3. NY Giants RG Mark Glowinski

While we are incredibly optimistic about the future of Hawkins, there is zero reason to be confident about Mark Glowinski. Glowinski should be benched for Sunday night's performance, and we should never be subjected to watching him play offensive line for the New York Giants again.

Glowinski's stat line from Sunday reads nine pressures, five hurries, three sacks, and a QB hit. That is truly dreadful. PFF gives offensive linemen pass-blocking grades from each game on a scale from 1-100. Glowinski received a 1.0. Yes, you read that right. That grade is like in school when you get zero questions on a quiz, but the teacher gives you one pity point for writing your name. This sounds hyperbolic, but Glowinski couldn't have pass-blocked any worse.

This summer, the Giants utilized a guard rotation between Ben Bredeson, Josh Ezeudu, and Glowinski. They abandoned the rotation for the season opener, giving the starting nods to Glowinski and Bredeson. Though it's concerning Ezeudu couldn't beat out Bredeson this summer, Ezeudu should start over the dreadful guard in Glowinski Sunday in Arizona.
