Sputtering offense

Manning, who has started 206 consecutive games, would certainly prefer to finish the season, no matter how bad things get. “I want to be out there each and every week for my teammates,” he told WFAN’s Mike Francesa on Monday. “My mindset is to do whatever is best for the team and what will give us wins. I have a job to do and I’m going to do that to the best of my ability” The Giants rank 30th in the league in points scored and were 26th in the league last season. Of course, the offense does not solely rely on the quarterback, and McAdoo will be the first to tell you that. “It takes all 11 to play good on offense,” he said.

“I think that obviously short yardage and third down is big for us,” McAdoo said. “Details in pass protection and pass game is what it came down to yesterday. Thought first and second down we were running the ball at a good clip. We didn’t take care of business in the pass game.”
