Giants Drop to 0-3 as 'We Want Dart' Chants Intensify Quarterback Questions

Brian Daboll refused to name a Week 4 starter after a 22-9 home loss, saying he would be booing too as rookie Jaxson Dart was limited to three snaps.

Overview

  • Russell Wilson finished 18-of-32 for 160 yards with two interceptions against the Chiefs, going 0-for-6 with two picks on deep throws, per Next Gen Stats.
  • MetLife Stadium repeatedly booed the offense and chanted for Jaxson Dart, with cheers for his brief cameos turning to boos when Wilson returned.
  • Daboll said the offense "wasn't good enough," voiced confidence in Dart’s development, and declined to answer postgame whether Wilson will be benched.
  • Dart has yet to attempt an NFL pass and was used for three special-package snaps, a continuation of the team’s cautious deployment despite a strong preseason.
  • The 0-3 start increases pressure on Daboll and the quarterback plan, with the unbeaten Chargers visiting next before a Week 5 trip to the Saints.
