The New York Giants defeated the New England Patriots, 10-7, on Sunday to enter their bye week on a two-game winning streak. On The Chris & Nick Show preview of the matchup, Chris Pflum and I discussed how the Giants would attempt to attack the Patriots’ defense with pre-snap motion, jet-sweeps, and other methods to expand the defense and create traffic. Second-year wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson was the catalyst for this approach.
Brian Daboll and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka frequently moved Robinson in various ways to keep the offense moving. Tommy DeVito had answers to the quick defensive adjustments or lack thereof.
