sucked but this defense is worse than their offense.

 

[BigD_95]

I give those guys a hard time more than nearly anyone here, but they both showed up in big ways today!

You eat it on Smith but Lawrence makes too much to have 1 game where he shows up

Everson Griffen played well too, no?

 

[MRV52]

Dlaw and Jaylon balled today!!!!

The Barkley-less, Garrett-offense-lead Giants stink. The Giants will be lucky to win 2 or 3 games this season, and when they do, those wins will likely come against the hapless NFC East. So there is NO WAY I'm eating crow at any "solid" defensive performances against the G Men (DLaw and Jaylon definitely included)....and they still scored 34 points and almost won!

I'll hold my crow until I see them play well consistently over the next month.

It's refreshing to see someone reevaluate their opinion.

I was astounded by the number of people that actually wanted to CUT Jaylon Smith this past week!

we gave up 34 to the giants. Thats equal to giving up 45 to a real team.

27. 7 was on a defensive return. But I get what you’re saying

I try to remain as objective as possible and definitely pull back a little when I’m wrong.

I still think Jaylon and Lawrence have been horrible, but today, they played really well and made significant impacts on the game. I hope that intensity keeps being shown

wooten but you are man enough to admit your error...hats off

 

[TheCowboy]

Entire defense looked a little better this week than previous weeks, even given the opponent.

Thanks brother

14 points wasnt the defense fault.

 

[texbumthelife]

A couple tackles for a loss are bare minimum expectations for a linebacker. He didn't embarrass himself but come on.

I mean you're not wrong, but dude had 14 tackles and a half sack today. This was hands down Jaylon's best game of 2020. If he played every game like he did today, I'd have no problem with him as a starter. He had some blunders, but he also attacked blocks better than I've seen him l season and had some great reads.

It's one game, so I won't anoint him, but he looked a lot better.

 

[BBGTYCOON]

Give me a break I watched Smith running into the O-Line as the runner was hitting another gap!!!!!!!!!!!! He doesn't have a clue when he's near the offensive line.

THIS^^^^^^

rocy--- i am terrified how bad our defense is....Dak could sling it and run it to keep us in games...so glad we got Dalton...he was vet tough to win it for us...but dont think we got personnel to hold up for season

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Jaylon has always play hard, just not smart. I don’t feel that Tank has played hard except for parts of this game.

 

[fivetwos]

Dont agree.

They stepped it up after Dak went down for sure.

DL was getting some pressure early and had the one sack.

They each hardly vindicated themselves on this game alone.

 

[CyberB0b]

Lawrence has 1 sack in the last 13 months. This game. He deserves all the criticism.

 

[Bob-Lillys-War]

I read that Jaylon had a career high of 1.5 tackles in this game.

THAT IS PATHETIC . AWFUL !!! JUST AWFUL !!!!
