The Giants are in trouble because they are on the verge of being virtually eliminated from any playoff possibilities. Their 3-7 record could have been better, but when the defense has played well enough to win, the team has made mistakes in other areas. Case in point – last week they had a chance to win late against San Francisco, even though they had to endure no less than five Eli Manning interceptions. But they were halted on their final drive by, you guessed it, an interception. Offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo was hoping that Manning could cure himself of that kind of thing, and that was one of the reasons behind the idea of installing a west coast offense. It required Manning to take short drops and get rid of the ball right away. Of course, as most BetAnySports customers are well aware, if you’re not accurate, or rush your decisions, you stand a chance of getting picked.
His counterpart, Tony Romo, is having a pleasant experience, unless you consider that his back is flaring up. Against Jacksonville he returned from cracking two small bones in the back, less than a year after he had been operated on. He is very effective when he is in there (69% completions), because he can now pick better spots to throw. And that is because he has a bona fide MVP candidate in the backfield in DeMarco Murray, who had a lead of 182 yards over Le’Veon Bell in the rushing race. That’s quite amazing, as is the face that Dallas has converted on 51% of their third downs. The Giants have been very generous to opposing ground attacks, allowing just shy of five yards a carry, so when it comes to that face-off between strength and weakness, the Cowboys would seem to have a big edge in that department.
NFL bettors at BetAnySports NFL Sportsbooks who have followed the most effective west coast offenses through the years know that it’s not all about passing the ball; rushing has to be a major component to it. So it makes sense that the Giants feel they are better equipped to do battle when they have Rashad Jennings in the lineup. When it comes to a assertive back who can wear an opposing defense down, he is the guy Manning has to be able to count on. He has been dealing with knee issues, and came back against the Niners to gain 59 yards. ideally he will do better against Dallas.
We’re not going to sit here and tell you that Tom Coughlin is shaking in his boots, not with two Super Bowl championships under his belt, but he might not get past this season if he misses the playoffs yet again (this would be the fifth time in six years). Coughlin is 69 years old and may not be the guy that management looks to when it comes to the “future.” And the future is exactly what they will have to look toward if they lose on Sunday night.
