Giants standing behind struggling left tackle Ereck Flowers

[truebluefan]

It was all there again for a national audience to see. New York Giants left tackle Ereck Flowers continued to struggle with his pass protection, a problem that has plagued him since he came into the league in 2015.

Detroit Lions defensive end Ezekiel Ansah exposed the third-year tackle in Monday night’s 24-10 victory over the Giants. Ansah had three sacks of Eli Manning in the game after finishing with two sacks all of last season.

That hasn't changed the Giants’ sales pitch on Flowers, which began in April and has continued into the season. They are sticking by the left tackle they loudly declared to be in better shape and greatly improved, no matter the depth of his struggles.

^^^^says it all. Stubborn management makes this team look pathetic!

It is curious that the media is letting Jerry Reese off the hook, and putting the entire blame game
on Ben McAdoo. Just one question. Who has supplied this Giant offense line with these players?

The fact that no changes were made like the obvious moving Flowers to RT where he played college ball is on McAdoo. I don't understand how Reese thought one of the worst run blocking lines in the NFL would improve with age, the Giants have been unable to run the ball with any consistency taking the play action threat away from Eli. The vaunted $100 million dollar defense is more like a buck and change, also on Reese.
