The New York Giants have been embarrassed by the Philadelphia Eagles, 28-3, at residence on Sunday afternoon however what could have been essentially the most embarrassing second was when cornerback Deonte Banks backed off on tackling Eagles quarterback Jalen Hurts.
Hurts took off out of the pocket on the primary play of the fourth quarter and zipped up the fitting sideline. Banks was bearing down on Hurts however appeared to deliberately whiff as Hurts went on to realize extra yards earlier than going out of bounds.
Defensive backs coach Jerome Henderson, who publicly referred to as out Banks for an absence of hustle earlier this season, screamed on the younger cornerback from the sideline.
Two different occasions on the identical drive, Banks appeared to shrink back from partaking on a play.
Head coach Brian Daboll was questioned about Banks’ effort after the sport however had little to supply.
“We’ll check out all that stuff and no matter we have to deal with, we’ll deal with. However, the fellows are placing effort into it every week. We’re simply, sadly, not getting the outcomes and it’s a outcomes enterprise,” he instructed reporters.
When it was steered that Banks’ actions wanted to be addressed in the meanwhile on the sidelines.
“I’m not going to get into the sideline or teaching a part of it. However, none of it was ok at this time,” Daboll mentioned. “I’ll go away it at that.”
Dropping has begun to seep into the psyche of this staff. There could also be little or no Daboll can do at this level to show issues round. However that received’t forestall him from attempting.
“Nobody was glad concerning the outcome,” mentioned Daboll. “I believe we have now a powerful group. It’s good to have a powerful group on this league. There’s loads of ups and downs. Sadly, we’ve had extra downs. However, our guys will come again. We’ll regroup and we’ll do the whole lot we presumably can do, like we do every week, to be at our greatest on Monday evening.”
The Giants are actually 2-5 on the season. In the event that they lose to the Steelers subsequent Monday evening in Pittsburgh and drop to 2-6, it is going to be the seventh time prior to now eight years that they’ll start the season with two or fewer wins on the midway mark.
Having gamers give up in performs actually doesn’t assist — not in outcomes or in optics. Maybe some self-discipline is so as.
