Giants to fire Jason Garrett, OC

Freddie Kitchens better at least get the ball to the playmakers in space. If I am going to have to watch another 7 games it'd be nice to at least see Toney and Barkley with the ball. Force feed it to them for all I care. But last year when Garret was out with Covid... Kitchens didn't exactly impress anyone with his playcalling..

Good. He sucked. The offense was entirely broken.

Daniel Jones rookie stats with Pat Shurmur: 13 games, 24 passing touchdowns, 12 interceptions

Daniel Jones 2020-2021 with Jason Garrett: 24 games, 20 touchdowns, 17 interceptions

Hiring Garrett in 2020 to call plays as OC after he was forced to relinquish play calling duties in Dallas because of how bad he was at it was hopeful and dumb. Keeping Garrett this offseason solely because of continuity was malpractice.

I don't expect the Giants offense to get magically better, but there should be some small improvements. This is more a tryout now for Freddie Kitchens, who I assume will take the reins for the rest of the year. If, that's a big if, Judge is still around next season, Kitchens could be named permanent OC.

If I remember correctly, Kitchens only called plays last year in games that had Colt McCoy starting.

Yea I think it was just the Cleveland game? He didn't have much to work with. Whelp he has a whole slate of weapons at his disposal so let's see what he can conjure up.

Yup. It's worse because KennyG and Toney are both obviously good players that have made plays... when targeted.

4th and 1 last night, the Giants took Golladay and Toney off the field to bring in Collin Johnson and Colin Myarick. Don't know who they are? Neither do most Giants fans. It's like we were trying to make things more difficult for ourselves. Never made any sense.

If I was the Giants coach, my 3rd and 1/4th and 1 offense would be something out of 13 personnel with Toney, Shepperd, Golladay, Barkley and Rudolph on the field. Engram is terrible and those other two guys (Johnson/Mayrick) are... meh... at best. Have the 4 best playmakers you have + the sure handed TE. Run concepts like these:

Targeting Toney in the slot

Targeting Rudolph on the TE out with backup of Barkley

Or this one:

Read the EDGE/LB/C on the right side. Top 2 are the TE and the cut close slot (again Toney), and then if they aren't open, hitting the deep route to Golladay or the slant to Sheppard. 

 

But I'm just some guy on the message boards. Not some NFL coach.
