QB Daniel Jones

May 19, 2022

Q. What was your reaction to the team not picking up the fifth-year option?

DANIEL JONES: Yeah, you know, that was certainly out of my control, out of my hands, and that's the business part of it. I understand that.

My job is to prepare to play as well as I can, help the team win games, and that's certainly what I'm focused on.

Q. Was it disappointing?

DANIEL JONES: You know, just kind of is what it is. You're focused on preparing to play as well as you can, and that's my goal. That's what my focus is on.

Q. Do you think about your future? Now that you know, this is going to be the last year, how do you sort of look at that moving into this year now?

DANIEL JONES: I think it's natural to think about a little bit, but I think you're better off focusing on what you're doing now and preparing as well as you can now. So taking advantage of every day to prepare. We're in an important part of the off-season right now, starting up our OTA practices.

They're valuable opportunities you can't afford to miss out on, so that's certainly what I'm focused on and working on.

Q. What does that mean to you? What do you have to do this year to prove you're the franchise QB and get the next contract?

DANIEL JONES: You know, I don't think that's really the mindset or the focus. I think it's more about winning games and knowing that if we win games and we have a good season, then that should take care of a lot of things for everyone.

That's the focus I think we have as a group, as a team throughout the locker room, coaching staff. I think it's to play well and win games. That's what it's about. Everything we do is about that goal, pushing to that, and that's certainly my focus.

Q. What's your confidence level and why do you have the confidence that this will be the year that you put it all together and be consistent?

DANIEL JONES: Yeah, I'm certainly confident in myself. I'm confident in the team we have and the coaches and the system.

I think we're all learning it, and we're improving daily with it. There's a lot of reasons to be confident, I think, when you look at all those pieces. We've got to focus on what we're doing now. We can't focus on results and the season. That's a long way away.

We're focused on preparing now, practicing well, improving every day and making progress.

Q. Daniel, the head coach was hired to be the coach of the team, but he's a coach who's an offensive guy and he works with quarterbacks. What do you think Brian Daboll and this offense and Mike Kafka can do to help you as a quarterback that you have not maybe had before?

DANIEL JONES: They both bring a ton of ideas, new ideas from different systems, systems that have had a lot of success, had quarterbacks with a lot of success.

I think all those ideas here, new thoughts here, new concepts, new plays, I think all that stuff, but yeah, I think so just trying to pick up those little things here and there and listening to some of their philosophy on playing the position, playing offense, looking for opportunities to make plays at times when they aren't there and to protect the ball.

I think all those conversations, just learning from their experience and what they've been around, the success that they've had.

Q. It's new; anybody that came in would have been new. But it's new and improved. Does this seem new and improved from what you can tell as far as success for a quarterback?

DANIEL JONES: Yeah, I don't know. I think you get into trouble comparing different situations. I think it's different, and they're different ideas. Anything would be -- any new situation is different.

I don't think it's very productive to compare necessarily, but just trying to learn as much as I can from different ways of looking at it.

Q. Dabs was saying that his message to you is throw practice interceptions, throw the ball in tight windows, be aggressive, that's what practice is for. What do you take from that message?

DANIEL JONES: Yeah, I mean, you never want to throw interceptions, but I think just the idea to be aggressive and take your shots and see if you can make something happen, kind of let the receivers know that we're going to do that, we're going to give you all opportunities to make plays and we're counting on you to make plays in situations.

I think that's kind of a mindset he has to attack a defense, attack downfield and as a quarterback, a decision maker, you're a big part of that.

That's something we've talked about a lot and something he wants to see in practice.

Q. My 30,000-foot view on you would be that maybe -- did you get away from that a little bit after your first year where it seemed like you were really aggressive and everybody wrote about turnovers and fumbles and ball security and that became such a huge narrative around you, did you become so cautious of that that you lost some aggressiveness?

DANIEL JONES: I mean, I don't think it was what was written or was not written. I think the facts were we were turning the ball over a lot and I was turning the ball over a lot.

I don't know, I think as a quarterback you've got to be able to do both. You've got to be able to be aggressive, take shots and also protect the ball.

It's finding the balance there and the best guys can do that. I'm always working to improve that piece of the decision making process, and yeah, being smart in those situations.

Q. How much does your mindset have to change then, knowing that he's telling you this now, like hey, sort of let it go, throw the ball, don't be afraid, fire?

