It was Pat Shurmur's turn to face a blitz on Monday.
After the Giants struggled to pick up blitzes and he had six sacks of quarterback Eli Manning and a 20-13 loss to the Cowboys, the freshman head coach was caught on the wrong score during a 0-2 start. The Giants have two touchdowns on 22 offensive possessions.
"To be able to drive the ball or get big chunks," said Shurmur, "that's what you want to do on each disc.We just need to do it sooner.We have to really cross the end zone . " "
As leftist striker Nate Solder said, "They bombed, they stomped, they rushed to four. They did a number of things and we did not get anything back.

Waterfalls and blitzes
Shurmur has shot down a perception of television analyst Sunday Night Football Cris Collinsworth, NFL Network Analyst Brian Baldinger and WFAN radio host Bart Scott – all long-time players in the NFL – and blitzes.
Stunts occur when two or more defensive line players swap roles and alternate paths to quarterback, in contrast to their position. Scott suggested that the Giants should slide the protection to the right, leaving Solder on an island to protect the hidden side of Manning.
"You have to take it," said Shurmur. "On the (escaped and escaped) escaped, it was a complete slide, we just did not get in. It was communicated.everyone who would have made these comments should ask me."
