Brian Daboll on Giants’ victory over Colts: ‘If you get good quarterback play, you have an opportunity in every game’

The New York Giants finally got good quarterback play, allowing Big Blue to end a franchise-worst 10-game losing skid, running away with a 45-33 win over the Indianapolis Colts.

“That’s how the offense needs to perform. That’s how the quarterback needs to perform,” Giants head coach Brian Daboll said, via the team’s official transcript. “So, when you do that and you win the turnover ratio, you have a chance to score points and win.”

Drew Lock generated a career-high four touchdown passes with 309 yards for a 155.3 passer rating. The QB also ran for a score. He became the third player in Giants history with four-plus pass TDs and one-plus rush TD in a game, joining Eli Manning and Charlie Conerly.

“If you get good quarterback play, you have an opportunity in every game,” said Daboll. “If you don’t turn the football over and you make critical plays at critical times. I think we were good on third down, I think we were good in the red zone. Drew made good decisions, we had a lot of alerts. That’s the start of it, and then you have to play good complimentary football.”
