I think he is getting stronger each week. I really expect him to be a factor as the season goes

I hope he does keep it up. They are going to need him to step up even more when teams limit Thomas. Right now I trust him more than Ginn.

Side note - shout out to Tony Romo (who actually studies film) on mentioning Rankins presence in the trenches. It doesn't show on the stat sheet, but he's been very good in New Orleans.
Rankin's had a strong game yesterday. I mentioned his play multiple times. He hadn't been strong the entire year, but let's hope it continues. BTW I really like stallworth too

Or the entire defense, right? Seriously, Latt is getting shutdown again ND the defense, as a whole, had it's best game of the year

The dline had a really good game yesterday, but pretty sure the Giants are weak on oline. If I'm wrong on that someone correct me, but thought I've read that is a weakness for them

Yeah, their O-line is bad. That's why Manning got rid of the football in less than 2 seconds. Nonetheless, our d-line played solid game. In my opinion Coleman and Anzalone didn't have great game. Anzalone often looks lost and shows bad tackling technique. There was one situation that showed great and bad tackling on the same play. Anzalone tackled guy (Barkley?) with his shoulder and did nothing to stop him until Robertson wrapped him up and stopped him on the spot. Coleman is just one step late on most plays. Bell surprised me. Quicker, more decisive... I like what he showed me yesterday.

Our D will get its test vs Baltimore. Holy no moly. Physical o-line with a good deep passing game. We will see where this D is by then.

The D is coming along. I can't clown them if they ain't acting like clowns.

The one position that is hurting us more in the passing game is the inconsistency at TE. We have to address this in the off-season...

With Ingram coming back it will not be as bad due to the fact that both are better in the run blocking department than being a true threat in the passing game. Two weeks that Watson should have had a TD...

I’m glad we were able to put something together offensively that didn’t rely on us wearing M Thomas out. Going forward I think we will see more of CM and TS in the 3 WR sets with M Thomas.

I thought Taysom Hill adds a element that most of the NFL defenses aren't ready to handle. That's saying a lot because the Giants have a solid defense.

Some of those play calls (see fake punt) and packages set up for TH were nice. This guy is a damn good athlete.

Reminds me of Kordell Stewart aka SLASH from back in the day.

Notice how the Ravens are trying to use Lamar Jackson in the same capacity, with limited results of course...