DANIEL JONES: It's not like a hard change in mindset. I think a lot of it is just understanding plays, understanding situations, understanding the philosophy on when to be aggressive and when not to be aggressive.

I think those are all specific to certain situations. I don't think it's like a big overarching mindset you apply aimlessly every play. I think it's specific and to what the play is trying to do, what the coverage is doing, and understanding that piece of it.

Q. Were you curious during the draft if they were going to take a quarterback?

DANIEL JONES: You know, I was just watching like everyone else was to see how it worked out. I'm excited with the guys we've got, and they've looked good.

Q. How did you feel about them taking an offensive tackle?

DANIEL JONES: Yeah, I was excited. I think excited about Evan, excited about all our guys. Evan has looked great so far, and you can tell he really wants to learn it. He wants to pick it up. It's important to him. He's working hard.

Yeah, we'll keep working as a group to improve.

Q. When Daboll solicits your feedback on what you want to see from the offense, what do you tell him? What do you want more of in an offense to succeed?

DANIEL JONES: I don't know if there's like one thing or another. I think it's a lot of different concepts. In certain situations, maybe tweaking a route, having them run it a certain way or maybe something you're used to, and those are conversations.

I think obviously I'm trying to learn his system, I'm trying to learn the way they've done it, and they've had a ton of success, so there's a healthy balance between how I see it and how he sees it, and those are a lot of conversations and back and forths.

I've learned a ton from how they've done it, and it's early on in that process, too. We've got to rep things over and over again, and that's why this time is so valuable here in the spring to get it.

It's specific kind of play to play.
If he plays this year like he answers press conferences  
Jim in Forest Hills : 5/19/2022 2:45 pm : link
he'll be mvp.
My way to early prediction:  
Ben in Tampa : 5/19/2022 2:56 pm : link
Daboll unlocks something in him, he has a good-to-very-good but not great year.

Just tantalizing enough to not want to let him walk but not great enough for the big extension.

Giants franchise him for 2023.

This is the way I see it playing out as well. Unless they love another QB in the 2023 draft, which is certainly possible. He won't get franchised if he doesn't light it up and there are multiple guys they like in 2023. Who knows... lol. I'm actually really looking forward to the upcoming season, more than I can remember since Coughlin was fired.

You think a good to very-good year gets him $30M next year?

If this plays out then it will also be true that the OL and talent on the perimeter stayed healthy and improved.

The question then is can you find a upgrade in the draft. If they don't think so or are not in position to draft a upgrade then you franchise him. Reevaluate after 2023.
I think

(hope very strongly) that he turns things around at the very least to silence my home boy TERPS, but the road is long and difficult. Gotta pull for the kid though.

...that this, "Dabs was saying that his message to you is throw practice interceptions, throw the ball in tight windows, be aggressive, that's what practice is for," is also for the WR corps. Letting them know to not quit on a route when they are covered or not in an ideal situation in a given play.

Expect the ball and play through every rep.

So far, the guy has always done absolutely everything you want except stay healthy and play great on Sundays - the two most important things of course.

Always been an easy guy to root for.

AcidTest : 5/19/2022 5:19 pm : link
prediction is that Jones will play better this season, but not well enough to justify using the FT on him at a cost of $30M. He will therefore leave as a FA. Same for Barkley. This is the last year for both IMO.
He will be better

the man he followed. And comes across like a good kid & obviously somehow who is determined to improve his game. Sadly, for his sake & ours, I just don't think he has the talent & skillset to do such a thing.
He has confidence in himself

Are any of this authorities on any of this? Hasn't stopped us all from criticizing guys like Engram or Solder, executives like Marc Ross, or knocking people on other teams.

Nope none of us are experts. Yes there is much criticism, some of it even accurate.

But some restraint could be used at times

CrIticism of Jones is warranted. Absolute statements about his impending failure before the book has been closed I find annoying, and from time to time I call out those posts.

Opinion presented as fact is not conducive to open discussion but rather to immature debate which happens too often here, thus my refrain to restraint

Agree 100%. I can understand opinions of all variety, but the people who state absolutely he cannot succeed is galling. Saying you don't think he can or don't see how he can is one thing but saying there's no way he will is different. When I posted about the absolutists, I was told that nobody has posted absolutely that he won't succeed

Mike, my interpretation has been the same. I I think there has been a plethora of such posts.

