1 hour ago 2

The New York Giants had an ugly offensive Week 1.

In Week 2, they erupted, although it wasn't enough to beat the Dallas Cowboys.

The byproduct of the huge passing game against Dallas was the spots that Wan'Dale Robinson and Malik Nabers now hold on one NFL leaderboard.

Robinson leads the league in receiving yards gained on deep passes. Nabers is second, according to Michael F. Florio.

Nabers was already a star as a rookie last fall, so his performance hasn't been surprising.

Robinson has taken people by surprise, though.

But QB Russell Wilson certainly likes him. He compared him to his former Seahawks teammate, Tyler Lockett.

And it's a totally different usage for Robinson. The Giants didn't use to throw him the ball down the field.

Now that they are, in this early-season small sample, it's working.

If the Giants keep airing it out, there'll be some hits and misses.

But Robinson and Nabers have certainly showed that they can make it work.
