Not a bad game. I'm concerned about the run blocking from the first team OL, and we'll see about the secondary, but all around, was a pretty good effort, and they did some pretty good things. Far improvement over last year, in pretty much all areas.

Far improvement over last year, in pretty much all areas. just have to see how bad Engrams concussion is. Hopefully he 100 percent by week 1. What's he have 2 weeks and 2 days to heal up?? Thank God it wasn't something more serious Yes still a lot of problem areas. But you can easily see the major improvement over last two years in pre Season The ones didn't move the ball at all in those years. This year moving it and not having 3 top players and D looks good outside of that first drive or two

So much for Darnold lighting up the Giants. well he led two TD drives one a short field due to the fumble return Bec of Stewart but shut them down pretty much after that

Overall I was happy with the performance tonight.
- Like I said before, this offense will look WAY different when OBJ and Barkley are added to the fold. Are you gonna stack the box giving Barkley nowhere to run but leave Odell one V one? Defenses will have their hands full.
- Stewart playing like crap was a blessing in disguise. His play is piss poor. He was brought in to be a mentor to Barkley and for short yardage. Well, he cant do the latter and I dont think Saquon needs much mentoring. Gallman outplaying Stewart will help his case come week 1.
- Latimer looks like he can be a big help on the outside, way better than Roger Lewis.
- Defense is a hit or miss. Apple being picked on by a rookie is troubling. Imagine what Brees, Matt Ryan, Wentz, Luck, etc are gonna do to him.
- Hopefully we never see Hunter Sharpe on offense.

Lol hunter sharpe is going to for sure be a love/hate player. Mostly hate. That punt return TD the lane was wide open, pure speed right to the house, I think a lot of guys would score there.

Stewart fumbled which is all on him but other than that it was the oline. The second team oline played better vs the jets ones in the beginning of the 3rd quarter.

I will say that the worst thing about Game Day threads is the knee JERK (pun intended) reactions. One play or series and the team is crap for the whole up coming season. Get a grip and stop acting like dopes.

Stewart brings nothing to the table. There is no room for one dimensional RBs in today’s league. You aren’t going to get the blocks most of the time. 240 pounds needs to be able to fight for a yard or two. Super limited player, does not play specials, has also missed assignments blocking this pre-season. Doesn’t catch and essentially a useless option on checkdowns. He is beyond done and it’s a slap in the face to be giving him starting snaps. Hasn’t earned his spot at all.

I think Greco and Jones should have gotten a shot with the ones at RG but that wont happen because of the contract we gave him. It is really frustrating.

Engram out for the rest of the day with a concussion. Hoping two weeks is enough time for him to recover, these concussions can be lengthy sometimes.

But he will be a situational player and I am hoping he is an old vet just taking it easy in the preseason. Also the run blocking was putrid last night. None of the RBs did anything in the 1st half.

What is the situation where he would be used? Short yardage? He can’t get a yard. The other RBs run tougher and they can all catch. He has no utility and should not be dressed any longer.

I remember when he came in he stressed taking care of "the body". I think maybe he is doing that in the preseason games. You could very well be spot on with your assessment. I prefer to wait and see.

Overall I thought the performance was good...I liked coach Shurmer's play selection of course he's not going to show all his cards in the preseason but I liked what I did see. I thought Eli played pretty well and the defense looked better but after all we were playing the Jets. My concerns continue to be the OL especially the right side. There were hardly any holes for the running backs and Eli was pressured a lot that is why a lot of rollouts were called. Lastly I'm concerned about the health of Barkley and Engram. I will not put too much stock in preseason play especially on the offense side of the ball because we did not see our full arsenal of weapons on the field. I will keep my expectations tempered because of a new offensive and defensive schemes and the questions about the health of Barkley and Engram before we even get out of the gate.

Didn't see the game, just the highlights & comments from you guys. The O moved the ball pretty well for the most part from what I saw in the highlights. Both Eli & Webb underthrew the WRs on both long plays, a few yds further & those are TDs to the house. Stewart fumble cost us another 3-7 pts. I gotta believe that with both SB & OBJ in the lineup, a few of those RZ trips that ended up as FGs, are TDs with both of them in the lineup. I actually am way more confident in the O being able to put up pts this yr than the D being able to hold teams under 20. I think this may be a yr where the O has to bail out the D in a few games. Kinda like Atl did in a couple of yrs ago, though I don't think our D is gonna be as bad as that Atl D was. I just think we may have to score 26+ a game to offset the 21-23 the D might give up per game. Hope I'm wrong & we end up having a top 15 D this yr to go along with the top 15 O I believe we will have this yr.
