The final offensive play served as the final knockout punch in the Giants loss to the Cowboys on Monday night, writes art_stapleton
Saquon Barkley admitted that, when he realized his best friend was the one down on the MetLife Stadium turf in immense pain, he needed a moment before even approaching Shepard, dropping to a knee and saying a prayer for a teammate who had clearly sustained a serious injury.: they just didn't do enough to pick Jones up.
This time, Barkley's 36-yard touchdown run gave them life, and Jones refused to let their upset bid die, not without a fight."Daniel was fighting his ass off," Sills quipped."He's a true competitor, he's the biggest competitor we have on this team. He plays hard. He plays tough. And he does whatever he needs to do to give us a chance to succeed."
You can believe Jones isn't the best option at quarterback for the Giants next season and still give him credit for how he's playing. That may be difficult to do for those who are already convinced Jones does not have what it takes to be the guy, and that may ultimately be proven true. Neal was punished by veteran DeMarcus Lawrence, who picked apart every aspect of his game. The Giants' No. 7 overall pick was asked if he has ever had a game that bad.The final sequence of events on the Giants' last offensive play will be what lingers for Barkley, Sills and others.
While the Giants found themselves in disbelief with how Diggs ended up with the football, they were suddenly forced to make sense of what happened to Shepard on the other side of the field. The Bears will come to MetLife next Sunday, and the Giants have a chance to finish off their best month in a while.
