Nabers set the workforce’s rookie receptions document Sunday, passing two fairly good gamers in Odell Beckham Jr. and Saquon Barkley along with his 92nd catch of the season. “Kudos to me however … we didn’t win,” Nabers stated afterward. He’s doing harm in a tough scenario because the Giants and their offense stumble to the end line. Nabers is now at 97 catches for 969 yards with two video games remaining. So he’s virtually definitely going to high 100 catches and 1,000 yards, albeit whereas main the league in targets (155) and averaging simply 10 yards per catch.

The Giants are taking part in out the string with whoever is at QB, however they should do a number of fixing in all places on protection. Having a superb go rush means little when the whole lot else breaks down.

The Giants are the NFL’s lone two-win workforce and they don’t appear like a workforce that’s able to successful once more this season. The Giants aren’t tanking, they’re simply horrible. It’s going to seemingly make them the primary general draft decide and an essential selection at quarterback.

Diante Lee, The Ringer:
On one hand, I wish to empathize with backup quarterback Drew Lock after his turnovers this week. Once I play on All-Madden issue, I’m liable to make a few boneheaded throws and have some typically terrible pocket administration—even towards the worst defenses within the sport. New York’s offense has gotten so dry and uninspiring that even the throws concentrating on Malik Nabers don’t create a lot response from followers or worry in defenses anymore. With the Giants at present holding on to the primary decide within the upcoming draft, although, the group might be simply positive with that.

This has been a season to overlook for New York. The Giants misplaced their tenth consecutive sport on Sunday, dropping to the Falcons 34-7.
Luckily for the Giants, the Raiders defeated the Jaguars in Week 16, so New York has a terrific shot of touchdown the No. 1 general decide within the 2025 NFL Draft. PFN’s mannequin at present provides New York 41.3% odds of touchdown the highest choice.
It is going to be attention-grabbing to see if the Giants half methods with head coach Brian Daboll. Whereas he’s had some powerful outings, loads of franchises would love to rent him if New York fires him.
