I don't care how many decent road games he puts up.
Last five starts at home: 0 tds, 8 ints.
That is not even NFL backup caliber. I know this has been covered to some extent, but is not fair to the rest of the team to continue to start a QB who simply cannot perform at home.
He has to actually lead touchdown drives in this upcoming game to stay the starter. If not, we're just going to get back on this endless treadmill: Jones maybe puts up a decent game @Steelers, then flops again at home against Washington.
Would Lock or DeVito be worse on the road? Probably, but you can't start a QB who is simply not reliable at home.
I think he at least has to throw a TD pass or two, or throw them into TD scoring position several times. Low bar I know, but the bar is the floor at this point.
And if the decision isn’t already made in his long term future with the Giants, we are well and truly fucked.
The limitations of Jones is affecting every aspect of this team.
Give me Lock or Devito.
Where are these rumblings coming from?
They need him gone and the stage set for a new QB(s) to be brought in more than they need to win in 2024. Davoli's future be damned.
The problem is that the coach and GM are between a rock and a hard place.
And if the decision isn’t already made in his long term future with the Giants, we are well and truly fucked.
As much as I hate to admit it, the road version of him is fine, so he should maybe get one more chance to get over his home yips against a weak defense.
However, if he sucks at home again, I think the locker room will likely be one inch away from revolting, so their hand will get closer to being forced. The Schwartz article is already hinting at it.
There is no way Daboll has the authority to bench Jones. So he'd have to go to a meeting with Mara and beg him for permission.
Mara is in love with Daniel Jones and has a track record of killing coaches early and often. Whoever the QB is, we are probably winning 6 or 7 games this year. If Daboll burns his equity by embarrassing Daniel, he's a lot more likely to get fired.

+1. I don't get the notion of a last chance here. He's had innumerable chances over six seasons. Only the blind can't see that he's not a quality NFL starter.
Sucking with Jones just isn't anymore. Too much damage has been done. Turn the friggin' page.
I think he puts too much pressure on himself to do well in front of a fan base that mostly never had his back..in fact burning his jersey and being cursed out doesn’t alleviate those issues.. not making excuses but under those situations doesn’t result in a relaxed playing atmosphere

If the Giants were a functional organization, that discussion should be happening right now, with Daboll coming in to the room with Mara and saying "my fucking quarterback can't throw a TD at home and we can't win that way."
Can't help but feel like like Belichick, Parcells, Peyton, McVay etc. would take one look at his last five home games and either sit down with him and tell him to get together right now or just bench him outright.

dont get how bad he is at home... it astounding the last 2 defenses in Dallas and Cincy were AWFUL too.

His sucking at home goes all the way back to his rookie season when the fans had his back. 6 TDs, 9 Ints at home, versus 18 TDs, 3 INTs away. Ironically, his best game at Metlife that season happened when they were an away team against the Jets.
He was ok at home in 2020, when there weren't any fans, and 2022 when he benefitted from a weak schedule at Metlife. Even then, he struggled against better competition at home outside of the Ravens.
The fans also literally changed his name against the Colts that season, so I would say they are dying to suppot him. He just can't play well enough to give them anything to cheer for!
I know you and few others like Terps fear the 25' possibility, but that will be literally impossible the way he's playing at home. It's become a national narrative this week. He will also eventually put up a stinker on the road and that will be it.
Fair point, and also worth noting that DeVito seemed to struggle really hard in the tougher road environments last year outside of Washington.
They should've done a DeVito/Jones home and road platoon.
In the Giants' world, he's probably the starter on opening day 2025.
They deserve to have him start and finish every game this year. I want to see their faces when the boos rain down.
It's their bed. Let them lay in it.

Desperate times mean desperate measures.

It's not a relaxed atmosphere Jones at home because he consistently fails to put up points there, it has nothing to do with the fans being mean.
What are we getting out of starting Jones more games?
Jesus Christ rip the bandaid off already.

The fanbase was so desperate to support him that they chanted his name two years ago for being the QB of a playoff team. Nevermind that his individual performance was still rather pedestrian that season, the fans were eager to rally around DJ in 2022.
Since then, he's been outright bad much more often than not. The fanbase is now tough on DJ because of how DJ has played.
Don't blame the fans. Blame the guy(s) who have abused the fanbase by subjecting us to 6(+?) years of mediocrity.

