wow wow wow.
the topic that will never leave this board until Jones does .
this thread(as its called) started Oct 9th, after the London game vs the Packers.
ElidaGoat started this topic with one line, "He is the guy. Daniel Jones carried the Giants to a win with a bum ankle and a ton of injuries on the team".
many of us have posted numerous times on the subject , where its IMO, 2/3 against Jones, maybe 1/3 for.
Im against, Ive seen enough, he just does not have it.
he hasnt gotten better nor made anyone around him better. Big plays are nil, and every week is a struggle.
and this new coach staff plays towards his strengths which IS NOT PASSING, imagine a QB where his weakness is his passing game (ugh) we got him. and its why he got to go.
lastly, on these last few pages, someone asks if he wasnt extended bc of his neck injury.
ummm.NO.
he wasnt extended bc he is not that good, he is not what Daboll & Co want.
he is a guy that we might win a few games around, maybe make a playoff appearance with some better players too, BUT by and large he is NOT the future decade of NYG and thats why he has not been extended.
personally Jones might be a great guy a nice fellow etc etc.....If I were him I would leave the Giants and look for another opportunity. ...I dont know how he can stay , he knows that the coaches dislike or disrespect his game and feel its inadequate, i mean c'mon we all see the game plan, the plays called , its bleech !...and knowing this should be the impetus for him to leave. Look, he's gonna get paid millions by someone, Not 30+++, but NFL QBs of his kind still get 20+mil. so why would he stay, he will always be lame duck here, and next year If he is here, and more is expected, he would be even more lame duck as I can see games where he would be pulled. So maybe Jones does us all a favor and goes.
as said, he is a guy, Not the guy. and he is not the first, Mariotta, Mayfield, Geno Smith is on act#2 bc 1st act was curtailed by injury. Jets #1 pick is benched. Mac Jones is on a short leash, and Tua in Miami was pulled from games last year and this year WAS playing better until now , where in Decemeber he is a 50% passer or so and winless.( so who knows if he is franchise for Maimi)
Goff was a SB quarterback and jettisoned from Los Angelos.
and if you go back year after year to top QB picked in first round it is littered with guys like Jones.
so I wish him well, au revoir, adios, zay gezunt.
