New York Times  

By Charlotte Carroll, Brooks Kubena, Ben Standig and Saad Yousuf We’re four weeks through the NFL season, and things are as expected in the NFC East — or not. 📺: FOX pic.twitter.com/Vg7lXDfYqp — New York Giants September 22, 2024 Brooks Kubena : I’m most surprised by how poorly Jalen Hurts has protected the football. On “Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants,” we heard Daboll say he’d seen enough from Daniels to trade up for him. Watching how the offense has operated around Nabers to start this season, it’s frightening to think what it could look like without him.
