EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J.-- It failed to take wish for New York Giants fans to hit their boiling point-- pair of plays into the season opener, to be exact.That is when the booing began. It took place intermittently for four fourths during the course of a 28-6 drubbing at MetLife Coliseum to Sam Darnold and the Minnesota Vikings on Sunday afternoon.The Giants were actually booed off the area at halftime, when quarterback Daniel Jones threw a successfully pass and eventually tossed a set of interceptions, especially the one that was come back 10 backyards for a touchdown.Eventually all that might be heard in the final minutes of the blowout was the Vikings enthusiasts' "Skol" chant echoing throughout the stadium.It's only Week 1 in The Big Apple. The booing really did not agree with everyone.Editor's Picks2 Associated" I don't respect it in all honesty," defensive captain Dexter Lawrence mentioned. "I receive it. They desire to observe their team gain. It is actually a tough spot. It just is what it is actually." The trouble is that the Giants' struggles look an expansion of last time and also what the fans have actually sustained for a lot of recent 12 years. They've possessed merely pair of winning seasons during that time.At the instant, Jones seems to be to be the concentration of the enthusiasts' unhappiness. He's in his 6th period as the Giants' starter as well as has come to be the icon of their failures.Nothing that took place on Sunday against the Vikings defense will modify that.The $160 million quarterback was the impetus for much of the boos. It began when operating back Devin Singletary spotted a come on the standard on the second play of the activity and also slid for a 6-yard loss. Facing third-and-14 coming from their very own 26-yard line on their opening travel, the Giants picked up a problem of game.That is when the boos started to storm down on them. It was a harbinger of traits ahead. The Giants stopped working to get to the end region versus the Vikings." It's our work to provide something to support about and also to participate in well to perform. As well as our experts take that severe," Jones claimed. "They expect our company to play properly. Our company anticipate to participate in effectively. We must do that." This all unfolded on a mid-day when the Giants celebrated their 100th time along with a lot of their enduring living greats in the structure, including Lawrence Taylor, Eli Manning and Phil Simms. They were honored for their achievement throughout a halftime ceremony.Daniel Jones was 22-of-42 masquerading 186 backyards without any touchdowns as well as 2 interceptions in the Giants' 28-6 loss to the Vikings. His self-evaluation for Week 1 resembled that of his scalp coach: "Certainly not good enough." Mitchell Leff/Getty ImagesIt was among minority causes the followers must cheer.Before a few of the legends even returned to their suite at MetLife Arena, edge rush Kayvon Thibodeaux devoted a costly facemask fine and also the Vikings steered 70 yards in lower than three minutes for a score. It produced it 21-3. The Giants never ever installed a comeback.These type of digestive tract strikes have ended up being all also typical for Giants enthusiasts, especially in Full week 1. The Giants are actually 1-7 in their past 8 period openers. Just the Indianapolis Colts (0-7-1) have actually been much worse. The big apple has been outscored 68-6 in their previous pair of season openers alone." Our team can do whatever better, yet everything beginnings along with me," train Brian Daboll said.Daboll got in touch with plays Sunday for the very first time considering that coming to be the Giants' crown instructor in 2022. The outcomes were just somewhat improved coming from when they were actually shut out in a 40-0 loss to the Dallas Cowboys in prime time in in 2015's time opener.That hardly gave any sort of relief to this group." Our team are actually visiting see everything. [Looking at a quarterback improvement] that's not in my thoughts.".Giants train Brian Daboll." Our experts shed through a great deal and failed to score [a goal]," Daboll mentioned. "So it wasn't adequate." A change at quarterback would likely appease a number of the dissatisfied fans. It still doesn't seem likely after Jones took every first-team breeze this summer season and also finished this activity regardless of the askew score.Jones went 22-of-42 masquerading 186 gardens with no touchdowns and also 2 interceptions. He was actually sacked 5 times. His self-evaluation resembled Daboll's." Certainly unworthy," Jones claimed. "Didn't enter completion area, racked up 6 factors. Really did not generate much rhythm and circulation for ourselves." I have actually come to be a lot better, absolutely got to play far better, give ourselves even more opportunities to make plays as well as execute extra constantly." It doesn't show up the Giants are very ready to flirt at quarterback. Drew Padlock was the data backup on Sunday. Tommy DeVito, last year's out-of-nowhere sensation, was actually the urgent third-string quarterback." Our experts're heading to check out every little thing," Daboll stated." [Thinking about a quarterback modification] that's certainly not in my thoughts.".
