Giants coach Joe Judge said most other NFL players would have missed more than only two games. “Look, Daniel is the last guy that’s going to use anything as an excuse,” Judge, who rarely talks about injuries, told The Michael Kay Show on Monday. What I would say about the injury last year is it was much more serious than maybe people thought on the outside. I would say probably 90 percent of players in the league who would have had that injury, including quarterbacks, would have been on IR for the remainder of the year. That’s just the reality of it. It was much more severe than maybe he allowed people to know or the information that was put out there, and we’re going to protect our players by not disclosing everything about their injuries to be honest with you. He fought through a lot of things. He earned a lot of people’s respect.” |
And yeah, DJ is a tough son of a bitch, and this makes me feel better about his performance last year. I hope he proves he's a franchise guy, but for some reason, my primary takeaway here is about Judge.
Judge is a fucking LEADER. So happy he's our coach. He has that innate understanding of when to hold people accountable, and when to stick up for his guys
Offensive Line ( and it has been very "offensive") and on the receiving corps (ps silent).
Give the guy a chance to prove himself under normal conditions and with a decent OL and good receivers.
As for Joe Judge, I think he may make it. Time will tell.

It's not ignoring, it's that we believe a QB can be evaluated without perfect conditions.
On topic: on one hand DJ is certainly one tough SOB, however if you want DJ to be the QB for the next 10 years I'd find this information scary. The last thing you should want is your QB pushing through the kind of injury that could lead to worse injuries.
As Aaron Judge said it's better to miss 1 game than to miss 1 month..
This. In a way, Hassan Reddick's sack bonanza (and Andrew Thomas' terrible stats as a result) really need an asterisk because Jones was a sitting duck back there. He couldn't/wouldn't move & had no chance. Giants should have never tried to even play him in that game.
Powerful remarks from Judge. Several posters will be noticeably absent from this thread.

Have a feeling a large number of those guys are the ones who never liked the pick in the first place and are still thinking about Josh Allen and what could have been. Subset of those guys could be those still mad at Gettleman choosing Barkley #2 overall, instead of choosing Eli’s successor. Might be wrong about that, but I’m guessing that’s where the some of that sentiment originates.
We had people pointing out the 12 sacks in two games and just completely gloss over his injuries. Ridiculous, it’s the type of crap you hear on ESPN so they can argue, not fans of the team looking at things objectively and with reason.
But that doesn’t mean
He will automatically be a good QB.

towards the end of that Cardinals game. Glad he’s our QB. Dude is one tough son of a bitch, Here’s to a fully healthy season in 2021

Anyone with two eyes could come to that conclusion, but people see what they want to see I guess.

Why do you think that? Which posters?
I really hope Jones puts it all together. He’s very easy to root for.
Fuck yeah. That’s the shit that doesn’t show up on the stat sheet.
GT vs. ryanmkeane, round 67589597.
When things break down around you, do you panic or do you naturally make the right decision. Nobody's perfect, but some guys are clutch and some aren't.
Hoping he breaks out this year, but trying to stay realistic.
Self awareness buddy
Cool. So you monitor Daniel Jones threads. Also, I didn't specifically have you in mind but the fact this thread is an hour old and has like 20 replies proves my point. Can you imagine if Judge said something to the opposite effect? Like if he felt Jones sat out injuries that were less severe? This thread would be a party by now.
1. He is a hard worker
2. He’s got guts
Hope his hard work pays off for him, the team, and us.
Lotta of quarterbacks are tough...you kind of have to be to make it to the NFL. Dave Brown was tough too.
or what?
I think Jones had a pretty poor year even throwing out the BAL/AZ games. I'd rather hear about what Jones does well on the field in terms of processing/throws than toughness and respect.
or what?
I hope so. I think Judge was talking about his early return from the hammy.
Its incredible....the self proclaimed oracle of BBI has spoken....again....about the same opinion everybody know he has.
I think us getting a second 1st next year is hedging our bets about DJ long term going forward. Sam Howell anybody?

Actions speak louder than words, definitely.

3. Injury Prone

I dunno, as of last week I remember reading a Terps conspiracy that Judge secretly doesn't like Jones and wants to be rid of him. I would say Judge has a weird way of of trying to hid his true feelings.

But it’s interesting to hear Judge confirm it. We know two things about Jones for certain at this point, indisputably:
1. He is a hard worker
2. He’s got guts
Hope his hard work pays off for him, the team, and us.
3. Injury Prone
Cool.
Judge didn’t have to say any of that.
Judge didn’t have to say any of that.
He’s been in the league two years and got hurt both years. It’s a factual statement until he proves me wrong and stays healthy. Has nothing to do with “rooting against him.”
What does that matter?

What does that matter?
Well it matters because I want to know who to talk to on here and who to ignore. I appreciate what Jones brings to the table, his attitude, and his work ethic. I’m rooting for him and if you and others are not, then okay. If Jones is good the Giants are good and I appreciate his attitude. He’s doing the work and you’re not so I’m going to root for him.
If you’re rooting against Jones, you’re rooting against the Giants. Point blank.
If this team is as talented as the organization is says it is, then they shouldn’t have any problem winning the division this year. Time for results.
I want the Giants to find the path to winning football. We all do. It doesn't have to be with any specific player on the roster, and it doesn't make anyone a better fan if they root for Jones to be the QB.
We hear this shit every year with underperforming players. Next there will be a fluff piece on Thomas playing through two broken ankles last year.
That said, I had to laugh when GT said he would have drafted Herbert last year @ 4 after DJ's rookie season. That was LOL to me. And again, I respect GT opinions but I thought he was trolling @ that point.
Somehow simultaneously Judge is responsible for the turnaround in personnel decisions both in FA and the draft, but yet he doesn't get the QB he wants without having to give up any capital (and would have fetched at least a couple 2nds for DJ considering what Darnold just got). You don't think Bruce Arians would have taken that offer? He didn't do that because he saw exactly what I saw last year. A progressing QB, that worked on his issues over the summer, started slow fixing them, and progressively got better until his injuries derailed him.

We know what you want. You think it’s not clear? This thread is about a kid stepping into a bigass situation and toughing it out to try and earn the respect of his teammates, coaches, and fans.

Thomas' game improved considerably as the season progressed.
Do you remember watching Simms play his first I don’t know…7 seasons?
