The Giants are alone in second place in the NFC East and no one can question this formula. But if the Giants need to throw it to win it, can they?
“At the end of the day, the objective is to win the game,’’ Slayton said. “Whether we have to throw it 50 times or run it 50 times, I think we’re all on the same page.’’
For now, the pages are filled with running plays. As long as his defense can keep the game close and the Giants are never too far behind, Daboll at this point looks at the running game as the safest and best option.The thought when Daboll took over as head coach was that he would have a considerable effect on Jones, perhaps akin to the way Daboll helped mold Josh Allen into a star in Buffalo.
What this staff has concentrated on with Jones is playing to his strengths. It should be noted that this group has what the previous two staffs did not often enjoy: a healthy Barkley. Jones excels in play-action and that call is greatly enhanced when the running back is such a dominant threat. The Giants ran it 47 times to grind to their latest victory, their most rushes in a game in 12 years.Daboll did not expect his first Giants offense to be this reliant on the run.
Can Jones throw the Giants to success? The Seahawks limited Barkley to 53 yards and Jones was sacked five times as he threw 31 times in a 27-13 loss. There will come a time when Jones is asked to do more than he did to beat the Texans — throwing it 17 times in the NFL today is not the norm. The formula, thus far, is working.
