Andrew Thomas’ Giants challenge all too familiar for Joe Thomas
NY Post
Andrew Thomas will step foot Sunday on a field that should have a commemorative landmark identifying it as the site where a dominant left tackle’s brilliance was wasted.
Hall of Famer Joe Thomas played an NFL-record 10,363 consecutive snaps and made 10 Pro Bowls during an 11-year career with the Browns that resulted in a .287 career winning percentage and zero playoff appearances.
He was a rock through a revolving door of six head coaches and 20 starting quarterbacks from 2007-2017.
The Giants have not reached that level of futility, and Andrew Thomas has not approached Joe Thomas’ standards, but another 0-2 start suggests a long playoff-less season is ahead for the fourth time in Andrew Thomas’ five-year career — even as he is the NFL’s top-graded pass-blocking offensive tackle, per Pro Football Focus.
“It’s really cool to see him go through the struggles that he did [as a rookie] and deal with that adversity,” Joe Thomas told The Post. “The toughness and the fortitude that he learned early on in his career is paying dividends because he is a mentally tough dude. He is showing great performance in the face of a challenging situation.”
Joe Thomas, a former NFL Network analyst, is an expert in finding the motivation when losses are piling up. He will be closely watching Andrew Thomas in Sunday’s Giants-Browns game.
