The New York Giants head into their bye week at 4-3, a respectable mark for a team that has not had a winning record since 2011. However, despite the winning record through seven games, there are plenty of issues that first-year head coach Ben McAdoo has to address if his team is to stand a chance in a suddenly competitive division.
Perhaps the most prevailing issue facing the Giants is their lack of balance on offense. In the lead up to the regular season, New York’s offense was receiving plaudits as a potential juggernaut, and for good reason: back-to-back career years from Eli Manning and a legitimate three-headed monster at wide receiver led many to believe that McAdoo’s team would march out one of the finest units in the NFC.
