Connor Hughes nails it... watch short video

Connor Hughes @Connor_J_Hughes

This was worse than what John Mara said would keep him up at night — a true nightmare for #Giants.

Not just because Barkley torched them, but because their offense has regressed from a year ago.

Reworked OL. New WR. New play caller.

Doesn’t matter

Great rant  
PatersonPlank : 10/21/2024 10:06 am : link
IMO nothing changes until the QB does. The rot is now spreading among the players
It’s a bit unfair  
GiantsFan84 : 10/21/2024 10:08 am : link
The giants were dog shit yesterday and yes especially the oline. They should get blasted. But let’s not let one game erase the previous 6.

But overall this year singletary and Tracy have been more than fine. And the offensive line had been good up until yesterday. Even the defense played well until they gave up because of the offense.

This team has one glaring and massive problem and it’s the QB. And this problem ruins everything else. There are other holes on the team but the reason they’ve been losing is the QB.
Yup  
bigblue5611 : 10/21/2024 10:13 am : link
There are areas of the team that have been bad at times, but if they had a QB who was playing average to above average, I have no doubt this team is at least above .500 right now.
I know he said Jones was terrible  
Lambuth_Special : 10/21/2024 10:14 am : link
But I'm seeing creeping "Jones isn't the only problem" discourse in that rant.
I want to not hear it is unfair  
jvm52106 : 10/21/2024 10:16 am : link
blah blah blah.. The reason we get exposed is because NOBODY fears our QB.. NOBODY.. Think about it:

Bengals had the 26th ranked defense and came in to our stadium and held this offense to 7 points! I don't want to hear missed FG's that is what a loser says.. We do not score TD's- PERIOD!

Cowboys- gave up 40 plus to the Saints, 30 plus to Ravens and 40 plus again to the Lions. We got 15 points- 5 FG's... Their defense was bang3ed up and lost more folks during the game..

Daniel Jones is a perfect fit for our STD motto as he is literally the Quarterback equivalent to herpes... He is embarrassing, we try to hide him, we sometimes are in the clear and have a good time but mostly we are sad and restricted by having him as the QB!
they are rapidly on the road

3 fumbles between Singletary and Tracy. THe OL has been up and down. The WRs have been dropping the ball all season. And guess what? Daniel Jones sucks, too. It's all bad.
"This is a demoralizing loss"  
iMatt : 10/21/2024 10:24 am : link
"This is an embarrassing loss"

Both of those are true statements, and yet somehow I'm going to have no memory of the game in about a month. It won't stand out among the rest of the demoralizing embarrassing losses over the last decade. Throw it on the pile.
How can you not blame Daboll for this  
larryflower37 : 10/21/2024 10:29 am : link
O-line, QB play, Play calling, Etc for a so called offense coach.
Don't give the conspiracy that the powers that be are making Daboll play certain people or not letting him shop for the groceries.
This is at his feet 2 1/2 years to build an offense and this is where we are.
Sometimes  
OlyWABigBlue : 10/21/2024 10:29 am : link
even the best teams throw a stinker but the Giants (especially the offense) really seemed to be honing their craft to reach the nadir they achieved.

4 fumbles, 4 INT this year. 14 teams have more giveaways tham the giants. Almost half the league. They're average.

They cannot overcome it because the offense is scoring 15 ppg. Circle back to the QB.

Issues become mountains because the qb cannot run a competitive offense. Everything has to be spotless to score points, and nothing in 11 on 11 football will ever be perfect.
Our Offense is easily defended. In fact, it's basically attacked.  
ThomasG : 10/21/2024 10:37 am : link
Said this yesterday too but they looked just like a few years back when Judge was still coaching and Fromm and Glennon were in at QB.

In fact, exactly like that.

Going nowhere.

The Banks quote reminds me of this

Yeah, let's not let one game erase the amazing first 6 weeks.

In the first 6 weeks, the Giants averaged 16 PPG, which would be 28th in the league.

Just for the hell of it, let's take out week 1 too. In that case,the Giants average 18 PPG, which is 26th.

Hell, in their single best game (29 points vs Seattle), they still scored less than 4 teams are averaging over 7 games

Even in their "good games", this team is a bottom dweller in terms of putting up points
To me at this point,  
dairborn : 10/21/2024 11:18 am : link
it's about what this organization accepts responsibility for. You have what you have. What you have put out there at this point is NOT working. DJ is done! Period! This has been beaten to death and we need to be grown up enough to say ENOUGH! Let's start cutting the ties and at least not be on the hook for the money if he gets hurt.

