Dak looked good. This was one of my single areas of focus and he proved in his 1st NFL start that he can run this team without issue. great command of the offense and good touch.

Scott Linehan (poor dude) actually has to do his job now with no Romo and his rust showed in that vomit inducing game plan. Our defense is what it is so fg fg fg isn't going to do it.

Dez was strangely off today. That won't continue. look for Dez to have a big game next week and also look for Alfred Morris to figure more prominently in the offense. Zeke will find his way and the Ws will come.

Although we lost, I'm very encouraged by the play on the field. We have weapons folks. Now we just need Linehan to step his own game up.
 
Agreed, the defense played well! Offense will come along...88 needs to get in there!!!

Totally agree. In most games Zeke is going to put up 120 yards instead of 50, give the Giants Defense credit. Also I don't really blame Dez because he has to build up timing with Prescott, but given more reps Dak will do better throwing to Dez and Beasley.

Good to hear...I guess. Was traveling back from a family vacation and had to listen to it on the radio...kind of agonizing. I've said from day one Linehan wasn't a good hire IMO. I watched him with the Lions and was unimpressed. I also said this would be a VERY close game and had us winning 24-21. Almost had it, but gotta get TD's, not FG's. Would have won easily with Romo IMO. 34-20 type score. Is what it is. This season will be death by a zillion paper cuts and today is just the start. I like Dak, but he isn't ready....just like most rookie QB's aren't ready.
 
Doug Free has to go. Dude was getting beat on every single snap


I was afraid of that. My gosh, that won't get better as the season goes on. Just VERY poor judgement by the FO and coaching staff to think he's still got it: because he doesn't.
 
I like this post and agree wholeheartedly. The wins will come, im not concerned about that at all. We need to use the next few drafts and focus on WR and Defense exclusively. A good RT should be a priority as well.

If the Dallas offense can only musters 20 points a game, they're not winning many games this year...this defense is horrendous upfront!
 
If Dak is the player we hope he is, then there is reason for much hope. Average teams with good QBs can go from 7-9 to 12-4 in one season. We looked like a 7-9 or 8-8 team today. Over time the OL should mesh with Zeke and Dak will get more seasoned. We have Free's replacement on the team. Dez looks rusty.

We MUST devote draft picks to the D now. No more Hail Marys with pot heads or wife abusers. No more badly in injured players at #2 that might help next year. We simply do not have enough guys on D that can make a difference and take over a game or end a drive. This will be a LONG SEASON?
 
Dak looked like he belonged there, like he's been there before, very poised...
 
We started a rookie qb and lost by one point to a division rival. Those freaking out are being absurd.

We were also missing four of our six DEs to injury or suspension, 5 of 6 if you count Irving only playing a few snaps.

I'm inclined to bench Free and just take my lumps with Chaz Green.

So true. It's one game. Can we let them play a few more games before Linehan and Garrett get fired and get rid of the wide receivers....And the entire defense

All that said, Garrett is still the HC.....

Hope so
 
I think the Giants D will be in the top 5 or 6 this year, they have great corners, 2 stud DE's and the D line as a whole is as good as we will see. They spent a lot of money on that side of the ball and I think it will pay off for them.

I will wait to judge this offense for another game or so.

But, as usual, there will be plenty of overreaction & hot takes for the next couple of days. It usually calms by Wednesday. lol
