Jones will keep me engaged but I’m officially checked out. Lose out. Who cares anymore?

That argument applies when your head coach is John Harbaugh. It does not apply when your head coach is Pat Shurmur.

We won the Tampa game by accident when they missed a chip shot FG at the end. This is really a 1-8 team.
Honest to God, I'm not upset.  
Mr. Bungle : 11/4/2019 11:15 pm : link
The worse this gets, the better the chances this coaching staff gets canned. That's a good thing.

Shurmur and his clown staff MUST GO. And if they pull miracle wins out of their asses, that might convince dopey Mara to keep them.

Gettleman can go, too, as far as I'm concerned. He drafts better than Reeseand Ross, but otherwise, he's replaceable crap, too.

Learned:

Did NOT Learn:

- Red zone play design
- Use of a mobile QB
- Creative play design anywhere on the field

Agree💯 Not enough is being made of the obvious mistakes by Gettleman. Like, hiring Pat Schurmur. There’s plenty of other dumb moves including the absolutely inexplicable trade for Williams. Just a terrible GM.
I thought we would get a good play caller at least  
Giantimistic : 11/4/2019 11:36 pm : link
I didn’t know how Shurmur would be as a Head Coach but I was at least certain that he would be a great play caller. I thought he knew how to get the ball in to talented hands of his best players.

I was so very wrong about that.
You know who really showed up was our new DT jermaine Williams  
mikeinbloomfield : 11/4/2019 11:37 pm : link
I heard his name one, possibly two times. I’m sure Gettleman’s working the phones trying to trade a number 1 for a backup tight end.
Let's get real.  
since1925 : 11/4/2019 11:37 pm : link
We waved the white flag on the season when we started Jones. That makes it hard to evaluate what we really have. Teams are playing eight in the box. So our run blocking looks bad. He holds the ball too long, that means sacks. He fumbles like crazy. That put the defense in bad spots. He isn't the only problem but he makes it hard to see what the problems really are.

So please relax. This is going to last a while. Let's just hope he is learning and current mess (much of his making) will have a big payout.

This  
AcidTest : 11/4/2019 11:38 pm : link
team has so many problems that never seem to be corrected, even partially. Bad OL, receivers who can't separate, no pass rush, LBs and safeties that are slow and take bad angles, and blown coverages.

But the biggest problem is the OL. We can't block anyone. Shurmur was right. "If you can't block them, nothing works."
competed against a better team  
bc4life : 11/4/2019 11:38 pm : link
and made some costly mistakes.

first take, was the run game by Dallas basically due to our weak LB corps?

no pass rush - Dak is a decent QB. BUt if you don't sack, hit, or knock a QB down - you're probably not going to win

Your takeaway is that Jones is the big problem? Seriously?
The roster is just as awful as the coaching staff  
jcn56 : 11/4/2019 11:41 pm : link
Gettleman decided to blow it up and start from scratch, something that a competent FO shouldn't have to do with the parity forced attrition/turnover of the NFL, and the players he's brought in via FA and the draft are every bit as bad if not worse than what he found.

The Cowboys opened up the game trying to give it away, and the Giants refused to take it.

i thought at the beginning of the season it was odd playing a man corner in zone all the time. Kid was really good at Georgia . I think his confidence was shot. They really need to simplify this D.

Crispino : 11/4/2019 11:48 pm : link
But I’m really done as a fan of this team for the foreseeable future. The roster hasn’t gotten any better in a decade, the coaching staff and front office are a mess, the majority of the players clearly don’t care. I lived through the really lean times with this team. We are there again. Time for somebody to fly a banner over the stadium again. Embarrass the owners into getting a credible football person to run the organization. The Maras and Tisches can’t do it.

They’ve lost me and countless others at this point. I used to live and die with every game, but not anymore. I look for excuses to find something better to do because the outcome of these games is a foregone conclusion.

I had season tickets for over thirty years, gave them up when they double dipped on the PSL’s, and now I don’t regret it one bit. Show us some semblance of caring and fire this coaching staff and some veterans like Jenkins, who cares less than I do. Do it tomorrow. Show some balls for once. I don’t want to hear “ We’ll assess the coaching situation after the season.”

Fire everyone, lose out and start the rebuild again with the number one or two pick. Please.

Bettcher is clearly invested in Baker; his college record and then having traded up.
Given that, his dilemma now that the season is lost is whether to let him play through his rookie faults (as Arcosi said "never give up on talent") or take him off the starting team (for Beal to see what he has there)?
Ballentine showed real promise.

