New York Giants bell-cow running back Cam Skattebo fell well short of his lofty personal expectations for Week 5.

Writer Lior Lampert criticizes New York Giants running back Cam Skattebo following the team's 27-27 overtime tie against the Washington Commanders in Week 5. Despite asking offensive coordinator Matt Nagy for the ball prior to the game, Skattebo struggled to deliver consistent production, totaling 59 rushing yards on 13 carries and committing a costly late-game fumble.
Lampert argues that Skattebo's lack of early effectiveness forced the Giants to over-rely on backup quarterback Jameis Winston, who threw 54 passes. The writer contends that the Giants must generate more from Skattebo and the ground attack going forward to avoid putting excessive pressure on Winston.
