I actually had that idea, on Monday, after getting burnt on 3rd and 16 on Sunday. So, I say anything around 3rd and 7 or longer should require all or most of the LB's being pulled from the field and substituted with DB's.

Honestly I would rather see Davis on the field making mistakes but learning and getting better in the process than Bostic wandering around looking lost which has no upside or prospect of improvement. Bostic is what he is

That's plausible.

Re: Week 2 - the Rebound

If you're in the crowd that says the Heinicke sample size is too small to think his very strong play is indicative of his future, then you have to be in the crowd that says the Daniel Jones record against us (4-0) is too small a sample to think that's necessarily for real.

Heinicke is going to make mistakes, and we're going to eat Daniel Jones alive tonight.

When is the last time we scored 35 or 40? Did we at all last yr? Must be nice to have a good offense

I get the frustration and feel it too, but nobody should be surprised that the construct for this season is dominant defense with a just-good-enough offense.

The frustration is that the "dominant defense" failed against a team that was 7-9 and albeit they are a strong team, they are by no means the strongest we will face.

Re: Week 2 - the Rebound

I actually think that in the end, the Chargers will be right there in the mix with the Chiefs, Bills, Browns, & Ravens for the AFC Championship. That week 1 loss won't look so bad then.

Re: Week 2 - the Rebound

We rebounded all right. Into a top 5 pick. Win or lose it is apparent that we are a bad team. So are the Giants.