Offensively to throw Jones to the wolves vs. the Vikings, Patriots & again vs. the Cowboys D is unacceptable.

Defensively do they ever make a tackle without letting the ballcarrier go an extra 3/4/5 yards? It's maddening. When it's not a missed tackle, it's a blown coverage or a dumb penalty. A complete failure.

Even the special teams are breaking down with the kicking game a mess.

lax counsel : 11/5/2019 12:02 am : link
How a cogent argument can be made that DG is doing a good job. I get that there wasn’t a lot of talent on the roster when he took over, but all he’s done is replace it with at best the same talent, but more realistically worse talent. That cannot be an excuse.

They still basically need an entire o line, wrs, and an entire defense. There is a large talent deficiency. I’m not even sure how you accurately judge Jones off this season. All said and done he’s doing a pretty decent job with what he has surrounding him.

I just don’t see how you give DG another year and allow him to spend all of this free agent money. He just hasn’t shown that he can accurately judge talent.
DeAndre Baker really not impressing  
Dave in PA : 11/5/2019 12:02 am : link
Kid does not look like a first round talent so far. He makes big mistakes then starts celebrating and getting in Elliott’s face after shoving him OOB at the end of the guy, getting all cocky. Dude blew a massive assignment for a back breaking game ending TD to Cooper. Shit the fuck up and play better or hopefully get sat on the bench

Down 5, 3rd and 12 for Dallas. Giants have legit opportunity to get ball back done 1 score.

It was a place a lot of fans did not think could happen judging by the thread this afternoon about the game.

But a defense who continues to make ridiculous mistakes denied us the opportunity for an exciting ending.

Hard to understand how everyone but 1 player can be playing man while he plays zone.

I agree with much of the criticism but a new GM is a new rebuild. Let’s let DG finish what he started.

Last years draft is looking more average but this years is looking good.

Jones is s turnover machine. No team is winning with that. You just hope he gets better with ball security and learns to get rid of the ball when nothing is there. But the rest of his game is good.

So DG gets one more year at a minimum. Shuur should be fired. He is just not HC material

Agreed. Shurmur needs to be fired, and Gettleman gets one more chance to hire a proper head coach.

His ability to restock the team has been pretty good through the draft. I honestly think these second year struggles for his first class have more to do with the shit coaching than talent regressing to the mean.

Baker is a moron. Grabs Coopers jersey for no reason right in front of the ref. Had no effect on the play but they are going to call a pulled jersey. Then he is playing zone in man coverage,

He makes Eli Apple look like a genius

You assume a new GM would come in and pull a Gettleman and get rid of everyone. Not necessarily the case; a new GM would do a thorough evaluation and keep the players that can play. A new GM brings a new set of eyes and fresh perspective. The Giants need that.

dont think this defense is bad if he started the year with ballentine on the outside and love starting free safety. Let Baker play the slot. I think both those guys are smart based on their college play and would have made more plays than Haley and Bethea.

Bettchers scheme really needs top flight linebackers to work and Ogletree was an awful trade.

No faith in the offense at all. Engram never shows up big in games when it matters. Tate is old.

(ok aside from our defense in general, and Alec Ogletree in particular) is how utterly pedestrian Dallas looked. They are NOT a very good team really, and Prescott is not a very good QB. G-d I pray Jones pays Dak at a top 5 QB rate!

As for the Giants, I like the guys Gettleman has drafted pretty much. He hasn't done as well with his FA signings, obviously, but Markus Golden is IMO a keeper.

Jones will get there I think.

yes, Ballentine and Love will be good players. Compared to Haley who should be in the xfl and Bethea should have retired 5 years ago.

He'll not be a starter for long unless he does. Aside from some good mobility (which is largely offset by poor pocket awareness and absolute shit tier ball security) and accuracy I'm not sure I see much. He's slow at processing, has a horrible habit of standing still in the pocket patting the ball with no peripheral vision

But the ball security is killer. He's turning the ball over at an historic rate.

He's throwing balls away when nothing is there. He's getting the ball out faster and under extreme pressure. The guy really has no time in the pocket. The INT last night was really just a hail mary with seconds waning and he's just taking a shot there. The fumble was worse but still forgivable and in my opinion not necessarily indicative of a major flaw that cannot be fixed. The strip sacks are the real concern and he has cleaned that up as of late.
