Baldy Breakdowns: Giants Are Running A "McAdoo 2.0 (Shula)" Offense

[Saca312]

Thought this was interesting. Pretty much roasts the Giants for being trash and making the Saints defense look really good when in all honesty it was ineptitude of playcalling and Eli Manning holding them back.

It's great.

Giants offense terrible

[Udogg]

That's depressing.  I mean good for us.. but as a fan of football , that is horrible to watch. 

[Moo Daeng]

Gettleman got both his favorite crappy OC at the same time. Good luck with that.

[Pejorative Miscreant]

Trap game.

Rivera needs to post sumthin in the locker-room to motivate the guys.   I say we win by fiddy

A big part of the issue is a crappy offensive line that doesn't give Eli time to throw down the field. So he is left with short passes as his option which just loads the box and kills the running. When the line does hold, Eli is likely so unwilling to trust it he takes the easy checkdowns.

As for the offense, didn't Shurmur always work in a West coast offense which emphasizes short timing passes? How does that relate to the Coryell system Shula ran here for years.? Seems to me that the play call was good and the Giants had OBJ wide open. Eli was the problem at least on the first video.

The quick shots are a product of the horrid oline though. It’s hard getting explosive plays when your oline is trash and you have a human statue at qb. I remember watching that game and calling blitzes on 3rd and long and it would happen every time. Can’t say enough how AWFUL their oline is.

I saw on Twitter that Baldy was talking Panthers today on local ESPN radio. I'll post the link when it's available.

Damn, I’d hate for Baldinger to talk to me like that.  “I’m not mad, I’m just... disappointed.”

Absolutely. Giants coming to town with nothing to lose, no pressure on them and media saying season's over. Look out !

[Bartin]

Problem looks more like Eli than the offense itself. He’s shellshocked and going to checkdowns early.

[Mage]

Baldy one of the most underrated analysts in the game IMO.  I miss him on NFL Playbook

[BrianS]

Play design sure does remind me of another offense in 2017 . . .

[GoobyPls]

They used Mcadoo as a scapegoat for Eli’s ineptitude. They should of cut ties with Eli last year when they had the chance but that moron Gettleman thought he still had something. 

 

When the giants get a decent QB they will be a scary team
