Who will the Giants miss more Monday Night?

[MightyGiants]

With perhaps the Giants two best offensive players being out Monday night, who will be missed more?

[DaveBrown74]

Probably Barkley, because this game is going to be all about scoring (for both teams), so to be missing a potent playmaker like him clearly hurts.

Thomas is obviously a big loss, but Seattle's pass rush is minimal, and we have seen Ezeudu more than hold his own against a subpar D in Arizona.

In short, for this game specifically, I think the dropoff from Barkley to Breida means more than the dropoff from Thomas to Ezeudu.

This is a great way of looking at it regarding the drop off from the starter to the back up being greater for the RB than it is at Left Tackle.

For this game it's Barkley. Based on last game, we have to assume Daboll and Kafka won't run without Barkley. If Barkley plays it will somewhat mitigate the pass rush. If it were Dallas or Philly then I would say Thomas. I think Josh can hold up. Good gosh, it's Josh!

Jacobs and Bradshaw.

I'll miss our above average, physical, clutch, running back by committee.

Especially in a game like this.

I said 'Other'

They're going to miss having an offensive play caller because Dab/Ka is MIA.

BARKLEY

Our back up RBs are capable of running effectively if the O line does its job. Same with DJ.
It's all on the line.

I voted Barkley

Thomas is a better player and bigger loss, but to me EZ has shown some level of competency whereas Breida is just not very good

That doesn't answer the question but can see how it always has to be about the line to deflect away.

What makes you say breida isnt very good? as of late he looks to have better hands than barkley, and while hes not a game changer, he looks steady. im ok with saying barkley is better. way better. but i dont think that means breida is bad.

I don't think he is a good runner of the football. He is not a threat to anyone. He just JAG as Parcells used to say.

It's the obvious truth but some with Jones derangement syndrome have blurry glasses that do not allow them to see the obvious.

The truth is some people don't watch a lot of NFL games that don't involve the Giants to see that offensive line line is down throughout the league and that even teams with bad offensive lines still put up good passing production because they have elite QB's who don't need everything to be perfect around them to succeed.

Do you disagree with all the metrics that say the Giant's line is at or near the bottom of the league?
