Giants O Line Fails to Protect Daniel Jones L From A Dominant Dolphins Pass Rush, Ties 37-Year Old NFL Record

The Giants‘ offensive line did not perform well in preventing the Dolphins from sacking Daniel Jones. This tied a record set 37 years ago in the NFL. However, it was the 10 sacks he endured that raised eyebrows across the league, and the number has significantly increased.

At the moment, the Giants are struggling, having not scored a regular touchdown in nearly 2.5 games. Their quarterback, Daniel Jones, is facing a lot of pressure, and they have given up the most sacks in two games since 1986.

Incredible Giants stats point fingers at Jones

According to ESPN NFL Nation reporter Jordan Raanan, who covers the New York Giants, he reported via X: “Some ridiculous Giants stats: — The Giants haven’t scored an offensive touchdown in 145 minutes. That’s almost 2.5 games.” He added, On Sunday, QB Daniel Jones faced pressure on 44% of his dropbacks.

And, the 6′ 5″ QB has encountered pressure 81 times this season, ranking third among all players through five games since ESPN began tracking pressures in 2009. Furthermore, they permitted 18 sacks in the last two games, setting a record as the most sacks allowed by any team in a two-game span since the ’86 Eagles.

Worth noting, in the game against the Seahawks, Jones became the 10th quarterback in the 21st century to take double-digit sacks in a game. Before the week 5 games, in just four games, Jones had been sacked 22 times, which is an average of 5.5 times per game.

If this trend continues, 26 YO Jones might break the record with 93.5 sacks this season, significantly more than the previous record of 76. But there’s more to shock!

PFF’s findings leave Jones in disbelief

Shockingly, according to PFF, in 2023, Giants QB Daniel Jones’ stats were subpar: he threw 151 times (ranking 19th in the league) for 892 yards (27th), with only 2 touchdowns (31st), and he had the most interceptions with 6 (1st place).

The New York Giants selected quarterback Daniel Jones as the 6th overall pick in the NFL Draft. However, this season has been tough for him. In the last five weeks, QB Jones has been sacked 6, 10, 2, 3, and 7 times in games. He has also thrown interceptions 0, 2, 1, 1, and 2 times in those games. In 5 games, Jones has scored only 3 touchdowns in total.

In the end, as per recent reports, Coach Brian Daboll thinks Daniel Jones might play on Sunday against the Bills, despite his neck injury. This is good news for the Giants.
