Authentic Evan Engram Jersey , Eagles, Washington As the first quarter of the season wraps up this weekend, the NFC East remains a tightly-packed division. The Philadelphia Eagles and Washington are both 2-1, while the New York Giants and Dallas Cowboys are 1-2. There’s no clear class of the division, which means even the smallest things can have a great impact on how the season plays out. So, here’s what’s happening this week with the Giants’ most intimate rivals.Philadelphia EaglesThe Eagles have been awaiting official word on the knee injury suffered by safety Rodney McLeod in Sunday’s win over the Indianapolis Colts. Bleeding Green Nation’s Brandon Lee Gowton reported late on Wednesday that there was no update pending further testing. On Thursday, Gowton reports that it appears McLeod’s injury is a torn MCL, which will likely end his season. In other Eagles injury news, receiver Alshon Jeffery was cleared for contact this week, though it does not guarantee that he plays on Sunday against the Tennessee Titans. Running backs Jay Ajayi and Darren Sproles were still both sidelined.WashingtonHogs Haven is focusing on Washington’s offense this week. Jamual Forrest provides an offensive progress report through the team’s first three games, while Kennedy Paynter breaks down how that side of the ball performed in Week 3 against the Green Bay Packers.Mark Tyler also drills down Washington’s Week 3 performance, identifying the studs and duds of the game. Tight end Jordan Reed and his improved blocking stood out in a good way, while receiver Josh Doctson and his zero catches was among the players who struggled.Dallas CowboysThere are a number of problems in Dallas this season, and one is that the offense cannot consistently move the ball down the field and into the end zone. Blogging the Boys’ RJ Ochoa has found a disturbing trend that further illustrates how ineffective the offense has been this year: The Cowboys haven’t scored a second- or third-quarter touchdown all season.Michael Sisemore takes things a step further and argues that the problem isn’t just Dak Prescott, or any one thing that’s hurting the Cowboys, but rather the entire offense. From the line’s inability to protect, to no clear plan at wide receiver, the quarterback and thus the team are being set up for failure. Meanwhile, Cowboys head coach Jason Garrett’s solution at wide receiver is to use a committee approach and to make no changes to the coaching staff at this time.Giants news, 9/21: Giants need big plays from Odell Beckham Odell Beckham Jr. has 15 receptions after two games. That puts him on pace for a career-high 120 receptions. Which sounds nice until you realize his longest reception has been 24 yards and his 10.8 yards per catch average is 3.2 yards per catch below his career average of 14.0 yards per catch.The deep ball has been missing from the Giants’ offense. Eli Manning has completed 56 passes, but only one of them -- a 37-yarder to Cody Latimer last Sunday night in Dallas -- gained more than 25 yards.“It just hasn’t happened,” Beckham said today of the deep balls. “We had some shots Authentic Eli Manning Jersey , but we just didn’t connect on them. It’s all happening so fast, these first two games. Get the jitters out of the way, and get the season going.“It’s easier said than done. Like Coach said, you don’t just want to throw them into coverage and stuff like that, but just finding ways to get the ball into the hands of the playmakers and allow us to make plays and keep the ball moving, keep this offense going in the right direction.”“I think we need to get the ball in the hands of the playmakers the right way,” coach Pat Shurmur said. “The first game, Odell touched it a bunch (15 targets, plus a rushing attempt). Last game, Saquon (Barkley) touched it 25 times. Really, it doesn’t matter if we’re running it or throwing it to him, he touched the ball 25 times. We’ve got to do a better job in all areas so there’s a little bit more space, I get that, but it’s certainly important to get the ball to your playmakers and we will continue to do that the best we can.”“We want to obviously get him (Beckham) involved,” offensive coordinator Mike Shula said. “He’s such a productive player for us and get him involved early, so I think it’s just – the easiest thing to say is yeah we got to game plan that, but he and Eli, they have such a good feel for the game. Just continue to utilize, not just their talents, but their awareness and their intelligence to be able to get him the football, whether or not it’s short passes, inside passes Womens Connor Barwin Jersey , outside passes, all that kind of stuff.”Why the Giants added WR Stacy ColeyShurmur coached Coley, added via waivers on Wednesday, in Minnesota last season.“He’s got good speed, contributes on special teams and he’s caught punts before, kicks,” Shurmur said. “He has that ability and he was a young, developmental receiver when I had him a year ago. But he’s a good player and we’re fortunate he was available. We just felt like it would be a good guy to add to the mix.”Janoris Jenkins: Giants “way better” than they have shownCornerback Janoris Jenkins remains optimistic despite the Giants’ 0-2 start.“One game at a time. We understand what we’re in, what we got ourselves in, and we feel like we’re way better than that, so we’re just going to come out and play football, and have fun.”Around the Inter-GoogleGiants: Eli Manning not rolling over despite 0-2 startEli Manning has overcome plenty of adversity, and he is ready to do so again for the Giants against the Texans.PFF's NFL QB Rankings – after Week 2 | NFL Analysis | Pro Football FocusEditor Cam Mellor takes a closer look at how the NFL's starting 32 quarterbacks have fared through two weeks of play, ahead of the Thursday Night Football game between the Jets and Browns.It doesn’t get any easier now for Giants’ embattled offensive lineIt’s going to go one of two ways for the Giants offensive line Sunday in Houston — and only one of those ways is acceptable.The Giants’ 2018 season,...Jets, Giants need their youth to rescue potentially dismal seasonThe threat of another ugly New York football season is upon us.“Not easy, not easy,” WFAN host and former Jets quarterback Boomer Esiason said before this...Leonard: Plain and simple, Giants need to figure out way to get Odell Beckham Jr. the ball more often - NY Daily NewsThe Giants didn't pay Odell Beckham Jr. to be a decoy.