So I guess he isn't mentally built to play in NY. We have heard time and time again about how he's so mentally tough, and how he can handle the pressure of being in NY, and thats why it's important to keep giving him chances. Turns out, that's bullshit. So this guy has average physical tools, slow eyes, is injury prone, and he can't handle the pressure of being the QB in NY. I'm glad we gave him the largest contract in franchise history (both by dollar values and percentage of the cap)

Yup, and since Jones supporters are prone to making Eli and Simms comparisons, neither of those guys had it very easy with the fans either to start. Simms was booed on draft day, and Eli was getting hammered throughout 2007, coincidentally for putting up some bad home games.
If he can't put up points at home and still turns the ball over, he should stop being the QB this year. It's not fair to the rest of the 52 players on the roster to trot out a guy with the yips at Metlife.
And while he's played well on the road, it's easy to forget that he was bailed out of two potential back-breaking turnovers at the beginning of the Seattle and Cleveland games.
The limitations of Jones is affecting every aspect of this team.

It's looking worse than that, the '25 QBs aren't very promising thus far. Fans love Milroe but I think he's overrated in terms of potential NFL franchise QB, for example.

I did not love Milroe this past weekend. So many of his passes looked like 'college passes' which sail in the air far too much. However, I'll trust Sy on this and he does have the physical tools.
THIS!
Don't bet that the Giants aren't gonna do another year of the Daniel Jones Show. In fact, I'd bet $$ he WILL be back. I'd also bet they don't draft a QB AGAIN. I've never seen anything like the man-love this team has for a bad Duke QB. Somewhere Dave Brown must be screaming over the unfairness of it all.

Right now I'm on the Sanders train, even though that is probably a pipe dream.

Been watching a lot of him since I'm in Big XII country, and I very much like what I see.

Year 7 is impossible with his current play at home. His struggles at Metlife have been picked up nationally now and the team won't be able to hide it unless he turns it around.
The Eagle fans hate their own team on most days. Can you imagine the abuse Daniel would get if he was their QB for the past 6 years???????
Yet we have to put up with him.
Jerry would have just put his hands on Daniel's shoulders and told him. "Son, Consider another career."

We could've gotten the guy the Steelers are benching Fields for a cup of coffee but we couldn't even give him a modest chance at competing for the starting job.
And yet we are talking about benching Jones in week 7 regardless.
He just seems resigned to the situation, like not fighting it anymore
On Hard Knocks Daboll's face lit up at the prospect of Jayden Daniels. You could see it.
My perspective on Daboll right now is that he is doing all he can to scheme the offense, and in that he is showing ownership that the team is hamstrung by Jones. But as someone alluded to yesterday, the locker room is only going to tolerate so much before it reaches it's peak of being fed up, and Daboll has to balance that to have the team buy in each week. Jones cannot remain the starter the whole season, and if John Mara doesn't like it, he can get lost.
Penix, Nix, and JJM (if healthy) would presumably all be learning in the background and getting ready to replace Jones.
I think you need to wipe off your crystal ball again.

Would have been better off losing to CLE and SEA, Jones may already be riding the pine and we'd be on track to guarantee our QB in April 2025.

I'd like for them to scout the QBs as heavy as they did in 2024. Looks like drafting Nix would have been an error. Jury is out on McCarthy obviously. But they made the right call for 2024 anyway - seemingly it was Maye or bust in the first round. Don't overdraft a QB just to do it in 2025. Take the best player at their pick.

Let’s be honest, leaving aside pipe dream scenarios in which Jones and the Giants go to the NFC Championship Game, what he really wants is for them to win 7 games, draft 12th and be out of range for any “reach” QBs.
Couldn't be more wrong.
Quote:
“Taking the best player” at the pick is meaningless if they don’t find a quarterback

Then why are they scoring the same amount of points as last year after fixing the oline and adding Nabers?

Let's be honest guys, if the Patriots took the trade deal Drake Maye would be here but the fact is they didn't.
I wanted Giants to get Maye, would have supported it 10000%. What you can't do is just take quarterbacks to take them. That gets you into a worse position than you are already in.
And yeah, could Bo Nix turn out to be slightly better than Daniel Jones? Sure.
But Bo Nix is the same exact thing that you guys say the Giants did with Jones which was a mistake - and that is overdraft them.
Giants took Nabers who may turn out to be the best receiver in the entire league. Why would the Giants draft a QB who they don't believe is a really good prospect - instead of taking a guy they all had conviction on? That would be absolutely ridiculous.

I think we go for the QB with the best traits and thrower of the football and pray to god Daboll can do something with him.
2025/2026 - whatever. Try to get the guy they really like.
But the Giants should, and will, continue to bulk up the roster with all pro caliber players. Nabers is that.
Are you asking the Giants to reach for a player that isn't good?

