The New York Giants Christopher Slayton Jersey Boys , and their fans, are riding high after beating division rival Washington Redskins 40-16. Moving on from that win, the Giants face an interesting matchup in the Tennessee Titans. In some ways, this is something of a “mirror match” (to borrow a term from fighting games in which the player has to fight the same character as they are playing, only with a different color palate) as the Titans run a similar defensive scheme.Their defensive coordinator, Dean Pees, has about as an attractive coaching pedigree as you could possibly ask for from a defensive coordinator. In the college ranks he twice coached under Nick Saban (as a position coach and defensive coordinator), and in the NFL he was a defensive line and later linebackers coach, then defensive coordinator for Bill Belichick, and was the defensive coordinator for the Baltimore Ravens. Pees calls a “multiple” blitzing defense in the same vein as the Giants’ James Bettcher. It is a defense with players and wrinkles for which the Giants will need to be ready, but it is also a defense with matchups the Giants can exploit.Stats that matterGiants’ offenseTitans’ defenseGet the passing game going earlyThe talk this week has been that the Giants’ offense now runs through Saquon Barkley, and the rookie has certainly stepped up recently. With Odell Beckham Jr. perhaps missing another game this Sunday, Barkley will again be the focal point. That being said, the Giants need to get their passing game going early. While the Titans have one of the league’s best pass defenses in terms of raw stats, ranking eighth in passing yards per game, Football Outsiders ranks them as one of the worst teams in the league at covering wide receivers. Tennessee ranks a poor 25th in the league against “number two” receivers, and 24th against “all other receivers”. However, against “number one” receivers — of which the Giants have one of the very best in the league — they rank dead last at 32nd. Meanwhile, the Titans rank 13th in the league in run defense, and fourth in the league in covering passes to running backs. Unfortunately, Beckham’s presence on the field is in serious question with him seeking a second opinion on his bruised quad. If Beckham doesn’t play, we can expect some combination of Sterling Shepard, Evan Engram, Saquon Barkley, and Corey Coleman to try and pick up the slack. As mentioned before, Tennessee is not great at covering secondary receivers, which bodes well for Shepard and Coleman (as well as Bennie Fowler and whoever else the Giants line up at receiver). The Titans are good at covering tight ends and running backs, but neither Engram nor Barkley are anything like the usual breed of player at those positions. Both players can line up and run routes from anywhere in the offensive formation, and in doing so present the kind of match-up problems which keep defensive coordinators up at night. Pat Shurmur just needs to make use of them.All season long the Giants have neglected to take advantage of favorable positional matchups. However, with the Giants potentially clinging to the hope of a spot in the post-season after an absolutely atrocious start to their regular season, they can’t afford to keep passing up favorable matchups when faced with quality opponents.Keep Eli Manning uprightThis subhead has been evergreen this year, and it’s also something the Giants haven’t done a great job of.The Giants are tied for third-worst in the NFL with Manning being sacked 43 times this season Youth Eli Manning Jerseys , and he has been hit 81 times through 14 games. Even with improvement along the offensive line, Manning was still pressured on nearly 30 percent of his passing attempts against the Washington Redskins. This week they face a defense which seemingly revels in sending pressure from unpredictable sources. The Titans’ top sack artist is DT Jurrell Casey with 7.0 on the season. Casey, rookie EDGE Harold Landry (2.5), and 2018 addition Kamalei Correa (2.5) are the only defensive linemen or EDGE rushers with more than two sacks. By contrast, they have four interior linemen or defensive backs who have at least 2.0 sacks (three of whom have 3.0 or more), and two more defensive backs with at least one sack. As you might expect from a defense coordinated by a coach with Dean Pees’ pedigree, the Titans love to mix and match alignments and coverages, and the Giants’ offensive line not only has to win its battles up front, but the linemen, tight ends, and running backs need to keep their heads on a swivel. There will be pressure coming from unexpected