Bruce Arians says he took the delay penalty on purpose in final minute, thinking Matt Gay was better from a longer distance.

I'm f****** I have completely lost my s*** I don't know where my s*** is I don't know if it's ever coming back fuk fuk fuk fuk fuk. Holy Ho Lee fuk and a few more bucks and that's still not enough fucks
Yeah, me too :) Once in a while you get shown the light?
brings a happy tear to my eyes Eli - ( New Window )
That pic is adorable and heart warming. Really happy for Daniel and the whole team. That was a great debut. The way Daniel’s hugging Eli, it looks like my golden retriever 😄
The Giants won in improbable fashion. With their best player side lined. Jones made an enormous difference. Just fantastic. Negatives will be held till tomorrow.
I know it was said before, but I'm very pleased about Slayton - both Â
the reception and the downfield block to free up Engram. He's missed a lot of training camp and the first two weeks. Yet he made two big plays on his first nfl game.
The win, was the one throw to Slayton, there are few qbs in this league who can make that throw when you consider all of the elements. The accuracy, the arm strength, the mobility, the ability to continue to read the defense as the play broke down.
I also took away how important a qb is to the modern NFl game and can change a game in an instant. Something a lot of us have been saying for a couple of seasons.
Hope Barkley is ok in the long run, and he comes back 100% without any lingering effects.

There best player was on the field and led the drive. It’s what qbs do for a team. Hope he keeps it up and continues to improve.
and particularly a very good pass defense, is what gives me a lot of hope for the future. Having a great pre-season against the opposing teams' 2nd/3rd/4th stringers is one thing, but this was the real deal today, and Jones went out there with the 1s (but Barkley out in the 2nd half) and executed beautifully. Making the big plays when he needed to. 4th and 5 and he runs it in for the game-winning TD? What a start!
with Barkley going out and the Bucs already bringing constant pressure, I thought it would be too much for Jones to overcome. He came through with flying colors.
If only the defense weren't such a steaming pile. Would really have sucked to see all that go down only to have the Bucs kick a last second FG to win it.
He’s supposed to be able to cover his man 1:1. If he can’t do that on Mike Evans he shouldn’t be playing.
I hope Jenkins gets traded for a draft pick after today.
JJ is 5'10" Mike Evans is 6'5". No corner is expected to cover that over a full route without safety help up top. Geez, stop the nonsense.
You guys dumping on JackRabbit need to get a life or a dose of reality. Evans had 1,500 yards last year against the best the NFL has to offer. What Evans did in this game was completely expected considering the time he had. Honestly, where was the safety help up top that you would expect to see on a receiver like Evans????
I couldn't be happier for him, and the Giants and Gettleman, and happier to have been dead wrong about his arm strength.
He prefers to use touch obviously, but he can sling it too, and off platform.
He can also run a bit, can't he? He's a superior level athlete, at the same time he has Eli's "cool as the other side of the pillow" character under pressure.
This young man is all business, and a harbinger of a bright future for the Giants.

Here’s hoping he becomes a (badly needed) team leader and a go-to target for the young QB.
So many here have been calling him JAG. SS played a helluva game today.
Sterling Shepard is is not JAG. It's annoying to see people who don't understand football say that. Shepard plays lights out when he is on the field no matter what. Pay attention to his downfield blocking when the play isn't even going his way. You have to respect him when he's on the field. BTW, he wouldn't still be here if the Giants could find a better slot receiver.
I think you folks are going to be very surprised at the Daniel Jones to Golden Tate/Sterling Sharp connection. DJ hits receivers in stride. Golden Tate and Sterling Shepard in stride are ankle breakers. This is going to be fun.
He’s supposed to be able to cover his man 1:1. If he can’t do that on Mike Evans he shouldn’t be playing.
That's a ridiculous thing to say for an all pro WR coming off a 1500 yard season. He's a complete mismatch for any corner in the league.
He did nothing in his first two games. Until today.
Jenkins was beaten like a drum all day long. And he counts for $14.5 million on the cap.
Play Ballentine next week.
It's still a ridiculous thing to say, let's just move on. 6'5 225 pound WRs are not easy covers. Suggesting he shouldn't be playing is silly. And after halftime he was held to 1-2 catches. The issue is coaches were not doing their jobs fast enough.
Bethea was supposed to help on the last play but he ran forward and to the middle of the field to cover NOBODY. Then he was too late coming over.
Tampa misses a 34-yard gimme and suddenly Daniel Jones is the original Miss Jesus. That kick is made (like it should have been) and everyone goes flaccid.
My takeaway: not sure about DJ but Sterling Shepard is for real.

The Bucs make the FG and people would still be very hyped on Jones. Brought his team back from an 18-point deficit with a ton of pressure in his face and without Barkley and got what was the go-ahead score in final couple minutes. In his NFL career start. Not his fault at all if they lost that game.

I’m guessing you didn’t watch the game, probably saw the box score and the highlight of the missed kick
Jones' first career start was more than just impressive, it was historic: His 34.2 fantasy points were the second-most in history by any quarterback making his first start in the NFL.
I expect that, in a few games, Slayton will work his way up to be the Â

If the kick is made, Jones had an incredible game and we're screaming at the defense again.
Even though he’s technically a TE. 23 receptions, 277 yards and 2 TDs in the early going. He looks far more confident than in the first 2 years where he was hit or miss and had trouble holding onto the ball
What's still bothering me,even after savoring this win(I'm so glad I DVRed it,going back to watch it today) was Shurmur's clock management.Taking timeouts at 3:30 & 3:24 was way too early,especially w/the 2:00 minute mark serving as timeout 3. Now,no one is talking about it today because we won,but he left 1:16 on the clock,enough for the Bucs to mount a drive for a FG try(which they did) & only a Wide Right miss allowed us to celebrate not commiserate. A win is a win but, hopefully,in the future,his clock management will improve!

Yes because this is what fans do. Enjoy the win, it’s fun.

Some people owe Daniel Jones an apology - # 6 - hell yes!

You think Ballentine would have played better against Evans today?
CB from a small school hool usually needs some seasoning.
Wrong score but pretty good call!! Way to go DJ!!!
Rookies all chipped in!
He was pretty awful, especially in the first half.
But, again, I don't think people, even Bob Papa at times, understand the physical overmatch he is.
DJ looks like the real deal. I expect some growing pains but it's clear he's a player. It's going to be fun watching him.
Yeah, me too :) Once in a while you get shown the light?
Eli - ( New Window )
Thanks....
I am not kidding when I say that I could have covered Evans today and yielded the same results as Jenkins.

All is good.
agree
