New York Giants news for Friday
Good morning, New York Giants fans!
Asked that point-blank on Wednesday, Lawrence clarified what exactly has been making him frustrated.

It was interesting that Daboll after the loss to the Steelers revealed it was a Jones mental gaffe that led to the strip sack. There are plenty of postgame sessions when Daboll will not get into specifics as to who messed up a particular play. Jones said he had no problem with this because the two discussed it before meeting with the media.
Daboll, at 17-24-1, is just two games worse than the great Hall of Famer Bill Parcells and ahead of Ray Perkins, who is largely credited with helping to modernize the Giants under general manager George Young after decades of ineptitude.

NB: Dru Phillips. Phillips was a tenacious heat-seeking missile at Kentucky, but poor tackling severely limited his impact. This year, he’s been an excellent tackler, and his tone-setting play style is finally resulting in production. Phillips makes the majority of his impact within 10 yards of the line of scrimmage, erasing screens, checkdowns, and outside runs. At 187 pounds, he epitomizes “punching above your weight class” and has no issue escaping blocks.