The last QB the Giants drafted was Daniel Jones, six years ago. Only the Chiefs and Seahawks have gone longer since drafting ANY QB.
So yes, you can absolutely draft a QB just to draft a QB at some point. In fact, failing to draft ANY quarterback at all for more than half a decade is malpractice.

The Giants have won 1 game this year with Nabers, but would probably have 4 or 5 wins with a different QB.
And while drafting Jones was a miss, the bigger more glaring mistake is that he's still here. You think if Nix doesn't improve he's the DEN starter in 2029?
Malik Nabers's influence on this team has been zero. The offense was pathetic with him on it.
Jones is on the roster. He's the starter. They have an out after this season. So...one of two things will happen. He'll either start to play better more consistently and they'll compete for the playoffs. Or he'll continue to not be consistent and they'll cut him after 2025.
I don't understand what the point of bringing players like Bo Nix into the argument is. It makes us look like an idiotic fanbase. Nix sucks. Has anyone watched him play this year? Jones looked like a hall of famer his rookie season compared to what Nix is doing.

I have watched Nix. He's not a good quarterback.

If you've watched Nix, you can see he's already a better player than Jones (admittedly a very low bar) and is smart enough to take on quite a bit. I expect he will look quite a bit better in the second half of this season and much better next year.

Not right now, but he's a smart and talented player with only 6 games under his belt. You can see how he'll get better. And he's already a better, smarter player than Jones is.
You said Jones isn't consistent. That's not correct. He is consistently poor. Of the 90 or so QBs in the league Jones ranks 40-50.
It's really been a remarkable ride with this guy.

Because I'd like to know how you can make such a definitive conclusion on Nix after six games. Yes, six. And Denver is 3-3.

You said the same thing about Jayden Daniels, and Caleb Williams for that matter. You gave Jones 6 years and counting (did you see the Minnesota game???!!!), but won't give Nix 6 games. I wasn't a huge fan of Nix's, but he deserves more than a third of a rookie season to show if he can be successful.
In NY, you need six years.
Does anyone else find this strange?

The Denver roster is bulletproof, so it's a good controlled experiment on a QB's actual impact on W/L.
We, by contrast, don't have a 1st rounder for WR#2, among other things.
I think the Q is did Sean Payton see enough in Nix to think he could turn him into a good QB and if so is that a good reason to pick a QB when you need one?
I happen to think so.
Quote:

Are you asking the Giants to reach for a player that isn't good?
No, I’m suggesting that you want them to be in a position in the draft where you (and they) can find something wrong with the available QBs.
It’s the same reason many of the people who took the most joy out of the Tommy DeVito experience last year are long time Jones supporters who were THRILLED that those wins put the top 3 QBs out of reach.
I don’t think you want to move on from Jones. You’ll say that they “can” but you don’t want to.
For example, this past draft Sy had higher grades on 4 non QBs (MHJ, Odunze, Nabors, Bowers) than any QB. So if you are going BPA, at 1 overall, you aren't taking Caleb, or Drake or Jayden, because they are ranked lower than 4 non-QB players. If you truly believe BPA, then you would say you would take a QB at the earliest this past year at 4. You will never get a QB with this approach.
Also, according to Sy's grades, the Patriots taking Maye of MHJ (9 points diff in OVR) was a bigger reach than if the Giants took McCarthy over Nabors (7 points diff in OVR).
There is no way Daboll has the authority to bench Jones. So he'd have to go to a meeting with Mara and beg him for permission.
Mara is in love with Daniel Jones and has a track record of killing coaches early and often. Whoever the QB is, we are probably winning 6 or 7 games this year. If Daboll burns his equity by embarrassing Daniel, he's a lot more likely to get fired.
This carp that Mara is in love with DJ holds no water with me. Maybe he was at one time, but constant losing changes opinions. I've been a DJ supporter since the draft. I continue to see instances of fine performances where I think he's going to be fine. However, that game Monday night was there to be won. DJ was Soley responsible for that loss. It was an atrocious performance, maybe his worst game ever. He let down his teammates, his coaches, the fans and himself, I think he should have said that at the post-game press conference. He has a ton of pressure and mis fortune,
but that only goes so far. If I'm upset with him, I'm sure Mara is too. IMO, If the next few games don't result in better play, make the change. Looks to me like he's lost his confidence. I've seen him play bad, but Monday was ridiculous!!

Would love to hear him explain how drafting Nix was an error, but we need more time on Jones.

