Giants' Brian Daboll Risks Jaxson Dart's Future to Win—Fans Demand Protection!

Giants' Brian Daboll Risks Jaxson Dart's Future to Win—Fans Demand Protection!

EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – The New York Giants exploded for a surprise 34-17 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles on Thursday Night Football (Oct. 9, 2025), shaking the nation. However, head coach Brian Daboll's reliance on rookie QB Jaxson Dart's risky plays has fans worried about his long-term health after a hard hit sparked concerns about a concussion.

Dart, the 22-year-old 25th overall pick, shined against Philly's defense, completing 17-of-25 passes for 195 yards, a touchdown, and adding a 20-yard run. "Jaxson is our guy!" fan Mike Russo tweeted, as #GiantsPride reached 2 million views on X. His composure, not giving up the ball, helped the Eagles hold their own.

However, Dart’s 13-play, 58-yard run saw him take some hard hits, including a missed hit from Patrick Johnson in the third quarter that required him to be checked for a concussion. “Daboll needs to protect Dart!” fan Sarah Klein posted. Daboll’s heated sideline reaction to Russell Wilson’s brief time playing showed how much he relies on his rookie to win.

The Giants’ strategy — leveraging Dart’s dual-threat offense — has paid off, helping them improve to 2-4 with their first NFC East win since 2023. However, fans are concerned about Dart’s durability. “He’s strong, but he can’t take those hits all season!” @BigBlueFanatic tweeted. At 6-foot-3 and 215 pounds, Dart doesn’t have the physical strength to consistently take hard hits over a 17-game season.

Daboll will have to teach Dart how to slide or dodge hard hits, a crucial skill for NFL quarterbacks. “Quarters who run like Dart need to stay healthy, not be heroes,” fan Joey Martelli wrote. Limiting the number of designed runs — beyond a few per game — could help Dart avoid the risk of a concussion, especially after three tests in four games.

Big Blue Nation is hopeful, thanks to Dart and RB Cam Skattebo (98 yards, 3 TDs). “Protect Jaxson, and we’ll make the playoffs!” fan Emily Chen tweeted. Daboll’s job may depend on keeping Dart safe. If the Giants want their rookie to have a bright future, they must prioritize his health over short-term glory.

Seahawks Owner Jody Allen Calls On NFL To Review Results After Legend Marshawn Lynch Is Left Off The 2026 Hall Of Fame List – And The Reason Behind It Has The Seahawks Community Furious
Seattle, Washington – November 26, 2025 The Seattle Seahawks are experiencing one of the most shocking days in recent franchise memory after Marshawn Lynch, the heart of the Pete Carroll era and a cultural icon in the city, was not included among the 26 semifinalists for the 2026 Hall of Fame class. The disappointment was already heavy, but true outrage only erupted when team owner Jody Allen officially demanded that the NFL review the decision. It was an uncommon move, as Jody Allen rarely enters public debates. But when the legacy of Marshawn Lynch appeared to be subjected to unfair treatment, she chose to speak louder than ever before. In a statement sent to the NFL and the media, her tone carried the frustration felt across Seattle — direct, emotional, and unapologetically honest. “With everything Marshawn Lynch has given — to this city, to this community, to the history of the NFL — seeing him left off the semifinalist list is deeply disappointing. If not Marshawn Lynch, I honestly don’t know who deserves it more. The NFL needs to reevaluate how they measure the value of a legend.” Her words immediately spread throughout the 12s community, igniting a wave of anger unlike anything fans have expressed in years. Lynch is remembered not just for statistics — over 10,000 rushing yards, 85 touchdowns, and a series of unforgettable playoff moments — but for reshaping Seattle’s offensive identity. Moments like “Beast Quake” or his impossible runs through entire defenses remain part of NFL folklore. To Seahawks fans, leaving Lynch out feels like erasing a crucial chapter of league history. For Seattle, this isn’t merely disappointment. It feels like a denial of fairness toward a player who delivered the franchise’s greatest nights at Lumen Field. The Hall of Fame’s increasingly tough stance toward modern-era running backs only adds to the frustration, as many believe Lynch stands as the clearest example of impact beyond the box score. Jody Allen’s response has unified the Seahawks community. To her — and to millions of fans — Marshawn Lynch’s path to Canton is far from over. And Seattle will not quiet down until one of the greatest players in franchise history receives the respect and recognition he has earned.
