Jason Garrett Isn't Going To Be The Offensive Coordinator For The New York Giants Anymore Because They Fired Him Because Offensively The New York Giants Struggled Monday In 30-10 Loss At Tampa Bay

Jason Garrett was the New York Giants backup quarterback from 2000 to 2003!

For less then two seasons Jason Garrett was the offensive coordinator.

Jason Garrett isn’t going to be the offensive coordinator for the New York Giants anymore!

Why?

The New York Giants fired Jason Garrett because offensively the New York Giants struggled in their 30-10 loss at Tampa Bay Buccaneers

How?

The New York Giants only touchdown was scored by an offensive tackle. They posted season lows in points, yards, first downs and time of possession. Their longest play of the night was 28 yards and none of the other 53 plays gained more than 16.

The unsightly numbers included 215 yards (66 rushing), 15 first downs, ball possession for only 24:21 and, of course, those 10 points. The Giants converted just one of nine third-down opportunities. They took exactly five offensive snaps in the red zone – three on their first possession, which ended with Graham Gano's 37-yard field goal, and two after Adoree' Jackson intercepted Tom Brady and returned the ball to the five-yard line in the second quarter. That led to a two-yard touchdown reception by tackle Andrew Thomas. No, that is not a misprint.

The New York Giants advanced into Tampa Bay Buccaneers territory just once in their final seven possessions and not at all in the second half.

Starting quarterback for the New York Giants Daniel Jones completed 23 of 38 passes for 167 yards, a mere 4.4 yards per attempt. He threw two interceptions. The first went directly to defensive lineman Steve McLendon with no Giants in the area, the second was tipped by linebacker Devin White and grabbed by safety Mike Edwards.

Daniel Jones had this to say about his bad pass!

Just a bad decision, trying to get the ball out of my hands," Jones said of the first pick. "Got to be smarter in that situation."