You guys have to stop taking Ryan seriously. The only way he got over his attachment to Gettleman’s brilliance was by transferring it to Daniel Jones’ quality play.
Ryan loves this team, but he watches it through the bluest tinted glasses that exist. He isn’t critically evaluating anything.
It’s hilarious because he’s still holding out hope that Daniel Jones is going to break out and somehow become consistently good and can’t bring himself to admit that he stinks.
“He’s the starter. They have an out after this season”
He shouldn’t be the starter. And so what that they have an out? They’re still wasting a season where the rest of the team is playing well and the division and looks fairly weak and the conference looks pretty wide open. They’re still wasting can’t even take advantage because they couldn’t entertain the idea of an actual competition at quarterback. Jones was preordained as the starter, no questions asked. Infuritating.
I'd really like to see Lock play and if the offense changes at all.
Giants have played 6 games. They aren't going to all of a sudden pack up shop and call it a season.
The bulk of you guys crying like little girls that the season is over is pathetic.
Let me guess - all of you hope we lose to Philly on Sunday right? Get over yourselves.

The season is over, once again before Halloween. For the 5th time in 6 tries under Daniel Jones.
You and your love fest for a bad quarterback is pathetic.
Giants have played 6 games. They aren't going to all of a sudden pack up shop and call it a season.
The bulk of you guys crying like little girls that the season is over is pathetic.

It's not hope, it's reality. Philly wrote the book on Jones, so I have little faith that he'll have some kind of break-out game. Here's more reality, both Tyrod Taylor and Davis Webb (!) have had better games v Philly in one start each than Jones ever has. So who's crying now?
You're right guys, I was the one who initially brought up Nix. My bad.
I think don't think Nix will prove to be any better than Jones when all is said and done. So I'd prefer the Giants try to win this year with Jones and pick a higher ceiling quarterback than Nix next year.
See how that expresses similar sentiment, but doesn't make you sound like a total sniveling baby?
Do you really want that?
Now if Daboll ISN"T the head coach, I'll expect they'll go after a cheaper Vet to be stopgap until next year.
But still they try to see
Why something Jones can hurt so bad
Caught on a one-way street
The taste of bittersweet
Jones will survive somehow, somewhere
One Jones, feeds the fire
One Mara, burns desire
I wonder who's crying now?
Two hearts, born to run
Who'll be the lonely one?
I wonder who's crying now?

stuck with Jones. Just a feeling, but his body language and responses seem to tell me that he was against this Jones decision but told by Schoen/Mara to just do the best he can with Jones this season because its all they have. His jog will be safe, and next year they will get him a QB.
He just seems resigned to the situation, like not fighting it anymore
On Hard Knocks Daboll's face lit up at the prospect of Jayden Daniels. You could see it.
My perspective on Daboll right now is that he is doing all he can to scheme the offense, and in that he is showing ownership that the team is hamstrung by Jones. But as someone alluded to yesterday, the locker room is only going to tolerate so much before it reaches it's peak of being fed up, and Daboll has to balance that to have the team buy in each week. Jones cannot remain the starter the whole season, and if John Mara doesn't like it, he can get lost.
SI says Dolphins, Raiders, Rams could land him.
What would be his price? Do Panthers let him go for less than a number one? First round seems steep for a player with his record, but Panthers will keep him and ease him back into the starting job.
Giants have no serious candidates to audition in the second half of the season. Criminal.

I definitely want the Giants to lose to Philly. Wins right now just encourage more bad behavior.
After 6 plus years, this team needs to come out of the wilderness and find a direction. The main way out of this is to part ways with Daniel Jones. It would be a step into the light plus would give him a second chance to prove himself on another team. So a win-win.

That Jones is the starting QB in 2025 than getting benched next week.
There is no way Daboll has the authority to bench Jones. So he'd have to go to a meeting with Mara and beg him for permission.
Mara is in love with Daniel Jones and has a track record of killing coaches early and often. Whoever the QB is, we are probably winning 6 or 7 games this year. If Daboll burns his equity by embarrassing Daniel, he's a lot more likely to get fired.
This carp that Mara is in love with DJ holds no water with me. Maybe he was at one time, but constant losing changes opinions. I've been a DJ supporter since the draft. I continue to see instances of fine performances where I think he's going to be fine. However, that game Monday night was there to be won. DJ was Soley responsible for that loss. It was an atrocious performance, maybe his worst game ever. He let down his teammates, his coaches, the fans and himself, I think he should have said that at the post-game press conference. He has a ton of pressure and mis fortune,
but that only goes so far. If I'm upset with him, I'm sure Mara is too. IMO, If the next few games don't result in better play, make the change. Looks to me like he's lost his confidence. I've seen him play bad, but Monday was ridiculous!!
JFC, well if we don't see an improvement in DJ's play over the next few games...
What the hell have you been watching the last 6 years? DJ has been an absolute shitshow of a QB and you still need to see MORE!!!
