To be fair to Russell, that Giants offense is horrible. Take out Russell's scrambles and the Giants RB's managed just 30 yards rushing vs. the Commanders last week. Not many quarterbacks are going to be able to carry a team like that.

Any guesses on how long Russ keeps his starting job? It would be highly inadvisable to put their first-round rookie out there behind that OL and with such a pathetic running game and risk giving him David Carr syndrome. But Daboll is likely on the hot seat, so there could be pressure to win now or else. He might view putting in Dark as a gamble he has to take.

The Giants will be in Dallas facing the Cowpukes, who looked surprisingly good in their opener on the road against the defending SB champ Eagles. Russ and the Giants have their work cut out for them.

I instinctively jumped off my couch and screamed YES at his TD. I do hate the Cowboys but it was mainly because it brought me back to watching Russ so many times for us.
You and me both

But sadly, live by the moonball die by the moonball

They should just take deep shots once they get to the 40 yard line of the opponent's side. Russ cannot do anything close to the red zone if he doesn't have a run game. His best chance is to score on 40+ yard long bombs.

What a beautiful Russell Wilson rainbow..

We should just be grateful we got to see one more before he is benched

He thought he was back
We should have never even seen that. Horrible deep prevent to get the Cowboys in FG range in regualation.

2nd and a million and four tacklers whiff on a draw to allow a 3rd down conversion in OT.

Not sure what the Giants were doing in defense at regulation. That prevent was awful.

Also, why did they keep putting Dart in the game. Probably mess with Wilson head at the end, trying to force something which he didn't do majority of the game.

Still a very awful pass by Wilson. He looks good though, if they bench him I can still see teams trying to pick him up by the trade deadline if there is an injury to their starter.
