EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- Mention New York Giants offensive coordinator Jason Garrett's name and it almost always elicits some kind of reaction. For Giants fans and anyone watching their offense, it has been mostly negative the past 14 months.
Garrett's offense struggled last season, ranking No. 31 in yards and points, and it spilled into the early part of this season when it looked awfully similar schematically to the 2020 version.
It put Garrett, the former Dallas Cowboys head coach, in a precarious position. He seemed closer to being unemployed than emerging this offseason as candidate for a second chance as a head coach.
