An inside look at Sunday’s Giants-Vikings NFL Week 1 matchup at MetLife Stadium:
The plan could be to have Banks travel all over the field with Jefferson, but that could be disruptive to the entire coverage.
Jackson has had success in this matchup in the playoff game after the 2022 season, but he was re-signed last week and is not up to a full-time assignment such as this just yet.Malik Nabers has called for chants of “Leeeeek!” when he does something to excite the crowd, and there will be no sweeter sound for the Giants if that is heard reverberating around the stadium.
“We have a lot of veteran guys that played a lot of ball in this league, so it’s not hard,” left tackle Andrew Thomas said. “We’re on the same page. We don’t know exactly what they’re going to do, but we try to read our keys and follow our rules. That’s the only way to pick up blitz-zero and those different pressures.
He hit 92 percent of his attempts his first three seasons with the team, but slumped to 11 of 17 in 2023 before he needed surgery on his left knee — his plant leg.It was hard to tell in training camp if he is all the way back.“I’ve seen the Graham Gano that wins football games in this league,” special teams coordinator Michael Ghobrial said. “He is a proven kicker in this league and I’m fully confident in his ability to go make kicks at any distance.
Look for the Giants to try to exploit the middle of the field with quick-hitters to Wan’Dale Robinson and rookie Tyrone Tracy Jr., and to give Devin Singletary — the Saquon Barkley replacement — a full load in the ground game.With optimism in short supply, it’s on Giants to prove doubters wrong
