The Giants can’t just plug Jaxson Dart into the same scheme that Russell Wilson operated and expect better results.
With Tuesday’s decision to change quarterbacks, head coach Brian Daboll and offensive coordinator Mike Kafka needed to go to work reconfiguring the playbook to de-emphasize Wilson’s strength (deep throws) and highlight more of Dart’s strengths.
Not that anyone is complaining about making changes to one of the most boring offenses in the NFL.
“It has to get more creative,” ESPN NFL analyst Dan Orlovsky told The Post. “Can you utilize Jaxson’s athleticism within that creativity? Does that help some of the run and RPO game? They have to get Malik Nabers doing more than go-routes and get him on some crossing routes, get him more touches in the screen game, and going horizontally more than just vertically. They don’t throw the ball to the middle of the field with Russ.”
