Rough night for Kyle. Including the two int's(both underthrown deep balls), he missed on another two deep balls on consecutive plays where the wr was wide open. One was slightly overthrown and the other underthrown. He was at his best when moving outside the pocket and throwing on the run. Hopefully he improves over the course of the season.

Believe they also signed Seth______ as a UDFA. He was a DB maybe graduated around 2010? Seth Williams?

He even has his own player card. Can we get it in a bubble gum Pack?

This jets analyst really panned Davis Webb.

Kyle is waiting.
https://www.richmond.com/sports/pro...cle_adfee109-eaf8-5847-ae94-aa71f130ac9b.html
When Kyle Lauletta played before a full house at Robins Stadium on the University of Richmond campus, he was surrounded by 8,700 interested spectators.
When, or if, he steps on the field as the quarterback for the New York Giants, he will be in front of 82,500 demanding fans.
Lauletta is one or probably two unfortunate plays from entering a game as the Giants' quarterback.
The UR graduate, a fourth-round draft choice of the Giants last spring, made the team and begins his wait for regular-season action Sunday when the Giants play the Jacksonville Jaguars.
Lauletta is listed as the co-backup, with Alex Tanney, to Eli Manning, one of the most durable quarterbacks in the NFL. Before he was benched for one game last season, Manning had started 210 consecutive games for the Giants.
"I don't really know my role right now," Lauletta said. "But if I did, it wouldn't really change anything. So I'm just going to approach it the same way and continue to learn and help No. 10 [Manning] out as much as I can.
"I'm ready. I think I'm very ready, and if my number were to ever get called, I think I would be ready to go. I have all the confidence in the world in myself. If, indeed, I do have to play this season, then I'll be ready to go, no doubt about that."
The more likely scenario for now is that Tanney is the backup and Lauletta is the No. 3 quarterback. Tanney has been with eight teams since he signed with Kansas City as an undrafted free agent out of Monmouth College in Illinois in 2012. He has played in one game, for Tennessee in 2015, and completed 10 of 14 passes for 99 yards, with a touchdown and no interceptions.

This is exactly what happened as Kyle was inactive and Tanney served as the backup. I suspect it stays that way unless Eli gets a season ending injury. If that happens, I think the Kyle era starts!
From an article today on the Giants' web site following the their win:
Kerry Wynn’s calendar read “August”
Defensive lineman Kerry Wynn’s domination throughout training camp and preseason became legendary over the summer — to the point where Giants fans joked that the team took him off the field to give the other team a chance to evaluate their offense.
After a pair of quiet weeks to open the season, Wynn turned the clock back to August against the Texans. The former UDFA out of Richmond was in on seemingly every play in the first half, and forced a fumble to derail a promising drive by the Texans and get the ball back to the offense in the second half. He also helped create Mario Edwards Jr’s sack as well as batting down a pass near the end of the game.
The Giants’ entire defensive line played very well this game, with B.J. Hill getting the first sack of his NFL career, but Wynn is probably the defensive player of the game for the Giants.
The Texans have a suspect offensive line, but Wynn stepped up in a big way as Olivier Vernon still tries to work his way back from the high ankle sprain he suffered in preseason.

I definitely saw him on the sideline at the Dallas game, working with Manning. He had his jersey on, but I don't believe he was in pads.
Manning's run is almost over. I think we will see Lauletta on the field this season.

Here is a post game assessment of Manning.

As much as it hurts to say it about an athlete who has always carried himself with grace in the world's noisiest market, Manning's exit is no longer a question of when, but how...

Several commentators are calling for Lauletta to play in the Giant's next game.

The question is whether Kyle is ready for it. The Giant's o-line is terrible and Manning is running for his life. He is getting crushed.
Man, listening to Golic talk so dismissively about Kyle Lauletta this morning really salted my Friday.
