so much for Jones definitely being out.

Victor in CT : 12/1/2021 3:44 pm
he practiced today and is expected to practice tomorrow and Friday. Looks like there's a good chance he does play.


Daniel Jones surprisingly practices amid neck injury confusion - ( New Window )

At zero touchdowns the BBI excuse accountants will adjust it to 4. 2 TDs for the OL, 1 for the neck and 1 TD for generic lingering Jason Garrett excuse. Some possibilities:

1. Jason Garrett made him learn a bad playbook
2. He has to "adjust" to Kitchens playbook
3. Him and Jason Garrett spent so many hours together working hard on his game that it's tough to deal with the emotional loss
4. Jason Garrett made him think too conservatively, he has to learn to open up his game again

Just like our shoulda wins, DJ leads the league in coulda TDs!

You won’t even give the kid kudos for being a tough competitor. You know when you are 100 % of the time on one side of an issue, never being able to see anything positive, you kind of lose credibility.

not true. I praised him when he played a great game against New Orleans. I said it was an exciting performance. I even started a thread about his PFF score that week.

And I'm not seeing what's bothering you about the straight fact that he is playing for a life-altering, heck a family-altering, contract. A contract that will set up Jones' for generations. Why can't that be mentioned?

The dude is playing to get a $90M contract. Fuck yea he's going to try to be out there. These last 6 games may be the last chance he has to prove he deserves that kind of money, for the rest of his career. Why can't this be said?

Once again the truth is not welcome around here. The truth is a casualty. People's feelings are too fucking fragile for the truth.

It's professional football. I'm not particularly anti-jones, but its a sport full of tough people. I dont enjoy that we throw roses at any one guy for being tough. Linemen are tough. Anyone care that Billy Price is tough enough to fight another 300 pound man for 4 quarters?

Got a family member entering month 4 of ‘ a minor’ neck injury, should be better in 2 weeks. You just don’t know the extent until there’s a sign of progress.
Maybe extensive therapy and some muscle relaxers got it manageable.
Or the ready for Sunday is a deflection.

I wouldn’t see the point in him practicing and being out there if he had no realistic chance to play or his neck was hurting him even slightly.

Amazingly he hit his first 2 jumpshots. The crowd was going nuts and the Lakers were mentally psyched out. Thats all he scored, those 4 pts, but his presence on the court changed the game completely (even though he played only 27 minutes).

I read a quote from one of the Lakers, I forget who, who said years later than when Reed limped out of the locker room all the Lakers just stopped and watched, and the crowd went crazy. he said he thought the Lakers lost the game right there. They just never got it in. Remember they crushed the Knicks in game 6 without Reed. Chamberlain went wild.
Feels like gamesmanship to me

I remember last year when the Giants improved to 4-7 in a game Jones was injured. McCoy does just enough, and the Giants run all over Seattle the next week.

The next week, instead of giving Jones another week to heal up, he goes out and gets his ass royally kicked by AZ.

The kicker, in the offseason Judge goes on about how tough Jones is, and how he should have been on IR. That always kind of felt ridiculous to brag about.

I hope Judge learned something.
I really hope the Doctors checked his neck to make sure it

is structurally sound and nothing damaged before he went and practiced today. Ask Justin Tuck about neck issues.
