Daniel Jones is Toast & John Mara is the only one in denial

Jripper4201 : 2/17/2024 8:29 am
I mean how does he not see it? He’s blown through three coaches, has never led the league in anything passing related, had one winning season in 6 years and is injury prone. His greatest season as a passer was his rookie year and even that is overblown. The guy had 3 huge games against three terrible teams the Lions, Jets and Redskins at the time. Aside of that the guy is a pedestrian check down QB who rarely throws deep with success, rarely throws for 300 years and defenses key on this in every game daring him to throw. This is a passing league, and he is not a very good passer. He also struggles with reads still. His ineptitude was even made clearer by Taylor and Devitos ability to push the ball down field. I just don’t see what can be unlocked in Jones. He’s our version of Trent Dilfer without a Super Bowl ring but then again that may be giving this guy way too much credit. I just cannot believe that in a crucial 3rd season for a coach and GM that they are going to hitch their wagon to this guy, coming off an ACL injury and whose had little success in this league. Despite what some people on this board say, this guy isn’t elite, has never sniffed elite and will never be a top 10 QB in this league. If Schoen and Daboll want to fall on a sword for Mara’s love affair with this guy, then they better get their resumes ready because 2024 is going to lead to both of them at the unemployment line and Mara looking like the idiot he’s been the almost last decade and a half.

I want him to be good. Plus we are stuck with him and his salary cap number for at least one year regardless if he plays well or even plays at all. What else is there to debate about him? Whether we draft his replacement or not?
By your reasoning...Schoen and Daboll would be safe because Mara

Look, EVERYONE (including Mara and Tisch) already know this. All teams make costly mistakes. The key is how and when to get out of it. I'm sure they have all the financial angles sorted out already.

They are not going to announce it to the world or tip their hand to satisfy the posters on BBI.

Let this play out. At this point, it's just piling on, isn't helpful and just boring.

The guy has started 60 NFL games and your full evaluation of him comes down to a single start.

Is it more important because it is the playoffs? How did he do against the Eagles the week after?

I'm sure you are a nice guy, but your posts about Daniel Jones are so desperately emotional they just can't be taken seriously as football opinions.

And to the OP - the vast majority of people are where you are. We don't need more "Jones isn't very good" threads.

Jones has had that fumbles-too-much moniker because of his first season. Those gimble numbers have dipped since his second season.

Yet Fields has 38 fumbles in 38 games and no one cares. His inconsistencies is too much to ignore especially with having good talent around him like DJ Moore and Cole Kmet. I've still seen posters in here who would welcome him in NY.

It's a very smart point by Warner.

However, Fields is more talented than Jones. If someone can get his mind right - and that's a big if - the sky might be the limit. The DJFC like to say how bad the surroundings have been for Jones. But I would argue the Bears have been even worse for Fields. At least Jones has had the benefit of a few good offensive minds...
And yet the Bears

I want to say ryan was staking a position last year that he would take Jones over LJax. Zero hesitation.

I want to say Allen, too. But I may be getting him mixed up with a fellow zealot in the DJFC.
I do recall his response

To people who had a differing opinion on paying Jones was “he’s going to be here along time, deal with it”

JohnF : 2/17/2024 3:24 pm : link
Daniel Jones will still be on the Giants in 2024, and if healthy will start as QB1. That's even if the team drafts a QB or signs a vet.

Jones will be better than almost any free agent QB that the Giants can afford (based on the cap), and it's foolish to throw a rookie QB into the fire. The best case scenario is that we draft a QB, and Jones gets "Kurt Warnered" halfway through the season (either from injury or lousy play). That would allow the rookie to get his feet wet and Daboll to prepare him.

We all know what Jones is after all his time here, and so does Mara, the Giants FO, and the Coaches (even though they won't express it in public for OBVIOUS reasons!!!). The key here is to have a proper plan in place to replace him.

The problem isn’t Daniel Jones the man. He’s great. He just is a sub par QB. He’s coming off a knee injury and won’t be able to utilize his greatest strength his mobility. If he does and gets hurt the Giants are screwed because of his injury clause. Better to let him ride the line and say goodbye in 25 than be stuck with him beyond IMO.

Sean : 2/17/2024 6:49 pm : link
That's not fair. So, if Ryan brings up the Viking highlights as a counter to Jones not sucking, it's valid.

I just think he's very limited and not worth anything near what he's getting paid. He does t suck. He throws a nice ball, has good straight line speed and is very tough to his credit. He's a back end starter if he's cheap. GM's have been fooled by talents like Jones before and after.

I'm tired of the Jones era. For his sake, I hope he eventually lands somewhere else and is a good fit. But, the Giants need to move on. In today's NFL, you need to be able to produce through the air and via explosive plays. They just aren't there with Jones.

BleedBlue46 : 2/17/2024 9:15 pm : link
It is clear to me that we need to draft a qb and if we don't I think Daboll and Schoen are as good as gone. This team needs a QB for Daboll to mold more than anything. I really believe we will get one of the top 4 in rd one. I hope it's Jayden Daniels, but more likely JJ McCarthy. Either way, I will be excited going forward with one of the top 4 and I think Daboll and Schoen know it needs to happen this year.
Daniel Jones will be a great backup QB.

The DJHC loves to criticize any player, coach or ex player who would support DJ. Goes something like this, Oh, what is he supposed to say, or he works for the Giants and is carrying their message, or they're friends. Another words, anyone complimenting DJ has a secret agenda for doing so. However, if Kurt Warner, a guy known to dislike the Giants from his stay there, criticizes DJ, it's, see even Warner knows he was a mistake.
