Rich Eisen: New York Giants owners ‘love’ Brian Daboll
After calling the play-by-play of the New York Giants’ overtime loss to the Carolina Panthers in Munich, Germany on Sunday, NFL Network’s Rich Eisen has some interesting things to say on the ‘Rich Eisen Show’ about head coach Brian Daboll, quarterback Daniel Jones, and rookie wide receiver.
On Daboll and Jones …
“What Daboll’s calling, guys, people are open. They are …first drive Malik Nabers gets open on a third down and Jones with a clean pocket air mails him. The Flea Flicker now you could field and you got Tyrone Tracy Jr., who by the way, is a very talented kid. He’s good. Giants have some players who can catch it and run it and why are you calling for a Flea Flicker?
“Well, because it was going to work there were two guys on the route — they were both wide open and Jones held on to it held on to it and at the top of the screen I saw this live and if you watch the replay again if they show the replay of the All-22 you can see Daboll at the top of the screen kind of losing it.
“He’s scheming ‘em open, guys. They are open.”
Ownership’s feelings on Daboll …
“They love Daboll. The owners love him. There’s a lot to like about him. Certainly when you meet he’s just like a regular dude … Saban guy, Belicheck guy, the type of guy you want in New York.”
On Malik Nabers …
“You remember the red flags on Nabers coming out of the draft? I didn’t see a damn thing. He’s on it. He’s prepped. He’s ready to go.”
