2. You can tell Brian Daboll isn’t happy with the offense’s play

Daboll is always going to take responsibility for how NY performs and he’ll never throw anyone under the bus. However, after the Week 13 tie, Daboll look quite annoyed during his press conference with how things shaped out. There were so many chances for the offense to lock in a win, but they stumbled.

On both offense and defense, the Commanders called better plays than the Giants. Daboll and Co. were out-coached, which was a bummer to see, especially with this game being played in front of a rockin’ crowd in East Rutherford. The Giants have to take advantage of playing at home, yet they’re not doing so.

Daboll is the head coach and he has to answer to the good and bad from this team. Kafka’s effort and job performance is on him. If Daboll doesn’t think things have been good enough, then he needs to make a switch. For now, though, Kafka’s play-calling duties are safe, with Daboll saying he has full trust in his OC and the guys trying to make plays for him. We’ll see how long that lasts.
