Who helped themselves and who didn't in the Giants preseason finale against the Jets on Saturday night?
The New York Giants 10-6 loss to the New York Jets in their preseason finale was one of the ugliest professional football games around.
Whitley drew a big holding call on the edge, while each one of his QB hits was a heavy one. He plays on his feet, and always seems to be around the ball. Another plus in Whitley’s cap is that he plays on every special team and legitimately contributes.
Neal’s footwork was way off on several snaps. He also took a couple of poor angles that opened up too much space around his edge. After his awful failures, he rebounded with some better pass block efforts and seemed to be calming down when he was bent backwards in a scrum and had to leave the game with yet another ankle injury.
Cloyd showed plenty of promise as the type of run-and-hit ILB that any team could use. Cloyd was not only filling holes with relish throughout the game – these were his flash plays – but he also played with a level of discipline and self-containment that surprised after last week’s wild-eyed, late-arriving showing.
Once he stepped in for John Michael Schmitz, Schlottmann completely whiffed on at least three separate snaps, leading to one sack, one pressure that led to another sack, and one big loss in the backfield on a running play that was otherwise well-blocked. Interestingly, Schlottmann stepped in at left guard late in the game due to injuries and acquitted himself adequately enough, showing some versatility. He's certainly smart and reliable assignment-wise; but the execution is a problem.Jakob Johnson hasn’t been with the Giants long but he saw early snaps against the Houston Texans, in what was his first game with the Giants and then played significant snaps , most of them at tight end, on Saturday night against the Jets.
