Giants Keep Coaching Staff Intact After Fourth-Quarter Collapse

The coach keeps defensive coordinator Shane Bowen despite criticism over a late drop-eight call.

Overview

  • Brian Daboll said Monday he is not considering staff changes after the 33-32 loss in Denver, calling the defeat a collective failure that starts with him.
  • New York allowed 33 fourth-quarter points after leading 19-0 and later 26-8, becoming the first team in 1,603 games to blow an 18-plus point lead with under six minutes left, per Elias Sports Bureau.
  • Defensive captain Brian Burns was caught venting about the decision to rush three and drop eight on the Broncos’ final drive, while Dexter Lawrence deferred scheme questions to coaches.
  • Rookie Jaxson Dart threw for 283 yards and three touchdowns but had a costly late interception, and kicker Jude McAtamney missed two extra points that affected the margin.
  • After Paulson Adebo exited with a knee issue, Deonte Banks was targeted on key late completions that set up Wil Lutz’s winning field goal, though Daboll publicly backed his players.
