Giants' offense stifled by lack of creativity in win over Bears | Film review

EAST RUTHERFORD — The Giants fell into their old, predictable habits in Sunday's 22-16 win over the Bears. After showing some creativity in two wins after their bye week, the Giants went back to basics in an offensive struggle against the lowly Bears.

The Giants were in their standard 11 personnel grouping (one running back, one tight end, three wide receivers) on 59 of their 62 snaps (not including kneel downs). The only exceptions were two snaps with offensive lineman Will Beatty lined up as a jumbo tight end (in what was still technically 11 personnel) and one snap with two tight ends.
