Why we lost (besides Twill's lack of awareness)

[ThoughtExperiment]

this line is overrated, especially when they face off against big uglies with 300 pounders in the middle.

I was very disappointed in them yesterday. Yes, the Giants spent money in the offseason, but that was a terrible defense last year and I can't believe how they handled us up front.

we also have a very generic offense with a very conservative approach. The bend but dont break attitude that teams play with on defense we use on offense.
I would rather lose by 20 points taking some shots than try the same old shit we have done the last few years.

We are not winning the Super Bowl. Lets see exactly what we have in Dak if possible

Yes, the defense is held together by glue and rubber bands, but the offensive line cost us this game. Free was a fucking turnstile, and Collins had two holding calls that ruined consecutive drives in the 4th. Martin false starting at home on the last drive? Inexcusable. Holes opened for Zeke? Next to none. Hell, the much less heralded Giants o-line gashed holes left and right, even in obvious run situations late in the 4th. Disgraceful.

Yep, I was thinking same thing. Was not a good day for Free and Collins at all. I really wonder how much longer they'll stick with Collins at LG. Same for Free at RT.

It was super obvious the giants were trying to shut down EE, and make Dak beat them with his arm. Yet, where was Dez? It boggles my mind we don't use Dez like he's a top flight WR. We should almost be FORCING the ball to him.

The Giants d-line could end up being one of the best run-stopping lines this season. Our run game isn't *that* bad.

boggles mine too and it seems to happen a lot over the years

how do teams take out the running game and our #1 receiver thats supposedly top 5 in the NFL?

8 in the box plus double coverage on Dez leaves 1 defender. Shouldn't that be exploitable?

It's a great question. How in the fuck do you not take advantage of a defense doubling teaming your #1 while at the same time stacking the box to stop the run? Only Garrett's process could account for such epic failure at basic offensive exploiting. "Take what the defense gives you" also doesn't make any sense because in this situation you should score at will with your other players being left wide open. I just still cannot see what is being built here.

Romo made TWill look like the next Alvin Harper when that shit was happening before.

Just shows how little Garrett actually does.
