“#Giants progress on the line in key division battle vs. Eagles<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n It was one of those comments that actually sounded a bit funny.<\/p>\n

It came in response to a question about the progress made along the Giants\u2019 offensive line. But it had broader implications that app<\/a>ly to the entire team.<\/p>\n

Why so much better now than a month or two ago?<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s nice when everyone knows what they\u2019re doing,\u2019\u2019 veteran guard Kevin Zeitler said. \u201cIt speeds up communication, it speeds up the process and helps the whole team in general<\/a>.\u2019\u2019<\/p>\n

Yes, indeed, it is always beneficial when players know what they are doing.<\/p>\n

This is the course first-year head coach Joe Judge set for the Giants. He fully realized all the changes made on offense, defense and special teams, new personnel, an injection of youth, a disjointed and remote spring as COVID-19 took hold, no on-field work, no preseason game<\/a>s, a slow ramp-up to a semblance of normalcy in training camp would all conspire against early success. Judge never used any of this as an excuse, but he did acknowledge there would be a feeling-out process that was unavoidable and hoped more than a sprinkling of winning could come during the growing pains.<\/p>\n

As it turned out, there was too much pain amid the growing, as the Giants lost their first five games and seven of their first eight, the majority of the losses excruciatingly close and agonizingly late. Only a hater will deny the Giants are making strides, but the only thing Judge has to show as proof of results are two victories over Washington.<\/p>\n

\u201cI feel we\u2019re getting closer and closer to what we want to be as a team,\u2019\u2019 Judge said. \u201cI think we\u2019re improving every week and I see that, the players see that when we turn on the tape. When we turn it on, we want our identity to be something that jumps off the tape at us when you watch it. There doesn\u2019t need to be volume on the tape for a reason. That\u2019s because all you have to know is what you see.<\/p>\n
