Film study: What happened to the right side of the Giants’ OL vs. Dallas?

Saying the New York Giants struggled to protect Daniel Jones vs. the Dallas Cowboys is a vast understatement. Jones was sacked seven times and faced pressure on more than 60% of his dropbacks. The Cowboys had 39 individual pressures, which was more than the Giants’ defense recorded in both Dallas’ matchups last season.

According to Pro Football Focus, the right side of the Giants’ line surrendered 17 pressures. Of all qualifying offensive linemen in Week 1, Mark Glowinski had the lowest Pro Football Focus grade, and tackle Evan Neal had the eighth-lowest. We don’t need PFF to tell us how poor the right side of the Giants offensive line was, though; it was more than apparent throughout the game.
