Daniel Jones Worried about NYG Taking 1st Rd QB?

BleedBlue46 : 4/15/2024 9:42 pm


Does this look like the face of someone whom feels confident in his job security?

Many here were speculating Daniel Jones speaking to media was Mara's way of easing fans into the 2024 season with DJ, a new and improved offensive line and an elite WR prospect. This face makes me feel like Daniel is extremely insecure about his position as QB of the future for the NYG.

Agreed, I laughed out loud at the face though. I can see the young Jim Carey comparisons.

knee-jerk reaction is going to be "c'mon, this is going too far."

But Daniel didn't look right today. I've seen a bunch of his interviews the past five years and he hasn't looked like that.

I had the same reaction. Maybe the rehab on the knee is getting rocky? Or there’s something else in play? Not a good look for the guy.

Agreed, I was trying to make it somewhere in between a joke and being serious, but this was my thought as well. Between being slumped with his hand over his face in the video of their introduction to voluntary workouts to his interview.

in creating a perfect, 31st rank offense....no matter what he says or does, DJ, just ain't got it. His history of -2 yard dump offs over his 6 year history is the infuriating proof. Thanks DG, for you parting, losing gift.... that just keeps on giving. Must move on, unless Mara likes continual losing.

great villain Putin. Forget about Russia's history with Germany in World War II, and the expansion of NATO, and the numerous chances to settle this by diplomacy, including the draft peace treaty negotiated in the first months of the war.

It's easiest to just blame Jones for the team's failure, and this also makes the Giants easiest to fix. Just replace Jones.

Forget about 2022 and just give his 2023 teammates a bit of blame and we're almost ready to roll replacing Jones.

Next year will probably be his last, due to injuries and shell shock as much as lack of talent. Simms says he's certain Jones has the talent, and Mel Keiper said he's shown flashes of brilliance. You are probably right, but have not been fair to the guy.

He used to handle these media sessions with ease, going from one cliche to the next. This seemed like he was nervous from the get-go. Maybe even a little defensive (if that's an emotion he's capable of).

Hopefully it's a sign that he really will need to compete for his job for once.

Disappear? If the Giants don't take a QB I'll be complaining daily about it.
It looks like he has some sort of stress  
GiantTuff1 : 4/16/2024 6:19 am : link
disorder probably induced by pressure of NY and this current situation.

His eyes were really weird today. I feel for the kid but he has to be removed at QB, maybe for the sake of his mental health too beyond the common sense of his play not cutting it.

At the risk of playing amateur Internet doctor, after the scar on his neck was speculated to be from thyroid surgery, it made me wonder if his eye issues are a result of Graves disease.

This isn't the first time he's looked like this in a photo or video.

Thanks for posting - it’s a conference call and he’s apparently concentrating on hearing the questions, which is affecting his countenance. He seems guarded in his responses, but his expressions are normal, and he even smiles confidently when answering “I do, yes.” to being asked if he’s the best QB on the team.

If he looks weird during an actual presser in front of people, that might be noteworthy - but this interview isn’t anything to draw conclusions from.

Jim in Tampa : 4/16/2024 8:22 am : link
My guess is that after DJ has spent months reading about how bad a QB he is, how big a mistake his contract was, how some teammates feel Saquon should have been paid first, and how the Giants (as well as most of the fanbase) want to draft his replacement... that DJ felt a little stressed having to face to press.

Jones never looked (bug-eyed) like that before, because his career is on the line and he's never had to face that line of questioning before.

Maybe so, but I'm guessing that most, if not all "BBIers" have watched tons of DJ interviews, and yesterday's "bug-eyed" look was on a different level.
If failure had a face...lol  
averagejoe : 4/16/2024 8:37 am : link
The bug eyes are pretty funny but meaningless. Jones has to know he is vastly overpaid and on his way out. Lock will replace him as a starter even if no QB is drafted. His time here is done .
Daniel Jones is not to blame for yesterday’s press conference  
HardTruth : 4/16/2024 8:43 am : link
The fault lies with the Communications team that arranged it. They had bad lighting, cameras were in a terrible position, where was the hair/makeup team? He wasnt prepped well enough for the questions . There was nothing Jones could do.

The Giants clearly failed Jones yesterday
