Start playing or GTFO.
Can also seemingly completely blame KG. A man that has had WAY more proven success in the NFL. It's puzzling.
Especially the fact that DJ seems to have an aversion to throwing contested balls, which is really a part of KG's game, perhaps there is something to his frustration.
Not saying I like him just that I feel like I see the same people ready to tar and feather this guy and falling over themselves to make excuses for DJ.

Yeah, does he realize that in the NFL, "play" also requires "effort"?
Let's hope this pissed him off and motivates him.

Is DJ one of the highest paid players at his position? Is it that hard to understand there are different circumstances at play here?
I'm thrilled I got benched? I'm sure that David Sills is a much better player than I am?
Honestly I don't get why people are mad at him. He got offered an ocean of money by Gettleman and he quite correctly took it.
Should he have refused on moral ground? Seems kind of unrealistic.

Classic BJ hater at all costs. How about stick to Galloday? The thread topic.
Its a bizarre situation to me.

Regardless of what anyone here says, Goladay hasn't played well enough to get playing time over James and Sills.

Throws to James Ritchie and Bellinger just fine.
Nothing about this offense is excelling....but one at least...gives those that put the effort in to get better.
Neal is a perfect example....his play on the field can be better....but at least we respect the extra time he puts in...to get better and I have no doubt he will.
To add, Golladay....Unfortunately sign a massive deal(good for him)....but as fans....we measure cap dollars to football assets....and Golladay seems to have sold the Giants a bill of goods.
That is on the Giants...but we lost some key players due to cap.
Golladay can make it all better by playing like an alfa WR.

Fair point. In Detroit, and this was mentioned by a few of us when we signed KG, Stafford could throw KG open because he is fearless with his confidence that he can put the ball anywhere.
Regardless, this is such a bad fit for KG and NYG. Need to find a trading partner.
How exactly are conditions supposedly untenable for a QB but KG's poor play is entirely on him? It's a point on hypocrisy.
And yeah, I don't hate Jones, I just want him fairly assessed, something many fail to do.

Yeah like Glennon and Fromm were lighting it up throwing to him with their fearless throwing.

I thought we all pretty much agreed these guys were garbage, this is a real reach

No problem with him wanting to play. The problem is when he says he 'should' be playing. Smacks of entitlement. Has anyone read a single sentence about him putting in extra work with Jones?

But how does the downgrade in qb explain him often quitting on routes, alligator arms, etc.?
We really have next to nothing at WR.
Golladay: $72M and can't separate.
Slayton: Had to take a pay cut from $2.5M to stay on the team, and presumably did so because it was still more than he could get elsewhere.
Robinson: Injured and unproven rookie.
KT. Electrifying but injury prone. JonC said Robinson was drafted to send KT a "message." Have to hope he develops.
Sills: JAG.
Shepard. Coming off an achilles with a history of concussions.
James. The best WR on team, but should be in a complimentary, not a #1 role.

Golloday has a better case than Jones. He excelled in college and the NFL. Jones has never produced anywhere.
The money is different, so is something else.

Is James garbage? He seems perfectly capable of getting open and catching passes unlike Golladay.

I guess you are talking about the season that Stafford missed half of. That was Galloday's best season. His other one was ok. That Stafford is a great "tool guy". Even throws people open from the sideline. 3 win team with two backup QB's playing. I'm sure defenses were amped up trying to stop him.

Yeah, the money is different.
Golloday has a better case than Jones. He excelled in college and the NFL. Jones has never produced anywhere.
The money is different, so is something else.
The other thing that's different is other WR's are getting open, even if just a little. I'm sure our offense would be better with a better QB but for the time being Jones is the best we have and he should be throwing to guys that actually give a shit and can do their jobs.
If that ends up being KG, great. If not you won't see him play much.
Not setting world on fire but very respectable.
Then KG got hurt, missed three games, came back for three quiet games before Jones got hurt.
If the issue now were actually a matter of Jones not wanting to throw to KG, how to explain those 27 targets in the first four games of 2021?
The most plausible explanation is that KG is another year slower and further down the hill.
He's three years removed from the year that got him the big contract. A lot of guys are NFL old at 28.
I guess you are talking about the season that Stafford missed half of. That was Galloday's best season. His other one was ok. That Stafford is a great "tool guy". Even throws people open from the sideline. 3 win team with two backup QB's playing. I'm sure defenses were amped up trying to stop him.
KG caught 11 TDs that season. Seven were from Stafford.
He had five 100+ yard games that year. Four of those with Stafford.
And over half his catches that year came from Stafford passes.
Right now they have nobody anywhere close in talent imv.

The clear difference is that Golladay's poor play seems to be from lack of effort or caring. While DJ has his warts, those do not include putting in adquate effort to try to improve. I've never played for a coach at any level who was going to reward a player half assing it.
Hey Kenny: Give us all something to be happy about and go out there, make an effort, bust your ass and make some great plays. Nothing else matters or needs to be discussed
I honestly loved the player at his best in Detroit. His hips and knees seem to be holding him back now. He absolutely FLEECED the prior admin. How they didn't see this and also bid against themselves...we'll never no.
