good post, I agree on most, but that fumble, one clip showed giant player had the ball and was on his back so he was down with possesion.-Think many underestimated the Giants and their defense. They confused Dalton all day and forced him to hold onto the ball too long. This was an area in which Dalton struggled early on after he replaced Dak.
-OL really had a poor day. Couldn't protect Dalton and the run game just couldn't get going. Bright side is, with Leonard Williams big day, he is going to cost the Giants even more to resign in the off-season.
-The book on Andy Dalton with Cincy was that he wasn't a big game QB. We saw this today. His accuracy was all over the place, where the Giants had multiple chances to intercept some of his passes. Gutsy performance, but he needed to play better. I don't aspect him returning next season.
Shultz was leading rec today for dallas, and he has been consistent all year. He did good,
but jones boys will have him back on the bench when jarwin is back.
-Dalton Schultz has probably been the most consistent starter throughout the yr. He wasn't even guaranteed a roster spot this year and he finally has broken out. Depth at the position at the start of the yr looked very thin, now it is a strength.
-Outside of the opening and last drive prior to half, thought the defense played well. Strong against the run, were able to get off the field throughout the day. However, some real bonehead penalties, what was Lewis thinking with that headbutt?
-Although more self-induced, Cowboy Defense still was able to generate more defensive turnovers. Wilson just has those natural instincts, where he is always around the football.
-Was somewhat disappointed with the lack of pressure today against a OL who really has struggled, especially lately. Daniel Jones had a clean pocket to work with the majority of the day.
-Was impressed with Diggs and his long speed. Slaton is perhaps the fastest player on the Giants team, where Diggs appeared to be able to match his speed down the field.
-I just don't see enough from our secondary players to warrant a 2nd contract. Team can upgrade and at a much lower cost.
-MM should of used the challenge flag, but as we have seen, many of these calls don't get overturned even with clear evidence. They usually go to how it was called on the field. Thought we got a bad break on the fumble late in the game.
Although disappointing, this is what this franchise truly needed, secure a top 10 pick. They have a war chest of picks and they are going to need it as this defense needs a major overhaul.
Go Washington as I do not want to hear it from the Giant fans all off-season long.
Cowboys pulled it out after that.
That is where if a team is hustling to the ball, a cowboy might have recovered that.
however if they had, kellen would have called 4 pass plays in a row, and they still fail to score.
Shultz was leading rec today for cowboys, he was one of the few who played good today.
Jones boys will put him back on bench as soon as jarwin is back.
