“I honestly feel bad for Daniel,” Tate told Andy Vasquez of NJ Advance Media on Wednesday. “He was drafted into a rebuilding organization for one, had Pat Shurmur for a year and then got Joe Judge for two years, now another head coach and another rebuild going into his fourth season. He hasn’t had Saquon [Barkley], myself, [Kenny] Golladay, Sterling [Shepard]. No one is ever on the field at the same time. And then on top of that, he had [Jason] Garrett [as his offensive coordinator] and that probably didn’t help much. |
Tate on Jones - (
New Window )
If there was more evidence that Jones had shown difference-making skills, I would be willing to consider this. But Jones hasn't. What we have seen over three years is a game manager-type with a very low ceiling.
The only argument for Jones is that without him, the offense went from pretty bad to USFL level.
He has one more shot due to serendipity. Let's see what he does.
What's even more bizarre is after his disaster of a second season, they don't even find a backup worthy of competing against Jones.
What's even more bizarre than that they give him ANOTHER chance to "pop off" in his 4th year of working.
Has a QB/RB combo like Jones/Barkley (who have gotten 0 done) ever started this many years in a row together? Yikes.
Glennon has made 5 nfl rosters and been in the league for 10 years. Jake Fromm started in the BCS championship game. They 'literally' aren't garbage.
Does anyone else feel like their hedged? If he sux this year as many suspect the Giants move on and continue the decades long rebuild, if he has a great year maybe we have something with the combo of Jones/Daboll
Every Sunday they played was garbage day.
If you did miss those games, the joke isn't on you, I guess.

I see what you're saying, but the great year doesn't seem very likely. A lot more likely is "the arrow pointing up" year, where Jones is like the 18th best QB in the league. That mild improvement combined with Mara's lust for Daniel, could lock us into mediocrity for a long time
