Brian Daboll’s meal ticket to keeping his job as New York Giants head coach is Jaxson Dart. Everybody, Daboll included, knows that.
If Daboll gets an opportunity, like Giants ownership gave him last season, to make a pitch as to why he should be retained as head coach despite yet another losing season, we know how it will go.
Daboll was the guy who pushed for the Giants to draft Dart. There have, in fact, been some reports that Daboll wanted GM Joe Schoen to use the No. 3 overall pick on the quarterback. Daboll will argue that you can’t...

Henry Mildener asks: Do you think it may be a good idea to let Daboll go at season’s end and hire Kafka. This would retain some continuity for Dart. And let Kafta hire his own staff.

Steve G. asks: There has been a lot of talk about firing Brian Daboll. Yet, the selection of Jaxson Dart and his development have been remarkable, particularly given the slew of injuries around him. Regarding the huge upgrade in QB performance, how would you apportion the credit that goes to Daboll vs. Kafka vs. Shea Tierney?
*If Daboll were to be fired, I...

Placekicker Graham Gano, who has a herniated disc in his neck, did not practice for a third straight day on Friday. That means Younghoe Koo, who is on the practice squad, is likely to be the placekicker on Sunday for the New York Giants.
This will mark the second time this season and the fourth time in three seasons that an injury has sidelined the 38-year-old Gano. Gano missed the final nine games of 2023 with a knee injury. He missed seven games in 2024 with a groin injury. This year, he already spent four games on injured reserve with...

There is an impression among many New York Giants fans that because he has only a half-sack through his first nine games, that No. 3 overall pick Abdul Carter has been a disappointment.
So, if that is true how is that NFL analyst Bill Barnwell of ESPN still believes Carter will win NFL Defensive Rookie of the Year honors?
The answer is that if you look beyond the sack total the numbers tell a far different story about how impactful Carter has been.
Barnwell says:
The sacks will come. Carter has only a half-sack to his name through eight...

The New York Giants head to Soldier Field in Illinois on Sunday to face the Chicago Bears. Let’s learn about this version of the Bears from Bill Zimmerman of SB Nation’s Windy City Gridiron in this week’s ‘5 questions’ segment.
*Bill: The Bears certainly have some issues when you watch them. Their special teams aren’t very good. Their defense has not played well, except for one stretch of the...

The New York Giants are back on the practice field as they prepare for Sunday’s matchup with the Chicago Bears, looking to clean up penalties, improve tackling, and find consistency on both sides of the ball after three straight losses.
On Thursday, media heard from offensive coordinator Mike Kafka, defensive coordinator Shane Bowen, and special teams coordinator Michael Ghobrial, who each discussed areas of emphasis heading into Week 10.
Quarterback Jaxson Dart’s yards per passing attempt (5.8) against the San Francisco 49ers was his lowest since a 5.1 average...

The New York Giants didn’t make a trade prior to the 2025 trade deadline back on Tuesday. They neither acquired a receiver to help fill out a perilously thin wide receiver depth chart, nor were they able to trade any players to add draft picks for the future.
That might not have been for lack of trying, however. We heard reports that the Giants were making calls with regards to the big name receivers like Jaylin Waddle, however the asking price was too high for the Giants’ liking. There were also reports that the Giants were fielding calls regarding players...

The New York Giants on Thursday hosted rookie placekicker Ben Sauls for a tryout, likely as insurance with a new injury to 38-year-old Graham Gano clouding their kicking situation.
Sauls, who kicked collegiately at Pitt, was signed after the 2025 NFL Draft by the Pittsburgh Steelers. He was cut at the end of the preseason and signed to the Atlanta Falcons practice squad in September. Sauls was cut by Atlanta earlier this week.
If Gano, who said Thursday that he has a herniated disc in his neck, cannot kick on Sunday against the Chicago Bears former Falcons kicker Younghoe Koo...

Graham Gano, who already missed four games and most of a fifth this season with a groin injury, appears on the verge of being unavailable to be the placekicker for the New York Giants on Sunday against the Chicago Bears.
Gano on Thursday missed a second consecutive day of practice with a neck injury. Per Dan Duggan of The Athletic, Gano has a herniated disc in his neck.
If Gano cannot kick on Sunday, the Giants would turn to veteran Younghoe Koo, who has spent most of the season on the team’s practice squad.
Head coach Brian Daboll said Gano...
