Help me understand the Giants' thinking here....

[StickierBuns]

I'll take 'anything to discuss other than yesterday's debacle' for $500, Alex.....what was Brian Daboll thinking with the Giants? He kept running Dart and running Dart.....and he was taking all these hits....and then he designed ANOTHER run and Dart got his bell rung and has a concussion. Why?? I mean, Dart is a real trooper, played tough, but why would you do this to the kid? Its insane. This was the 4th time he's been evaluated for a concussion already this season.

Perhaps Daboll is related to my high school coach. in 1978, I got thrown down on my head and lost my memory. I told a coach and he said that I would be fine.

I agree Sticky, it was QB abuse by Daboll...

QB abuse manifests itself with KOC too; by having JJM attempt 42 passes vs Ravens.

I don't understand how the media isn't roasting Daboll over a spit right now.

I was just posting in another thread about how I don’t really want to see McCarthy running a ton and the whole time I was thinking of Dart and Daniels. Big picture we need a thrower back there, not a runner. Love that he can run but for now that’s a weapon maybe best saved for another time.

This board is fond of bashing KO and we do need to run more, but imagine the rhetoric if KO was pounding the read option all game and JJM was getting lit up left and right. Dart looks like the real deal but now he’s hurt and they’re back to Russell Wilson. No thanks

When you lose, the fans are going to bash. Rightly or not. They're frustrated, disappointed, etc. and seeing clearly or having perspective is usually not part of that venting equation. 

The laser that JJ threw to Jefferson that would have been like a what, 35 yard TD and he dropped it? Horrible. It was coming in hot but so do other big armed QBs and their WRers catch it. It was a beautiful throw. Those throws keep you inspired as a fan to ride this thing through to the other side with JJM.

Yeah, Jefferson didn't inspire me yesterday.  Getting tripped up and then letting the guy run back the INT for 20 yards.  I get being cautious, the only defender in the area, but he showed no hustle.

The drop was huge.  Yeah, I am now on Jefferson today.

As far a Dabol, he is just trying to save his job at the expense of anyone.

At least someone got it: if I were the GM or owner, I'd be livid with how Daboll exposed Dart to this injury. Inexcusable.
