Suggested he wasnt concussed and just got the wind knocked out of him last week.
I was suggesting this in other threads as everyone was disappointed he was playing under the conditions. Its was more or less bad optics that led him to leaving the field and going through NFL protocol (unless he lied). Yet, Most likely explains why we saw designed sneaks as well today.
Id rather say this when its not an opportune time to say it - I love Daniel Jones. Hes a tough SOB and glad hes our QB. Hope we get healthy with him. He did not want to come out of the game today even considering the unfortunate circumstances. This guy has some balls/audacity.
toughness alone is meaningless. It's a league with magicians at the QB position. We can't bring the tough guy into a fight like that.
However, I'd take a really talented QB over him anyway. One that can throw on the run (off platform), scramble and then throw someone open instead of running and risking further injuries.
Tough is good. Talent is better in today's game.
Not sure how it helps him to lead us on believing he begged out of the Dallas game because he got the wind knocked out of him, though.
85% of Giants fans wanted Eli gone at this point in his career. I was at the minnesota game in 07
Get Toney, Barkley, Golladay and Thomas healthy and let's see what the offense can do.
When they were all on the field in NO the offense looked pretty good.

All of the players healthy at this point in the season may never happen. He needs to be evaluated based on what is happening in real time. Not what might have been.

because he's such a likable player. People liked Eli because was tough, but so is Jones. I just wish he was more successful.

Still bringing this up, huh?
I'll forget Jones a month after he's gone to another team - just like every other player on this pathetic roster.

And now Jones' trajectory is set? I suppose anything is possible maybe?...
Nah.

I get the comps, but DJ is his own player. We can't expect him to do what Eli did. He has to plot his own path. And while the history lesson of not giving up too early has some merit, but you can argue that today's NFL is vastly different from '07; especially when it comes to the progression of franchise QBs.
This will come off as a defend jones post and it truly isn’t it’s more damning on DG and Garret than anything. We lose Thomas and the offense totally collapses. The garbage that he puts out there on the field is pathetic. He should be let go tomorrow and a new GM should be in place. How the staff continually plays Rudolph over smith is another insane move that is unconscionable.

You’re kidding me right? Did you see that team out there today? His best wr was Evan engram. He took chances and got his ass kicked.
I can’t take this place anymore with the stupid fucking agendas and how some of you just need to be right all the time.

So he was perfectly healthy today and did that?

He threw the ball directly to the defender he was looking at TWICE.
He was examined, per protocol, on the sideline and removed from the game. You don't get removed and then placed in concussion protocol for the wind being knocked out of you.

Thank you. You don’t get placed in the protocol bc you had the wind knocked out of you. What a ridiculous suggestion.

In the midst of your turbulent mood disorder you must have me confounded with some other guy. I like Daniel Jones.
I don’t think he just had his wind knocked out. That guy looked off today.

Yah - listen to the full answer ….he said he was not concussed in a way that doesn’t jeopardize himself or the league policy.
Love Eli Manning, but lol, sometimes he went down almost as comically as his brother.......but hey, there's a reason he was never hurt.
