Eli Manning and company will “pick up” at some point. Those were the words of New York Giants rookie wideout Sterling Shepard, Wednesday.
Big Blue’s offense had been its calling card in recent years. Even as they’d missed the playoffs and labored through consecutive 6-10 seasons in 2014 and 2015, the offense produced.
They figured to be even better this year, pairing Shepard and a returning Victor Cruz with Odell Beckham Jr. That has been anything but the case in 2016.
The Giants offense has struggled heavily through five weeks.
