John Mara and the Tisch household didn’t take the pilot’s recommendation.
Not but anyway.
Brian Daboll was nonetheless the Giants’ head coach on Monday morning, regardless of a aircraft carrying Sunday’s message “MR MARA ENOUGH – PLZ FIX THIS DUMPSTER FIRE” over MetLife Stadium and quite a few followers carrying paper baggage over their heads.
Mara and the Tisches are sitting by and watching as Joe Schoen’s Giants (2-11) limp in the direction of what guarantees to be a ninth straight loss on Sunday in opposition to the Baltimore Ravens in New Jersey.
Lamar Jackson‘s Ravens (8-5) opened as 14-point favorites in the Vegas sportsbooks, and the line already has moved to 14.5. Baltimore incredibly is -1400 on the MoneyLine, which means a $10 bet on the Ravens to win would earn just 71 cents.
That would have been almost enough to buy a secondary market to Sunday’s Giants recreation.
The upcoming defeat will drop the Giants to 0-8 at house this season. Then they’ll have an opportunity to develop into the primary NFL crew to complete 0-9 at house in a season once they host the Indianapolis Colts in Week 17.
“We’ve got to do a better job ultimately on gameday,” Daboll stated throughout his Zoom press convention early Monday afternoon.
No kidding.
Drew Lock “will be our quarterback this week unless he can’t because of injury,” Daboll stated.
Lock was present process MRIs Monday for “a couple things” after throwing 49 passes and taking a beating in Sunday’s 14-11 loss to the New Orleans Saints.
Nevertheless it actually doesn’t matter at this level.
Daboll’s offense ranks useless final in scoring at 14.9 factors per recreation. No different NFL crew is scoring fewer than 17 factors per recreation.
On Sunday, Lock turned the primary NFL quarterback since Cam Newton in 2017 to have his first eight passes fall incomplete. Two had been drops.
His third move of the sport was full to Wan’Dale Robinson however was negated because of an unlawful formation penalty on left deal with Josh Ezeudu.
Daboll’s Giants have dedicated 25 accepted penalties the final two weeks.
It takes work to be this unhealthy.
Daboll’s offense has failed to attain a landing within the first half in eight of their 13 video games this season, an absurd statistic for a head coach who was employed for his offensive acumen.
They’ve additionally failed to attain a landing within the first three quarters of six video games, one other ridiculous actuality.
The Giants’ protection simply set an NFL file streak of 11 consecutive video games with out an interception earlier than Tre Hawkins snapped it with a decide of Derek Carr on Sunday.
Accidents additionally proceed to mount for a crew that’s already down a slew of key gamers and starters.
Left guard Jon Runyan Jr. (proper ankle) is “sore” and “week to week, maybe more than week to week,” Daboll stated. Middle John Michael Schmitz’s (neck) MRI “looks OK, but “he’s sore.” And security Tyler Nubin has an ankle damage and an undetermined standing.
That’s along with left deal with Andrew Thomas (foot), defensive deal with Dexter Lawrence (elbow), tight finish Theo Johnson (foot) and defensive deal with D.J. Davidson (shoulder) being out for the season. Linebacker Bobby Okereke (again) is week to week.
And former beginning quarterback Daniel Jones, in fact, is on the Minnesota Vikings.
