Slow-motion clip of Malik Nabers' TD vs. Cleveland is simply spectacular
The rookie can simply do no wrong. The NY Giants are playing quite well against the Cleveland Browns in Week 3, entering the halftime break up 21-7. Daniel Jones is playing well, and so is Devin Singletary on offense. However, the star of the show - as expected - has been Malik Nabers. He is just unreal.
In the second quarter, Nabers came down with an unreal grab, stealing the ball back from a Cleveland defensive back who thought he picked off Jones. Later on in the drive, Nabers got everyone off their feet with an acrobatic grab from Jones for the second touchdown of his career. This was a head-turning play from Nabers to give his team the lead:
Malik Nabers is putting on a show for the Giants against the Browns
In the clip above courtesy of Talkin' Giants' Bobby Skinner, you can see how special the first grab was, but the TD was just as impressive. He leaped high into the sky to come down with the ball and then he managed to get a second foot down before falling out of bounds.
How much fun is it to watch this youngster play? In the first half alone, Nabers posted six receptions for 66 yards and two touchdowns. This came after he hauled in 10 balls for 127 yards and a touchdown in the heartbreaking Week 2 loss to the Commanders.
You've got to give Jones a ton of credit too, as he threw for 178 yards and two touchdowns in the first half vs. the Browns. How about the play-calling from Brian Daboll too? Finally, this team is looking sharp on both sides of the ball, with the defense making life rough for Deshaun Watson. When the Giants play like this, it's awesome for the fanbase and it shows this team is moving in the right direction. Let's hope this feeling lasts.
