That looked almost like a groundhog day. That guy doesn't have any pass rush moves. If you can't change up your tactic, how are you supposed to make it difficult on the tackle? He made Tyron look like the Hoover Dam.

That was an embarrassment for the Giants.

Best in the game. #77

Vernon can thank Wake, Suh and others in Miami making the Giants think he was more than just above average.
He flashed early on in his career, but never built on that.

Vernon torched Smith last year in Miami.

I'm just gonna out on a limb and say he seemed to do his job.


I don't know what narrative this guy is tweeting about. Did anybody criticize Tyron for pass protection?

Vernon had more success against the run than the pass.

It was unblocked blitzers or the obvious Doug Free that made Dak's life difficult.

I don't think anyone can say otherwise. He owned Vernon. Some of the sacks were Dak holding on to the ball and shuffling himself into sack lanes. Overall it was just a tough hard fought game. Gotta tip our hats and move forward

In Pass Pro yes, but he allowed Vernon to slip off his block a few times in the run game.

So maybe Olivier Vernon is ALSO one the game's best linemen. Please point to history's lone perfect left tackle. <tick-tick-tick...>

Tyron Smith played about as good a game as any team could hope to get out of one the most demanding positions in all of sports.
