The New York Giants laid another egg on Sunday at MetLife Stadium, falling to the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 30-7, in a game that wasn’t even that close.
It felt like a tipping point for these Giants, who showed more fire in the postgame locker room than they had on the field.
The finger-pointing, which had largely been kept private until the Week 12 battle, is now playing out publicly. And it’s pretty clear in which direction the players are focusing their ire.
Now facing a quick turnaround and a nationally televised Thanksgiving Day game, things can only get worse for the Giants from here.
Here are the snap counts that contributed to the Giants’ Week 12 loss.
Offensive snaps: 59
Defensive snaps: 65
Special teams snaps: 20
Rookie safety Tyler Nubin continues to log a massive workload, once again taking 100 percent of the defensive snaps. This week, he was the only defender to handle the full bulk.
In his return from wrist surgery, edge rusher Kayvon Thibodeaux seemingly avoided a pitch count, handling 41 defensive snaps.
Offensively, rookie running back Tyrone Tracy Jr. was limited to just 24 snaps after briefly being benched due to another fumble.
