The New York Giants struggled across the board against the Pittsburgh Steelers on Tuesday night, but it was expected. With only a shortened training camp to prepare and zero preseason games to refine their talent, the Giants were put in a tumultuous position from the start. However, some of their more reliable players didn’t show up to play, including Evan Engram and Saquon Barkley in specific facets.
Engram simply disappeared on the night, dropping multiple passes and failing to do anything in the run blocking game. Barkley, on the other hand, was a product of his offensive line, who simply couldn’t block for him and open up any holes to run through.