It's time to try something else. Can it get worse? Yup, it can, that's a guarantee. OH well! Drew Lock could be worse. Devito could be worse, but you have to try a different recipe. You owe it to the players to try something other than trying to get that stubborn square ped in a round hole. QB isn't the only spot I would try. See if Neal can play anywhere else. LT? G? See what you have, and if not, move on. Try something else for the love of God. Maybe he is trying to get fired!

Also, I am selling. Slayton, Ojulari, maybe even Hyatt (I know he is hurt)—get what you can with the players you can. Have a fire sale. This season is over. You can't save it, so NOW is the time to at least attempt to make things better in the future. Accept what you're responsible for, Bench Daniel for the rest of the season, prepare for the future, and start evaluating what pieces can fit for the days ahead.
I don't even think DJ's biggest critics  
mittenedman : 10/21/2024 11:20 am : link
would've expected this.

He's got a much better OL and a WR1 and it hasn't even caused a small uptick in performance. It's incredible. He is arguably worse now than ever.
It's all about the QB  
Jim in Tampa : 10/21/2024 11:32 am : link
I was in the minority thinking that the Giants should have kept Barkley. Yes, a team can always "make due" at RB with mediocre FA RBs and non-premium draft picks. But a top RB like Barkley is not that easy to replace and he could have made a difference.

Having said that, I desperately wanted the Giants to draft a QB in 2018 and I was dead set against drafting Barkley.

And this morning, as I watched the condensed version of the Bills v. Titans game, I couldn't help but wonder, if the Giants had drafted Josh Allen... would Pat Shurmur still be our HC?
Has a QB ever  
cjac : 10/21/2024 11:37 am : link
Stayed the starter through 3 Head Coaching changes?

I can’t believe we’re about to fire a 3rd coach with the same shitty QB. I don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like it before
I am no Jones fan but I don’t think he’s playing as well  
cosmicj : 10/21/2024 11:50 am : link
As 2021 and certainly 2022. Those offenses were limited but they weren’t utterly punch less. Jones badly needs a change of scenery and some time to regroup. I’m not saying he’s a legit starter but he’s getting worse, not improving.
Can’t say it any better or more accurate than that.  
DeVito32 : 10/21/2024 11:57 am : link
Nailed it.
I couldn’t possibly give a shit less  
Greg from LI : 10/21/2024 12:07 pm : link
About what Saquon fucking Barkley does.
Us fans can bitch and moan all we want  
Sam Huff : 10/21/2024 12:09 pm : link
but when sportswriters and sports reporters on TV say publicly what we are all thinking, then maybe some changes will happen.

It's all interrelated. No DC gives a rat's ass about Tracy and Singletary. No one is planning anything special to stop this dynamic duo. It's not like they establish some identity that the rest of the offense can revolve around. Whatever they get, they get. Stay in your rush lanes, play the short routes and let Danny Dimes play Captain Checkdown. Someone gets open down field. Oh well, 2/3 of the time Captain Checkdown is going to miss them anyway.

And hey, it works. Giants are 30th in the league in points for, 27th in yardage and haven't scored more than 3 td's in any game with 9 total on offense for the season.
Jones has lost speed  
DavidinBMNY : 10/21/2024 12:46 pm : link
In the running game. He's less of an asset running and it hurts his game even more.

The QB is toast

Huh? Erase the previous 6? He is talking about their overall offense, avg. PPG, etc. This isn't about 1 game and he said as much. It is about the offense as a whole being AWFUL.
I won't say Jones is the beginning and the end of the problems  
Matt M. : 10/21/2024 2:20 pm : link
But, he certainly is the beginning. I think a lot of the problems on offense stem from having him as the QB. He is bad. This is year 6. We don't need to see more.

Anyone that tries to throw in Thomas being hurt...what about the prior 6 weeks? He has been mostly meh to bad, with one good game in Seattle, which still was not anywhere near a special game. There is nothing more to see or say. It is time to move on and he may benefit from that also.
The worst part is that the GM  
Doubledeuce22 : 10/21/2024 2:27 pm : link
they should have brought in is now the GM for Washington as they sit atop the division. John Mara needs to step down as President and let real football minds make these decisions. He is lost.
