Bowen's Aggressive Adjustments Power Giants' 34-17 Win Over Eagles

Players say Shane Bowen embraced their input as Brian Daboll pushed for a bolder approach that produced consistent pressure and a timely takeaway.

Overview

  • Against Philadelphia, Bowen mixed simulated pressures, stunts and selective blitzes to disrupt Jalen Hurts’ reads.
  • New York generated 13 pressures and three sacks, and cornerback Cor’Dale Flott intercepted Hurts late to help ice the game.
  • Brian Burns delivered two third-down sacks and now sits third in the NFL in sacks this season.
  • The Giants held Saquon Barkley to 58 yards on 12 carries as their run defense improved to 3.22 yards allowed per rush over the last two games, though their season ranking remains low.
  • Kayvon Thibodeaux credited open communication and Bowen’s willingness to evolve after Daboll told his coordinator to be aggressive.
