Got to say it, in the end...Daniel Jones legs won this game. 2-0 my fellow Jint fans!!!! Hmm. Ya think Gano's legs, which scored 13 pts, might've helped a bit? No....field goals are a teams failure to score 6. When you kick field goals, your defense wins the game.

Or a real offense that can put up 30+. I like what we've done, and figuring out how to win close games says a lot about this coaching staff. But the ol has looked horrible for 2 of the 4 halves so far. The d might be able to handle the offenses we've faced, but unless we get some help on the ol, we are not winning games against any decent offense. Hiccups aside, I still think the offensive line has been improved dramatically... Short yardage has become a high % conversion. Jones does have time to throw. They're actually controlling the LOS instead of being controlled. We're 0-2 right now with last year's OL. Wouldn't say dramatically, but you can see more success in assignments and as you say, not being manhandled at the line....if we can get the interior better at setting the pocket, we might start seeing more than short passes and happy feet.

They don't even have the offense or defense completely down the coaches are doing a greta job and the players are playing pretty clean smart ball they might get beat on the OL but I think it can get cleaned up with some more games under their belt winning while learning is gonna be big for this team later on. there not beating themselves in spite of a bunch of holes here and there. Coaching is very good yes! Thes games were losses in the past, they couldn't take a game that the opponent was trying to give them, now they have taken 2.

Uh, that's the corrollary to my point .. that it was NOT Jones' legs or any other appendage of his that won the game. But he WAS good enough to not lose.

Thank God that DB dropped that easy pick 6 at the end of the 1st half. Even the announcers were like "What was Daniel doing there?"

Sealed the win was indeed the better word...apologies, and hopefully you can get over this and move on.

Boy they had that point spread perfect. 2 wins by a total of 4 points. Lets Go Big Blue ! It went to minus one for the Panthers right before game time ouch for anyone taking the Panther +2.

Just finished the game.. OH YEAH!! 2-0 The Clint Eastwood offense. The Good ( sometimes really good) The Bad ( sometimes really bad) and the Ugly. ( sometimes really ugly) I love the fight these guys have and the D today overall was really good. You hold a team to 16 and the offense has to do enough to win that game . Summed up the offense perfectly. The defense has been a nice surprise especially on the back end with the DBs. Any fan hating on Love now needs to get their head examined..

Love doesn't have speed which limits him in pass coverage. But he's a terrific tackler.

Have no idea how Wink is doing it on defense with our personnel For real…Wink must be a magician of some sort Wink's is a terrific defensive schemer. His players execute it. Wink in gets his right place at the right time.

Any fan hating on Love now needs to get their head examined.. the offense took a step back this week. At least from a my point of confidence in them. The D is making some critical plays which so refreshing to see. Bummed about LW tho. See what happens there.

I'm pretty impressed with the adjustments at halftime both games. After years of coming out in the second half doing the same exact thing to same result, this is a breath of fresh air. I'm not sure if they are just executing better in the second half or if they are calling things differently; either way they are making the plays they need to make and are 2-0 to show for it.
I do think theres a line between creative and gimmicky, sometimes Kafka looks like he is flirting with it. They will need to clean up a lot of things come Monday night.
It was said when Wink was hired theres going to be times you are screaming at the TV because guys are wide open and thats been true. But he has been aggressive and creative and trusts his players, even when key guys are out. Wink seems like a fit here.

Wink seems like a fit here. yeah they are making some changes at half time the players are executing better at times. Most offenses will score points. But two weeks and the NYGs D is holding the opposition to 20 and 16 points. Thats a great start!!

But he has been aggressive and creative and trusts his players, even when key guys are out. Wink seems like a fit here. Big difference between Wink and Kafka. As Wink pressures opponent defenses, while Kafka doesn't pressure opponent offenses in the first half of games. Daboll and Kafka have to get the Giants first-half offense straightened-out. Not providing Jones with more protection so he can throw the ball downfield will. Not that impressed with the offense in the second-half. Yes, Jones threw the ball downfield but too many completed passes were into extremely tight-windows because the plays did not get the receivers space to catch the ball. With the Giants now 2-0, the coaching has to up their game if the Giants are going to reach my 12-plus win prediction. Can't continue to average 2 points per quarter in the first-half of games.

The Giants dominated Carolina in time of possession 36-minutes to 24-minutes. Hope we see that a lot this season.
