![Brian Daboll is notoriously one of the more tight-lipped head coaches when speaking to the media, but some of the few words he uttered two weeks ago have only made the Giants’ quarterback situation more confusing. “I’m not going to make a week-to-week change,” Daboll said when asked why he named Tommy DeVito as the starter for Christmas Day against the Eagles immediately after the Giants had a dreary 24-6 loss to the Saints on Dec. 17, without even reviewing the film. “He’s earned it.

Turnover battle is key for Giants to win in Philadelphia for first time in a decade
![With this year’s peculiar NFL schedule not having the Giants play the Eagles until December, Big Blue has had nearly a whole year to reflect on what head coach Brian Daboll described as a crash landing in Philadelphia. The Giants (5-9) finally begin game week preparation for the Eagles (10-3) 11 months after falling to their rival in the NFC Divisional Round by 31 points. “We don’t think about the past too much, kind of focus on what’s ahead of us, but that definitely stung a little bit to get knocked out by a team in your division,” linebacker Micah […]](https://www.thereporteronline.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/12/AP23351718603860.jpg?w=132 "With this year’s peculiar NFL schedule not having the Giants play the Eagles until December, Big Blue has had nearly a whole year to reflect on what head coach Brian Daboll described as a crash landing in Philadelphia.

![EAST RUTHERFORD — Tyrod Taylor says he has lost his job as a starting quarterback “a number of times” throughout his 13-year NFL career because of an injury. This is just the latest instance. In the wake of the news that Tommy DeVito will make his fourth start for the Giants next Monday night, Taylor wants to be a good teammate but is clearly unhappy. “It’s the nature of the business,” Taylor said. “Obviously, this league is a ‘right now’ league.

![EAST RUTHERFORD — If you wanted to see football set back 100 years, then Patriots-Giants was the game for you on Sunday. While it was unsurprising to see the NFL’s two lowest-scoring teams again struggle mightily to get into field goal range — much less reach the end zone — the Giants’ 10-7 win at MetLife Stadium was still an embarrassing display of the professional sport. The teams combined for 14 punts and only 28 first downs. They each had three fumbles including one muffed punt apiece.
