Is what? We know the O-line sucks. I’m struggling because I think he is better than what he has shown. It’s hard to play at a high level when your line gets pushed into your face on every play. Do we draft another QB? Do we trade our first round picks for Watson or Wilson? Do we stick with DJ and draft two O-linemen?

Why speak in an absolute? How do you know this? There very well might be a GM from the outside, what if Jones continues to play like he did last week? He just automatically gets next year?
I wouldn’t be so sure.
Sean, most every post on this thread is stated-as an absolute
Just my opinion, that the odds favor him being the quarterback next season
I agree he's probably the quarterback next season. The odds also favor Jones being a lousy quarterback again next season too.

We ll see.
Well my friend unfortunately for you the people who will be making the decision on Jones don t agree the dye has been cast.
They re probably not as knowledgeable as you regarding whether his abilities warrant him coming back next season, but they nevertheless get to make the decision.
I haven’t given up on Jones, I want it to work because that would be best for the team, you call it gloating, 👌
The reality is that he stinks.
-Kyler Murray in year 3 has Arizona competing for the NFC
-Josh Allen in year 3 reached the AFC title game
-Baker Mayfield in year 3 reached the AFC divisional game
-Lamar Jackson won a MVP and regularly has the Ravens contending
-Justin Herbert in year 2 has the Chargers in the playoff race
-Joe Burrow has the Bengals of all teams and a shitty OL competing
Rosen was a bust and the Cardinals moved on. The Jets moved off of Darnold. There are already rumblings the Dolphins want to move off of Tua.
It is year 3 and the Giants aren’t competing with Jones. His record as a starter is 11-24 as a starter, take out WFT and it is 7-23.
What am I missing? Someone please make it make sense. Please. Jones is a nice kid and likable player. I really do admire his work ethic and his toughness, but it’s over. The whole point of drafting Jones was because of his high floor and the fact he was coached up in college, it has not mattered. It’s over.
The reality is that he stinks.
You can’t separate opinion from fact.

I can't? Hilarious.
Needs to really excel with freddie kitchens in order to enter the next offseason without looking over his shoulder and odds of that are very low.
Colt McCoy was the QB for the best Giants win from 2017-present.
Don't you guys ever grasp the argumentation that even comparing Jones to McCoy in the first place and in 2021 isn't a good look for Jones?
Yeah. Jones is supposed to be miles better than McCoy. I was hoping this would be a given when the Giants picked him at 6 overall.

Let me help you out.
Fact Jones is quarterback of the Giants
Fact: Giants have not been successful with him as quarterback
Fact: Offense has not been effective with him as quarterback
He will never be good enough to win with. ..... Opinion
Unless you know something the rest of us don’t, it appears even the Giants haven’t determined the answer to the future of Jones as their quarterback
The reality is that he stinks.
Would you sign up for this scenario: Giants run the table and win the division and Jones gets a. second contract? B. 5th year option picked up. C. 5th year option and gettlemen doesn’t get fired D. You’d rather the giants let se every game for the rest and f the year and get blown out in most times of them?

This is barely readable but I think I get the point.
The Giants aren't going to win the division. That's real life.
You guys act like the critics are responsible for the Giants losing. We aren't. They suck, and we're observing why the suck and the likelihood that they are going to continue to suck as long as they keep doing things the way they do.
We all want them to compete for titles. They aren't going to do it with a backup level quarterback leading the way. It's just not going to happen.
I do have a problem with anyone presenting their opinion as an undisputed fact. Either way.
I listen to tons of podcasts. I watch all 22 when I can. I rewatch games. I’m still an amateur.
The “experts” have wide ranging opinions on the qb. I don’t accept any of them as fact either. There is no fact. There is a continuous collection of information until a decision is made by the organization.
Gettlemen is dead man walking. Whoever is next will have a short time to prove they deserve the job. If they think the qb is a hindrance to their job security he will be gone. It’s really that simple
I hope Jones turns things around, for himself and the team. I rooted for Jeff Hostetler in 1991 and Dave Brown in 1994, with Phil Simms still very much in mind. Similarly, I'm sure even Eli's most loyal fans are rooting for Jones. Like Hoss, the kid can do things his gunslinging predecessor couldn't, especially with his feet. Even thirty years ago, though, it was hard to win with a quarterback who couldn't throw into tight windows and score TDs. It's nearly impossible today. If Daniel Jones doesn't start doing those things soon, he'll join Mitch Trubisky (and many others) among backups hoping for a second chance that might never come.
It’s over.
I get your point about quarterbacks needing to achieve some measure of success early, but the sample of good QBs who have entered the NFL over the past 15 years might be too small for a meaningful precedent. I think Jones has to be judged on his own merits.
Other posters have pointed out that Brees and maybe Roethlisberger posted some anemic results their first three seasons, but again before the current era.
The best counter argument to my point I think is Kirk Cousins. It’s possible although not at all certain that Jones can reach Cousins level. I grant that point.