sources, as well as pressure apparently vanishing after the snap. Spotlighting Jayon BrownIf there is one player, other than Casey, worth spotlighting in this defense, it is second-year linebacker Jayon Brown. Drafted in the fifth round out of UCLA, Brown came in to the league as an unheralded “tweener” — an inside linebacker with the size of a safety. He showed some upside in his rookie year but has truly blossomed under Dean Pees. Already this season he has 76 tackles, 8 tackles for a loss, 3 passes defensed, 6.0 sacks, and 10 quarterback hits. As you would expect from a linebacker who is all of 6 feet, 220 pounds, he is fluid in coverage and a bit part of why the Titans are seventh against tight ends and fourth against running backs in the passing game. Brown might not be a game wrecker like Aaron Donald, Khalil Mack, or J.J. Watt, but he is an ascending player who offenses need to recognize and account for. If the Giants are able to diagnose whether he is in man or zone coverage (as well as the defense as a whole), they can use concepts designed to target the weaknesses of those defenses. If they choose to go after Brown and try to take one of the defense’s best players out of the game, making him the read player in RPOs (that is, the player who is forced into conflict between covering a pass or playing the run), could put more stress on the rest of the defense, as well as make sure Brown can’t be “right.” Here’s what happened on the first day of training camp" />Skip to main contentclockmenumore-arrownoyesBig Blue View homepageHorizontal - WhiteBig Blue Viewa New York Giants communityFollow Big Blue View online:Follow Big Blue View on TwitterFollow Big Blue View on FacebookLog in or sign upLog InSign UpSite searchSearchSearchBig Blue View main menuFanpostsFanshotsSectionsLibraryGiantsOddsAboutMastheadCommunity GuidelinesStubHubMoreAll 321 blogs on Horizontal - WhiteFanposts Fanshots Sections New York Giants NewsGiants Training Camp 2016Giants vs. Eagles 2015, Week 17Giants’ practice report, 7/25: Sterling Shepard injury Eli Manning Jerseys Stitched , Daniel Jones’ day, Lorenzo Carter, moreNew,79commentsHere’s what happened on the first day of training campEDTEAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. — Training camp is off and running with Day 1 of practice is in the books for the New York Giants. The biggest story of the day is that wide receiver Sterling Shepard has suffered a fractured thumb and will be “week to week,” per the team.We saw and heard from Daniel Jones. Kurt Warner was on hand to talk about Eli Manning. We heard from several players.Below, our summary of what happened as the Giants got their 2019 season underway.Daniel Jones’ dayThe rookie quarterback’s public day began with a press conference during which he deflected questions about competing with Eli Manning or when he might get to play. He said again and again that he was focused on improving. Jones, in fact, used the word “improve” eight times during his presser.“You know, I think individually my focus is just to improve. Use these next couple days to pick up where I left off, to pick up where we left off. You know, every day improve, and what that looks like down the road, I’m not sure. My focus is on improving today and tomorrow and taking those steps.”Jones then went out and showed during practice that he does, indeed, still have work to do. He went 6-of-14 during four separate 11-on-11 stretches, beginning his day with an 0-for-6. To be fair, one of those was a deep ball that was dropped by a wide open Bennie Fowler. Jones was never intercepted, but he did throw a couple of balls that were batted and volley-balled around before falling incomplete.Before practice, coach Pat Shurmur spoke about what he wanted from Jones during training camp.“We’re going to try to have him continue with what he’s learned. I think the rookie camp was a continuation of what he learned in the spring. Each day he’ll build on that knowledge. It’s full steam ahead with him,” Shurmur said.That didn’t take longThe Giants weren’t through their first 11-on-11 session with the first team offense and defense before a “We want Daniel” chant broke out in the stands.Manning likely didn’t hear it. His next throw, though, was an excellent sideline ball to Sterling Shepard.I did not total Manning’s completions for the day, but he was crisp throwing the ball and had a nice day — aside from an ugly screen pass intended for Saquon Barkley that was picked off by Lorenzo Carter.Carter had a nice dayWell, I should say he made two really nice plays. The pick on the screen to Barkley was a diving one where he got in between Manning and Barkley. Right before that, with the offense hurrying to the line of scrimmage, Carter — with backside contain — diagnosed a reverse to Golden Tate and ran the receiver down before he could turn the corner and get upfield.The Giants desperately need Carter to become a play-making force off the edge in his second NFL season. Thursday, those two plays offered hope that he might be able to do that.