I don't make much of preseason (only watched 2 halfs), but....
I watched Bills 1st half and Giants 1st half. Unbelievable difference. Bills and Allen looked well oiled and ready to rock.. Giants just looked, well you saw it...
Just very discouraging way to go into the season.

The Bills have arrived and the NYGs are still driving to their destination. Just dont know what that destination it

Jones looked sharp outside of the red zone INT targeting Engram - (17-for-22, 135 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT) was 7-for-8 with a TD on his two-minute drive. Not bad at all considering half the key starters were missing on offense.
Line play didn't look great and half the offense is injured or missing which is the bigger concern for me...was about what I expected.

If he keeps this up he will be a back up if he's lucky. he has done it way too many times. Not sure why but he just cant help himself to try and make the big "hero play".

Starting to look like the car is sputtering and is about ready to break down. Gettleman is driving and Judge is in the passenger seat. Ultimately it’s actually ALL Mara.

Jones looked more stable when getting sacked...better ball security. I was happy to see that because it's my primary concern with Jones. He should have thrown the ball away on the INT play. It was 3rd down and Jones was about to get sacked. It's preseason so I just think he wanted to sling it in there.

We’re talking about how much better our QB looks not when throwing TD’s, first downs, etc but being sacked. It’s a valid assessment but my god…this is how miserable things are. The bright side is that it was “only” pre season. I’m sure they weren’t really trying, come Denver (who had a worse record than us last year) we’ll dominate and this team will show the playoff caliber potential that a lot of homers think we have.

Giants just looked, well you saw it... Just very discouraging way to go into the season. Difference: Good FO - Bills Bad FO - Giants What I see: Subpar OL play won't cut it against good teams or even average teams. Jones is OK. His ceiling is game manager or backup. Not good for the 6th overall pick. His namesake counterpart outplayed him in the game and he is a rookie.The DL played well but still got gashed by their no-name rb.. Speaking of the OL does Dave actually think we are going to pick up anything of quality? Other teams cuts are players they think aren't good enough to even be backups. He could beg the retirees to come back, that might help

He has done similar things in his two during the reg season.

It's preseason so I just think he wanted to sling it in there. That was his MO in college too. That is why guys liked him so much. He could take a sack like no other quarterback and gets right back up. He's tough. Maybe he takes the sacks because he has no pocket awarness? That is what I see over and over. At some point you have to stop taking sacks and start making plays. That is a difference between a backup and a franchise QB. How long is DJ going to wait for an oline? He has to play better. With that said I am hoping getting weapons back at the skills position opens things up. Getting Barkley and Gollday back will help him immensely.

Giants just looked, well you saw it... Just very discouraging way to go into the season. Bills have talent and stability. Giants talent is dwindling it was 3 weapons out now it is 5 and the, OL looks like it went back wards maybe they aren't talented enough maybe the coaching upheaval at that spot could be the cause. Stability is big for any roster and bigger for a young roster Giants used to be the model of stability now they are the model of what not to do.

you didnt need a preseason game to see that just look at last year's season. The Bills have arrived and the NYGs are still driving to their destination. Just dont know what that destination it Driving? Starting to look like the car is sputtering and is about ready to break down. Gettleman is driving and Judge is in the passenger seat. Ultimately it’s actually ALL Mara. You give Judge too much credit. He has proven nothing except he is a good ST coach. In his post interview he used the "I need to check the tape" line. They are all responsible. I do agree DG needs to go his time has passed They need too stop looking for old school GMs. I would honestly look at Brian Gaine from Buffalo if I had the choice.

beyond the jones and oline concerns, without golladay, barkley, and rudolph, we still have seemingly no playmakers. i felt like our starting team was the 2nd and 3rd string. there just isnt much there, and slayton was just awful yesterday, im hoping he just still needs to get in gear for game time. im a brightwell fan, i think that kid has potential, but i didnt see much spark from the running backs either.
eh, im not gonna damn the whole thing over the first sorta real half of football, but it doesnt look like anything over what we were last year.
again, its just one half, im sure theyll get it rolling a bit better across the board, but we definitely dont look as ready as a lot of other teams ive seen in preseason.

Jets offense looks better

Jets already have the better QB, better LT, and better WRs. Their offense is much better than the Giants and will most likely win more games than the Giants will.
We better all really watch college this season, as we'll be trading for the #1 pick to find the best QB available this year.

No need to trade for it.

It also helps that Josh Allen and the Bills starters were going against the bottom of the Packers roster as none of their starters even dressed for the game.

It looks like last year because it's the same players for the most part. All of the additions are hurt, with a patchwork ol.
