IMO put a good team around him and we will win some games.

No more, no less.
No turnovers was key

Using Stats as a knock on him so so incredibly dumb on a day like today.

He had several runs that kept the offense moving, he had a 15 yard catch that was great, and in the 4th Quarter they were mostly just running the ball to eat clock . They were also playing without their 4 top guys in Toney, Golladay, Shepard, and Barkley.

He did everything he needed and possibly could do to win the game today

He was without his LT, LG, C, Golladay, Barkley, Toney, and Shepard but yea he should have thrown for 500 yards and 5 TD's with the dynamic receiving corps of Slayton, Pettis, Ross, Sills, and the amazing Collin Johnson.
He played better than Lamar Jackson

And how many teams with the injuries the Giants have win? Our best weapon was Darius Slayton. Slayton is a mediocre #2, and an excellent #3. He had no one this game. The Panthers didn't not show up, they're just not very good.

the Saints. He passed for, what I forget, oh yeah 403 YARDS! He played exactly how he had to today, with the cast around him and if he could have stepped into that long throw to Slayton, he would have had 2 TDs and 250 yards passing.
No one can say how good he can be. There are a bunch of problems on this team. They have time to make a final decision on him. Work on the other issues.

Did you actually watch that game? His TD passes one was a 10 yard pass to Chase who Chase broke a few tackles to go 80 yards. Nothing special by Burrow. The first uzumoh Td was a punt throw that he got under made a defender miss and took off to the end zone. How many TDs have the Giants WRs taken in the end zone this year? More than just looking at a box score.

Had a stud to throw the ball two and a few other really good receivers if you know what you are talking about. Who does Jones have? He had to throw slants all day cause there was no time to run routes or he had to throw on the run with rollouts. Coaches finally did a good job and recognized this.

And the first string line had question marks.

Congrats your comments keep getting dumber and dumber and it was hard to top them from being so dumb from the start. Just wow. The Panthers suck!!!! We're lucky that they suck and played a shitty game away from home????

Let me dumb it down for you. Shitty teams tend to play shitty especially away from home. It's not "lucky" they suck.

This is a game to build on — he played well as he did against New Orleans.

My recommendation to fellow Jones fans is to be happy he did well and not spend so much energy on I told you so’s.

1) He’s got a long way to go 2) It makes you look like a weenie.
I have to admit I was wrong this week.  
FStubbs : 10/24/2021 6:51 pm : link
I had him as a Kent Graham level QB but Kent Graham obviously loses the ball game today.

I'm still not sure what we have in Jones and I'm skeptical, but at least he took a big step forward today.

I think the satisfaction of being a fan is based on being able to complain after the losses, and revel after the wins.

I think the lowest form of debate and interaction is putting words in anonymous people’s mouths, and then running head first into the straw men. That’s a dangerous proposition — often times right behind that straw man is a decent sized cliff.

I think excusing one's behavior and dismissing them vs/ while tearing into another's behavior just because it doesn't support the narrative of the excuser is about as low as one can get - for those that do that.

Stop being obtuse. How about commenting on my question?

To me, the question is practically settled. The Giants need to start looking for another QB and it isn’t because Jones sucks, it’s because he is NOT a great player.
