Compared to his start in Seattle, Colt McCoy looked like a much more confident quarterback. McCoy took risks downfield and connected on a few of them.

Despite only coming away with six points, the Giants had multiple successful drives into the red zone, but it was finishing that remains an issue for this offense.

McCoy finished the game with 221 yards, but no touchdown passes. McCoy’s top target finished with four passes for 74 yards. While these are not impressive numbers, it is an improvement from the team’s offensive performance against Seattle.

With the possibility of McCoy having to start next week as well, it’s good to see the offense improving.
