When DG selected PS as the coach, he said you need to be an adult to coach the NYG... This week, he talked at (relative) length about what it takes to play QB in NY. Clearly he’s looking for things beyond the game tapes ... demonstrated mental toughness and ability to overcome adversity. The cujones to call the draw in the last minute inside the 10 without any timeouts. So did he tip his hand on the available QBs? To me, it would say both Rosen and Sloter could still be in play.
Pretty funny, we hear the same thing....but have totally different thoughts.
I don’t want QB, and I hope I’m wrong ... praying a team trades ahead and pushes Allen or Q to 6.
One guy mentions Sloter. Another seconds. Soon you've got a bunch of other people that have never seen him play and probably never heard of the guy yelling, "Get Sloter!"
Just keep in mind, if the guy was any good would the Vikings have emptied the vault to pay for Cousins?
I don't either. I think he may be a character in Game Of Thrones or something

only one around here who doesn't even know who Sloter is?

No, I think he's that surfer guy who was banging Pamela Anderson.

Fwiw, I consider this a non story, but just answering your question.
Also:
Someone read it somewhere and spewed it as fact and rather than think for themselves the sheep have flocked along with the false narrative.
He could’ve quit last year, ripped his teammates and organization in the media, or tapped out from the physical beating he was forced to take last year ... but he didn’t. Yet he’s still an immature “coach killer” who shouldn’t be a Giant ... its ridiculous. If they can get him for 37, it is a no brainer.

College kid enjoying life ... this is ridiculous to critique. “But what if the carpet got wet?! The horror?!”
Such a joke.

Please stop with some of this nonsense.
That's the "PG" rated version obviously...:)
As is inviting just one.
he should invite dudes that wear shirts instead?
Wasn’t he Zach Morris best friend in Saved by the Bell?

Hey whatever your into, but the hot tub is the church of banging. Everyone has to be shirtless.
Without a doubt, that screams sure-fire starter and Hall of Famer

Reminds me of a story from "The Open Man," by Dave DeBusschre. He was talking about a guy who spent ten years in the NBA, getting traded to a different team every year, who put on a uniform and laced up his sneakers every day but never got in a game. DeBusschre said in ten years he wore out one pair of sneakers and ten pairs of laces.

It is because It Giants has alluded he is in discussion for a trade. Which is weird because he can be had for a conditional 6th more than likely.
Jones may be mature and poised, but when has he demonstrated mental toughness or an ability to handle adversity? This isn't a passive aggressive attempt to knock Jones, but I just don't see how these specific qualities you address point to Jones.

That was very funny. Well done.
So true. He's had a lot of opportunity to take the bait out there - because his playing conditions have been a joke - yet he has shown great poise and class.
I said this yesterday - trading for Rosen would be the steal of THIS year's draft...
We just need Andre Krimm protecting his weak side

Exactly, and he wasn't handling the press well at the senior bowl when addressing criticism. Also, three a tantrum after a bad practice at the Senior bowl.
That's one part where Eli shines even up to now. The idgaf attitude of what the press says about him, as thick-skinned as you will find.

Agreed. The guy got a hot tub in his apartment his freshman year of college and has a picture on instagram with a girl in it, and he's a problem? It basically says he was wealthy enough to get a hot tub in his apartment (and by the way, he's certainly wealthy enough for that now), and wasn't mature enough at 18 to realize he shouldn't have posted that picture. Mayfield was arrested for public intoxication and resisting arrest, and everyone thinks he's amazing. Mayfield threw Hue Jackson completely under the bus last year, and Rosen is the "coach killer"? What's Mayfield then? What about Darnold? Is he a coach killer too?
That said, I feel like the Giants have totally bought into the belief that Rosen wouldn't handle NY well and I'm resigned to the fact/belief that they won't trade for him even at 37.
So tell my why these criteria don’t also apply to Haskins?

the difference is the girl with Eli would've been topless in that wading pool because he's a damn winner! #NoRosen2019
Probably don't want to go poking that bear.
Pretty funny, we hear the same thing....but have totally different thoughts.
Same here
this is a QB that had a large drinking problem that culminated in a high profile locker room incident in which he called the n word to a teammate.
yes it is NYC but this is one of 32 people in the US hired for a job ..

I thought the same thing, and I like Rosen. If they take a QB, this leads me to believe it will be Jones. He clearly fits that profile.
