But there isn't a doubt in my mind that the entire locker room felt this way the entire year. A massive pair of contract blunders by a galactically tone deaf Joe Schoen. He needs to pivot quickly to have any credibility going forward.

Doubtful the entire team feels the same. Shown did the right thing at the time.
We'd be in much better shape right now. Barkley actually supplies value to the team (we can argue how much vs the $$), but certainly more than Jones. Plus the other team members really respect Barkley
I hope Saquon and DJ never play a down for the Giants again. I can’t for this era to be OVER. Dave Gettleman is a fucking bafoon and John Mara is an even bigger idiot for putting this franchise in this situation.
But he left a sizable contract on the table last year. Comparable to the Jones contract in the sense that it's a notch below the top contracts at the position but still 25-30% over the tag. Can't act like the team insulted him or made some huge mistake.
Barkley plays a part here.
RE: RE: He leaves out that the Giants offered Barkley a very good deal,
Barkley turned it down, gambled on himself, and lost and took a gigantic L this season.
But according to some here
Barkley got shafted
No, their own poor opinions were found to be flawed. So what these posters do is turn it around and say the player got shafted to insulate themselves from taking a bad position.
Barkley turned it down, gambled on himself, and lost and took a gigantic L this season.
We don’t know the terms of the deal so it’s hard to judge but things would’ve turned out way better for everyone (well, almost everyone) if SB signed the deal allowing us to tag DJ.
Saquon was offered a large contract during the season, before his production fell off a cliff.
Saquon and his agents turned it down....they gambled and lost.
KT is a 2nd year player that really shouldn't be commenting on veteran players' contracts. Something Tiki Barber learned the hard way from Michael Strahan years ago.

use a Quaalude. Getting worked up over a youngish player supporting a well respected vet player. In case you missed it, while Daniel Jones is the leader of the team, his right hand man and team vocal leader is Saquon Barkley. You cannot dismiss the lockerroom dynamic.
Barkley is about to be shown the door and it does not sit well with the players. (even if it is the correct thing to do)
And before you get to uppity, I want Jones replaced and Barkley to either stay on the "cheap" or be let go to test FA.
A locker room with good leadership probably doesn't have this come out at all.
Agree. Leadership has been a major problem with this team. It started with the 10 captain bullshit.
The season is over. The players have gone home and some are gone forever.
Do they have a virtual lockerrom so they can talk things over in the offseason? Or maybe - this is the lockerroom feeling? Just because it doesn't align with our sentiment doesn't make it derisive. Players are allowed to support each other and do not need our approval.
A locker room without good leadership would have quit down the stretch of the season.
But you do you

No they just quit after they had a field goal blocked on there first possession of the season.
KT needs to focus on getting better.

Nice spin
Playing terribly isn’t quitting
After starting 2-8…..going 4-3 and playing hard doesn’t happen without leadership
But I’m sure you will spin it to something else
The sooner Jones is an ex Giant, the better. Its over.
Agreed.

Yep, those people are morons.
This is true.
Jones should no longer be our quarterback but Barkley is no victim.

X infinity
I corrected your math.
Can't argue with that.
Couple that with the product the NFL is putting out and it may make sense to look into other entertainment during the fall
So you have one stupid player talking out of school and therefore we have "rot" on the team?
I agree with you 100% though on the NFL and the shit it has turned into. This is not the game of football that I grew up loving and playing.
Barkley plays a part here.

The worse part about it is, you would think the Giants would have learned something, anything from drafting Toney and Baker. Nope….

Outside of saying something dumb today
Exactly what has he done to justify calling him a clown?
1) He is right.

2) He is an idiot saying this publicly.

Exactly this.

What if Thibs IS a locker room leader? He has a big personality and is probably the most famous guy on the defense.

Quaaludes again... - ( New Window )
This? LOL
1 yard loss
2 yard loss
20 yard gain followed by by more yards loss.
And forget short yardage situation. He sucks at it.
But Giants really should draft a qb and let Jones walk after next year if he doesn't bounce back with an exception year.

Here’s a tip
Try watching the games a bit closer to understand what you are seeing
Wow
If only there was a traceable pattern.
