Giants coach Brian Daboll has pivoted to Jaxson Dart, and the move is paying dividends as New York has opened games with TD drives in all three starts for Dart, going 2-1 in that span. The sustained progress has Daboll flirting with a more stable future, even as a concussion-protocol investigation looms after the Philly game. Across the league, several top-7 picks have underperformed, but Daboll’s gamble on youth gives the Giants a tangible path forward and shifts the coaching-fire chatter in his direction.

Meanwhile, Daboll’s quarterback shift highlights a broader coaching-odds landscape where Mike McDaniel leads the firing-pool, with Stefanski and Daboll among the contenders. The upcoming test at Denver, led by Payton, will be a true barometer. For fantasy and betting, the Dart era in New York under Daboll represents a critical pivot point, where continued success could redefine the season and the franchise’s trajectory.
