Joe Schoen, Brian Daboll share vision for 2022

That was true today, when the Giants held their first training camp practice, a fast-paced, 90-minute session that emphasized the red zone.

Schoen and Daboll are both new to their positions and in their first year with the Giants. They arrived six months ago and have since overhauled the coaching staff, front office and roster. Though confident they’ve made the correct decisions to improve the team’s fortunes, Schoen and Daboll are aware the revival is in its infancy. Because of that, their aggressive actions to improve the team are accompanied by cautious talk.

The Giants installed their new offensive and defensive systems in what the coaches said was a productive spring. How do they maintain that momentum with the start of training camp?

“I think just being yourself and taking things day-by-day and working as hard as you can with a good, positive attitude and being able to deal with things when they come your way,” Daboll said. “And it’s fine, and I appreciate the energy and all those types of things. But you really find out what kind of team you are when you start fighting through adversity and a loss or a bad thing happens. But we’re going to try to be as consistent as we can as a leadership group – scouting department, coaching staff, organization. I think consistency is key. Have high energy, be positive, but also be real about where we’re at and what we need to fit.”

Schoen exhibited his restraint was asked to reflect on what he’s accomplished thus far.

“I would say revamped roster, just looking at some of the players we’ve brought in and some of the guys we’ve had to move on from for various reasons,” Schoen said. “We haven’t been in pads yet. We get in pads on Monday. So again, from an O-line and D-line standpoint, seeing guys actually blocking with pads on. There’s a lot of things we still need to evaluate that you can get a feel for in the spring, but again to Dabs’ point: How are we going to respond to adversity? How are we going to respond to success?…
