The New York Giants are currently 3-1-1 after overcoming a season-ending injury to quarterback Jaxson Dart. Jameis Winston, who replaced Dart in Week 3, has led the team to a record of 2-0-1. However, the offense has struggled to establish effectiveness, particularly in the running game, averaging just 3.49 yards per carry over the last three games. As a result, the Giants are under pressure to adapt their offensive strategy, shifting from a power running focus to a more balanced approach that emphasizes passing plays, especially on neutral downs. The ongoing challenges have prompted discussions within the organization on how to improve offensive predictability and performance moving forward.

- •Offense struggles with ineffective running game.
- •Team's running backs average 3.49 yards per carry in recent games.
