-Thought they did have a nice opening drive, which they really have struggled with slow starts in the past.
-OL was excellent in pass protection as Dak had a real nice clean pocket throughout the night, Tyron looked real good on the move.
-Run game was solid, but wasn’t dominate by any means.
-Credit Cooks for getting a huge PI penalty with a veteran move.
-Dak did an excellent job of protecting the football, outside 1 pass thought nothing was in harm’s way. His accuracy wasn’t great, but the conditions were very bad.
-Really liked the use of Turpin, was screaming for Moore to use him all last year.
-Both TE’s really struggled with dropped passes, Hendershot dropped a TD and Ferguson dropped a key third down deep in their zone.
-Hard game to evaluate MM as a playcaller as the game was out of hand in the 1st quarter.
Defense
-Outside of that poor opening drive, they played elite defense in every area.
-Run defense was night and day better after that opening drive. DLaw played the read option far better this time.
-Pass rush was downright scary, but it pretty much all came against Evan Neil and the Guards who struggled badly against our front.
-Don’t discount the coverage in the secondary to all these pressures and sacks.
-Our secondary was just as awesome as the pass rush creating multiple turnovers. Give Diggs his props with that hit against Barkley, hell of a hit that cause an interception
-Thought Thomas/Bell/Clark all flashed.
Special Teams
-Thomas with that FG block that led to the 1st TD was an absolute back breaker for the Giants.
-Our kicker missed the 1st extra point, but was excellent afterwards. The Giant money kicker struggled, which tells us how bad the conditions were, good sign for Audrey.
