1. Brian Daboll must get things right for the MNF matchup in Week 3

You know what would be nice? To see the Giants put together a complete game of quality football. When was the last time we saw that happen? It feels like it has been years and it’s on Daboll and his coaching staff to try and fix this. In the game against the Panthers, the slow start on offense was brutal to watch.

The Giants were gifted with great field position early on, but things ended with Gano field goals instead of touchdowns. If NY wants to make a serious push for the postseason, this offense needs to turn these gifts into six instead of three. That’s going to be on Jones and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka.

Kafka didn’t have his best game either, as fans are not happy with some of the decision he made in calling plays. All in all, the Giants have to make plenty of improvements before the Dallas Cowboys head to MetLife Stadium. Just because Cooper Rush will start instead of Dak Prescott, it doesn’t mean this will be a ‘gimme’ game for NY. They have to be better.
