Diggs is now getting the bulk of the work and is currently the #3 leading Rusher in the SEC. Diggs had 140 Yards and a TD vs Missouri. Had several nice runs in the game. Or the defenses they've faced have sucked Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diggs would rumble for 200 Yards and 3 TDs vs usc. He's hard to bring down. Looks like he's lost a little speed though since his injury and he has put on a few pounds. He was tearing it up at Notre Dame before his injury. He's healthy again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not great defense though........Georgia is close, but they haven't faced an offensive juggernaut yet. Bama, FSU and Texas have given up points and lots of chunk plays. In today's world of college football you just want your defense to get a couple stops and come up with some big plays. Hold people to 3 points instead of 7. No one is dominating!

How’s DT playing? Haven’t followed since FR season. Jadyn Proctor, true fr starting at LT wow. Then I saw his size and 247 rating. Woooow.

The shift left, grossly failed. The lone rb ran a flat route and the Center was so inept blocking that his man reached Jones about the same time as the DE! Not sure about this, but I think the little Giants have one TD in the first half… this season. Rant over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've lived in Florida my whole life, but my entire extended family lives up there so I will always root for the Giants. Daniel Jones hasn't been great, but he is far from being the straw breaking the camel's back. The offensive line is atrocious. They can't block, they can't protect Jones, they can't do much right and don't really look like an NFL-caliber line. Having a bad offensive line opens the floodgates to a multitude of other issues. Not only can your offense not score or even sustain drives, but it puts immense pressure on your defense and special teams to try to win the game themselves. When they barely have time to get a drink of water or stretch because the offense keeps turning over the ball over and over again, or punting within 6-7 plays, they wear down. The Giants' defense is good enough to win a ballgame if their offensive performance is even just serviceable. But they don't even have that. So what needs to happen? First and foremost: Bobby Johnson has to be shown the door. There is no reason for an NFL OL to play this poorly. Continue drafting offensive linemen until a combination that works is found. Evan Neal is perilously close to bust-territory at this juncture. I don't want to fire Brian Daboll or Mike Kafka yet, but their seats need to be getting a little warmer. It's one thing to say that the Giants' offensive line is historically bad and desperately needs to press the reset button. But, they've been trying to solve this problem for a decade, and it still hasn't improved; in fact, it has regressed. At some point, you have to look at the person coaching the position and decide to make a change. The Giants are good enough defensively to win ballgames, but they are probably still at least 3 years away from competing for anything past the divisional round with these constant offensive implosions. Will it be mended, only time will tell. #TogetherBlue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The offensive line is atrocious. They can't block, they can't protect Jones, they can't do much right and don't really look like an NFL-caliber line. Agreed and it’s not just this season. Jones does eat the ball too much, but can’t blame him 24-7. When you’re losing often, you want to make plays. Eli and Simms got sacked a lot also for different reasons, but each matured and knew their offense very well… plus they had quality coaches to teach!

RedZone Posted October 16, 2023 Author Report Share Posted October 16, 2023 LSU will play Army this week...then an off week. Then > the gumps at their house in what should be the college football game of the year. Who can forget last year's game, not me. Sadly, I won't be able to watch the game though because I'll be "driving" to the beach. I gotta get out more 😂😂😂 #goTigers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedZone Posted November 2, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 2, 2023 Alabama is a 3 point favorite @ home vs the Tiger. Note: LSU will be without a couple of defensive starters vs Alabama. Not real great news, but then again our defense is not all that anyways. "Defensive tackle Mekhi Wingo, a third-team All-American in 2022, had surgery and is out for the remainder of the regular season, Kelly said Monday. LSU cornerback and fourth-leading tackler Zy Alexander hurt his left leg on Oct. 21 against Army and won’t participate in Saturday night’s game."