“All ball”The “All Ball” t-shirt Giants players have been given, modeled above by safety Michael Thomas, was not coach Pat Shurmur’s idea. The coach did approve it, but the idea came from Giants’ PR man Pat Hanlon.“I think it can mean different things to different people,” Shurmur said. “I talk all the time that it’s all about the ball. It’s also about ‘let’s keep the focus on playing football.’ Each player may have a little different interpretation of what that is. But it’s kind of nice when we all get a new t-shirt.”The brand is alive and well A certain former Giants wide receiver claimed to have been keeping the team’s brand alive. It certainly appeared to be alive and well on Thursday Youth Odell Beckham Jerseys , with a full and lively crowd in attendance for the first practice of training camp.Manning also had a response to the Odell Beckham Jr. “brand” comment:Quotable — Evan Engram, who missed five games with injuries in 2018More opportunitiesGiants wide receivers and tight ends know they will likely be asked to do more this season with Beckham gone.“That’s kind of an offense-wide mindset we have. There are going to be more opportunities for everybody. We’ve all been working our butts off this offseason, and the coaches have been doing a really good job putting together a game plan and giving the ball to our playmakers,” Engram said. “Definitely for myself, and I know for my teammates and for the other playmakers on our team, we understand it is a big opportunity for all of us.”Saquon out wideIt’s way too early to make too much fuss over a single play, but I have to point out one play I really liked from Thursday. The Giants motioned Saquon Barkley out of the backfield to the left, forcing the defense to adjust and winding up with Barkley 1-on-1 with Janoris Jenkins. That created a 1-on-1 matchup on the other side with Engram and Jabrill Peppers, and resulted in a quick completion to Engram.I saw it an an example of how the Giants can get mileage out of Barkley’s skillset even when he doesn’t get the ball.Lineup notesAs promised, left tackle Nate Solder and right tackle Mike Remmers were on the field. Both worked with the first team, though Brian Mihalik (left tackle) and Chad Wheeler (right tackle) got some first-team reps late in practice.It appeared that Jon Halapio took most of the first-team center reps, though Spencer Pulley got some.Defensively, Kareem Martin and Markus Golden split reps at one of the outside linebacker spots. Golden, who tore an ACL in 2017 and came back midway through last season, did not work during mandatory mini-camp.First-round picks DeAndre Baker and Dexter Lawrence worked with the first team defense. Sam Beal worked with the second group.Alex Tanney and Kyle Lauletta split third-team quarterback reps.Play of the day That goes to cornerback Antonio Hamilton. He stripped running back Rod Smith of the ball after Smith had cut back and was 1-on-1 with the corner. Hamilton swiped at the ball, stripped it, scooped and scored.Kurt Warner on what Manning will deal withKurt Warner was the man Manning replaced as Giants’ quarterback. He knows what’s coming for the 16-year veteran.“When you’re the veteran guy and you know there’s a guy behind you that eventually is going to play it was always one of those things where you had to fight not playing worried about making a mistake or getting tight and playing differently than you did before.”Warner knows the question that will always be in Manning’s mind is “how long is my leash?”“Go play. You’ve gotta play your game and if you don’t you’re not going to hold the job for very long anyway.”Full Warner storyRemaining Practice ScheduleFriday, July 26 — 2:45 p.m. (Closed)Saturday, July 27 — 2:45 p.m. (Public)Sunday, July 28 — 2:45 p.m. (Public)Tuesday, July 30 — 2:45 p.m. (Public)Wednesday, July 31 — 2:45 p.m. (Public)Thursday, August 1 — 2:45 p.m. (Closed)Friday, August 2 — 2:45 p.m. (Public)Saturday, August 3 — 2:45 p.m. (Closed)Monday, August 5 — 10:45 a.m. (Closed)Tuesday, August 6 — 10:45 a.m. (Public)Sunday, August 11 — 10:45 a.m. (Public)Monday, August 12 — 10:45 a.m. (Public)Tuesday, August 13 — 10:45 .m.