...believe that what they see and read are facts based on their perception of the data. We can disagree and look past it when it's presented as a conversation.

When it is presented in a way that denigrates all opposing opinions, it becomes aggression and seems counter productive to the community. (think religion or politics)
Opinion as Fact  
Jim in Tampa : 5/20/2022 9:34 am : link
Just because a poster presents his opinion with conviction or says something you disagree with, doesn’t mean they’re stating their opinion as a fact.

The Giants’ record last year was 4-13. (That is a FACT.)

The Giants will only win 6 or 7 games this year, because they’re just not good enough. (That is an OPINION.)

Next year Daniel Jones will be a backup QB for some other team and he’ll be out of the league in 3 years. (That is also an OPINION.)

Most of the posts in this thread (and on BBI for that matter) are OPINIONS! Enough of this BS that others are “stating their opinions as facts”, just because you disagree with what they’ve said.
Yeah, get all caught up in the 'opinions stated as facts' nonsense.  
Jimmy Googs : 5/20/2022 9:38 am : link
You know they're are opinions even if stated strongly because they are all predicated on future events. If you wanted the honest debate you could still have it.

Redirecting the drama isn't helping your cause...

No, more like reading the field, making quick decisions, making the correct decisions, staying healthy, not leading with his head when he's running the ball, etc.

If a QB is just a byproduct of his supporting cast, why would you ever pay more than a rookie contract for any QB?

If DJ needs a perfect scenario around him in order to be successful, why wouldn't we just hand that perfect scenario off to the next rookie QB instead and continue building the roster with a cheap QB contract on the cap instead?

This is the correct answer. He should have no excuses this year. The OL is much better now than he ever has had, and I am more high on the WRs than most here. If he has the same problems GD highlighted in his post, I dont even care if he finishes the season.

It's still an opinion, no matter how strongly worded it is.

If I'm watching a game and I say, "I guarantee they're going to run it on first down" that's still an opinion (as all predictions are) even though I issued a guarantee.

And I suspect you wouldn't have nearly the same reaction to a prediction/opinion that you agree with, even if it was stated with certainty.

In this case, there's a lot of data on that which has already occurred that can be used to predict what is most likely to happen going forward. And many people use that to state their opinion. And conversely, there are a number of environmental factors which have changed, and those might be enough to overcome the predictions that are rooted in past performance.

But there is no data on how DJ plays under Daboll/Kafka/Tierney, with the current OL and healthy skill position players. Logically, that should lead to an improvement in DJ's play. But we don't have any evidence (yet) that it will.

So my assumption (and I acknowledge that it might be unfair to assume this) is that you don't like that one side of the argument has data on their side, and the other only has optimism.

It's not that you really think these opinions are stated as fact. It's that these opinions have some basis in fact. And your opinion can only currently be based in hope.

No explanation is necessary. I think you understand my pt.


It's still an opinion, no matter how strongly worded it is.

If I'm watching a game and I say, "I guarantee they're going to run it on first down" that's still an opinion (as all predictions are) even though I issued a guarantee.

And I suspect you wouldn't have nearly the same reaction to a prediction/opinion that you agree with, even if it was stated with certainty.

In this case, there's a lot of data on that which has already occurred that can be used to predict what is most likely to happen going forward. And many people use that to state their opinion. And conversely, there are a number of environmental factors which have changed, and those might be enough to overcome the predictions that are rooted in past performance.

But there is no data on how DJ plays under Daboll/Kafka/Tierney, with the current OL and healthy skill position players. Logically, that should lead to an improvement in DJ's play. But we don't have any evidence (yet) that it will.

So my assumption (and I acknowledge that it might be unfair to assume this) is that you don't like that one side of the argument has data on their side, and the other only has optimism.

It's not that you really think these opinions are stated as fact. It's that these opinions have some basis in fact. And your opinion can only currently be based in hope.


Everyone is entitled to state what they want here in anyway they want. I stated absolute statements tend to annoy me and at times I push back. It s all good.

Also I don’t think whether I agree or not factors into the equation. I like Daniel Jones, but I have acknowledged often criticism is warranted. But right now he is the starting quarterback, I m not joining the crowd that is writing off the season as a waisted season because of his starting status

They are welcomed to that opinion, I m not wired that way
