New York Giants: Breaking down the Chicago Bears on both sides of the ball

09/30/22 • 26 min

The guys got on together Thursday afternoon to take a look at where the New York Giants can look to attack the Chicago Bears. Adam and Andy discuss how both teams are in surprising 2-1 records three weeks into the year but the similarities do not stop there. Both squads have been run first on offense and stout on the defensive side of the ball.

There may still be questions about Daniel Jones, but Justin Fields seems miles away from a trusted signal caller. Wink Martindale will need to continue to rotate bodies and looks to create pressure and also contain the running game lead by Kahlil Herbert.

With Sterling Shepard done for the year, the guys agree that the wideout room is obviously thin BUT it simply cannot be the excuse for not opening up the playbook a bit more for Daniel Jones. Pressures and sacks will come, but when the pocket holds a player like Darius Slayton might be a key to stretching the field and the Bears defense.

New York Giants lose tough one late at home to Cooper Rush and the Cowboys

The guys grab their morning cup and settle in for the first difficult postgame podcast of the season. The Giants fell 23-16 at home to the Dallas Cowboys that felt strikingly similar to the first two games... except for the loss. The defense got back Kayvon Thibodeax and Azeez Ojulari but Wink Martindale's unit hit a few potholes on Monday night. While Evan Neal put possibly his worst game on tape to this point in his young career and undoubtably impacted the offense rhythm. Naturally, Daniel Jones is also up for discussion, who's performance offered nice moments but also suffered at the lack of hands from his receivers. For a team in evaluation mode, this game offered plenty to digest and little to praise.
