Big Blue View
Good morning, New York Giants fans!
During Sunday’s overtime thriller in Dallas, Wilson completed 30 of 41 pass attempts (73.2 percent) for 450 yards, three touchdowns, one interception and a quarterback rating of 123.0. The 450 passing yards are the second-most in his illustrious career and tied with Eli Manning for the fourth-highest total in franchise history.
“You’ve got to be tough asses,” said Kayvon Thibodeaux, who had one of the Giants’ two sacks. “You’ve got to be strong. I believe in our leaders and I believe in our support players.”
Abdul Carter, New York’s prized rookie edge-rusher, hasn’t made the impact expected when Big Blue took him No. 3 overall in the 2025 draft. Through his first two career games, Carter has recorded a meager four tackles, two QB hits and a half-sack. While Carter only saw the field for 38 defensive snaps (54 percent) in Week 1, he didn’t quite move the needle despite being out there for 67 defensive snaps (75 percent) against the Cowboys. He recorded just one tackle and one QB hit on those plays.
The Penn State product must improve if the Giants are going to have any chance of turning things around after a winless start. Unfortunately it won’t get any easier for Carter and co. with a desperate Chiefs squad heading to MetLife Stadium seeking their first win of the season in the impending Week 3 clash.
Through two weeks, by EPA per play, the Giants are the fourth-best offense in the NFL outside the red zone but the worst by a considerable margin inside the 20-yard line. I would say that has to regress toward the mean, but I was also saying that before the season — and well, it hasn’t yet.
