What we learned from Giants' 45-33 win over Colts

We all know that general manager Joe Schoen wanted to move up in last year’s NFL draft to take a top quarterback and failed. That was bad luck for him, at the time. What ended up happening is that LSU wide receiver Malik Nabers fell into his lap at No. 6. The football gods were looking down on the Giants.

Nabers has been the best of the rookie wideouts this year and has given the Giants a ray of hope for the future. Even though he’s missed games due to injury and has played through pain much of the year, Nabers has displayed exceptional all-around playmaking ability all over the field, giving the Giants the explosive, versatile player they so desperately needed.

“That’s why we drafted him, where we drafted him,” said Daboll. “I’ve been asked about it since training camp and I think the response has been, ‘He’s a pretty good football player.’ He missed two games and he’s battling through, I’d say, a pretty good injury with his toe. So, I think between him and (Tyrone) Tracy, for those guys to do it in a season like this with a variety of quarterbacks, I think that’s pretty impressive. They are the right kind of guys.”
