Lex: Giants Risers & Fallers in The Thrilling 23-17 Win

The New York G-Men with another nail-biting victory in the final moments to steal a win in Jacksonville. In the waning moments, Big Blue, with time running out, pulled out a narrow victory verse the Jacksonville Jaguars. Now the Giants are (6-1), and we are here to assess the stock report of several players.

“First time in Giants history that a QB and RB rushed for 100+ yards in a game. It is the Giants franchise’s third such feat by a tandem rushers. Lets take a deeper dive into the hero of the Jacksonville win.” — Giants Gridiron

Saquon Barkley and Daniel Jones became the third tandem of rushers to each top 100 rushing yards in a game in Big Blue’s history, while this is the first time a Giants QB has been one of those players. It’s the third time this season that Barkley has topped the 100-yard rushing mark, who is now averaging 103.7 yards on the ground per game this year for the Giants.” — Giants Gridiron

Giants Stock Report

Stock Up

Julian Love

Julian Love does everything, he’s all over the field, and he’s consistently reliable. Julian did get beat once by Evan Engram, but he immediately corrected his mistake and saved a touchdown the next time the Jaguars and Engram went after him. He also recovered a fumble in the end-zone, helping to prevent a Jacksonville score, and led the team with nine tackles.

Graham Gano

The man is so automatic that a second thought is never even given to his field goal or PAT attempts. Gano went 3/3 on his field goal attempts and 2/2 on his point-after attempts in Week seven.

Stock Down

Leonard Williams

Leonard Williams is still working his way back from a knee injury, but his performance on Sunday left a bit to be desired. The Jaguars were able to run all over the G-Men, routinely confusing the defensive line, and The Big Cat hardly factored in. He finished the game with zero tackles and one QB hit.

Marcus Johnson

Johnson is a week removed from dropping a touchdown and again had two drops at Jacksonville. One of those catch attempts could have potentially been a touchdown. Instead, Marcus ended the game with zero receptions on three targets. The fourth-and-2 drop was so bad that Daniel Jones, who rarely shows emotion, had some choice words for which he later apologized.


Daboll’s “Only One Way For a Football Team to Handle Success.”

“Focus on the process,” Daboll repeated today, for who knows how many times he has done so since training camp began. “I know I sound like a broken record, but this league humbles you very quickly. As soon as you’re one with this game and as soon as Mondays are over, you put it to bed and focus on your next opponent. They’re all good in this league. Every game is hard, you’re going to get everybody’s best each week, regardless of your record. You continue to prepare the way you know how to prepare to put yourself in the best position possible. That’s really all it is.”

“Focusing on things that happened in the past does you no good. You’ve got to learn from them. Thinking about things that could happen in the future does you no good because you better stay in the present and focus on the things you can control. That’s something that I’ve reached out to our players, our staff, and to myself. I think that takes discipline and a consistent approach to do that daily.”
