Green Bay Packers (2020) Active Roster for Week 11, 12

New York Giants (2021)



The New Jersey Generals are going to be a grind it out ball control offense. A run balanced offense. The draft consisted of many versatile O-Linemen. The Generals did a great job in making such decisions. I see the Generals as a smashmouth offense. Look for the Blast, Counters, Dives and Sweeps with this offense. Along with the versatility in Quarterback Luis Perez, he will be successful and use this style of play to catch a defense off guard. The New Jersey Generals are my sleeper in rushing yards per team in the 2022 Season.
