The New York Giants were manhandled by the Atlanta Falcons, 34-7, on Sunday afternoon at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. It was their 10th straight loss, setting an undesirable franchise record for futility.
At this point, we’re running out of ways to describe this team and their weekly losses. There aren’t enough words in the dictionary to continue the synonym recycling necessary to cover the demise of this once proud organization.
If there is a saving grace, it’s that only two weeks remain in the 2024 regular season and the Giants now have sole position of the No. 1 overall pick in the 2025 NFL draft.
Here are the snap counts that contributed to the Giants’ Week 16 loss.
Offensive snaps: 59
Defensive snaps: 67
Special teams snaps: 24
In his first-ever NFL start, offensive lineman Jake Kubas took 100 percent of the offensive snaps at left guard. While he wasn’t perfect, he played admirably in place of veteran Aaron Stinnie, who missed the game with a concussion.
Meanwhile, running back Devin Singletary saw his role diminish once again. Two weeks removed from voicing displeasure over his usage, he was limited to just 13 snaps.
On defense, cornerback Adoree’ Jackson led both Deonte Banks and Cor’Dale Flott with a 78 percent snap share. Make of that what you will.
