Because Dallas has the threat of the deep ball, their QB can do it.
Not one ball was thrown in the end zone  
Larry in Pencilvania : 9/27/2024 1:16 am : link
Every deep ball was poorly thrown. There are no more excuses. The oline gave Jones enough time to make an Italian hoagie. Nabers is a rookie and is setting records but makes Ronnie mistakes. Drops yes but no excuses.

Time to cut bait... Six years is way more than enough

But he didn't. He barely threw the ball over 7 yards and only over 15 once...for 17. No long ball from Big D tonight.

Oh now I get it. They didn't even have to try to beat us because Jones was in the game. Probably why our Oline didn't run block and why Burns was a no show. It's clear now. Thanks.

Most people from Ohio are stupid? You are clearly just saying non-sensical things now. Where do you come from that most people are clearly smarter than peopel from Ohio, and what are you basing that on?

You are really angry and saying really stupid things that make no sense, like people from certain states are mostly dumb. You aren’t a serious person. Maybe you are just drunk? Either way, you revealed yourself.

Mike from Ohio : 9/27/2024 2:08 am : link
You really seem to have a tough time understanding what you are reading.

“We have dumb fans” = there are dumb fans in the group. That can be 1 or more (yeah, I was talking about Thunderstruck. I was calling him dumb).

“You’re dumb, like most people from Ohio” = More than 50% of people from Ohio are dumb.

Do you still need more clarification on the difference? I called a specific person dumb based on what that specific person said. There are over 10 million people in Ohio. If we assume there are 10 million from Ohio, he said at least 5 million of them were dumb.

This isn’t hard.

That Dak throw covered just over twenty yards in the air and is therefore beyond Jones' current capabilities.

Nabers had 15 targets with 12 catches. The other 3 were a drop, the tough play on the sideline on 4th down, and I forgot the third one.

If a WR catches 80% of the passes thrown at him - he should be targeted as much as possible.

Yep, this is it. And now we have an elite WR and good pass protection and still don't score.

I don’t think I saw anyone say Daboll, Slayton and Robinson were really good tonight and Jones lost them the game. Jones get talked about the most because the offense runs through him and he gets paid $40M/year, and the offense isn’t good.

Jones isn’t the only problem this team has, but he is certainly a significant problem.

It is when 90% of the throws go about 3 yards. Every other team sees what we are doing and they will pack their defense in tight. Don't have to worry about the floaters we call long passes so why protect against it? Nabers could have put up the fair catch sign for the pass he caught on the broken coverage.
Let’s put it this way..  
JT039 : 9/27/2024 7:48 am : link
At one point Jones was 21-24 and had a YPA of over 9. YPC has been a bad subject for Jones over the years.

When you’re averaging 9 yards per attempt - the passing game is working. Yes Jones deep ball was brutal. But his short to intermediate game was pinpoint last night.

We had two major problems in the pass game last night.
1. Jones deep ball
2. Daboll play calling inside the 25.

Neither should be scapegoated. Both are to blame.

He is good at getting the ball out of his hands quickly on short routes. The problem is that the defense can sit on those routes and just make the tackles because the offense isn’t stretching the field. The defense knows the offense can’t stretch the field.

This is how you defend backup QBs or how you play when you know your QB has no time in the pocket. Everything has to come out fast because plays developing down field is not an issue if the QB can’t throw them.

I would not be surprised to see Dallas’ run defense continue to struggle in their next few games. The didn’t fix the problem last night, they just ran into an offense that made the job easier.

Absolutely. You can’t score without chunk plays. If you can’t create chunk plays through the passing game, you aren’t going to score very many points, regardless of how many 5 year out routes you hit.

I agree that in the long run - you can’t win many games unless you get big chunk plays.

IMO - what Jones is good at - was working last night and for whatever reason Daboll deviated it when it mattered most. We could have won the game getting 6-7-8 yards per pass.
Could they have won the game?  
ajr2456 : 9/27/2024 8:11 am : link
I’d argue they ran the same offense in the red zone that they did the rest of the game. It’s a lot harder to dink and dunk your way to a TD when there’s less yards to cover.

This. You can’t dink and dunk into the end zone. Dallas let the Giants dink and dunk up and down the field knowing that if they didn’t give up a big play, they would win. They were right.

I’m sure the Dallas defense did not walk off the field thinking, “man that guy just carved us up! We have to be better than that!”

It’s hard to score running on 1st and second long with no success either.

Again - you are failing to acknowledge that many of the runs failed when Dallas was clearly playing the pass.

2nd and goal from 10 - no yards
1 and 15 - 1 yard
1st and 10 - no yards

That was a constant theme last night. We scored pretty easily in the red zone against a better defense last week because we didn’t use our best player as a decoy/blocker.

Come on. You’re better than this. You really think Dallas was playing the runnin 2nd and 10 and 2nd and 15?

You think their main concern was Devin singletary? Or Malik nabers? The run blocking sucked last night. Call a spade a spade.
The defense gets paid too, and nobody is arguing the run blocking was  
ajr2456 : 9/27/2024 8:33 am : link
good. They were so concerned about Nabers beating them they let him get 15 targets and 12 catches for 115 yards.

They knew they didn’t have worry about the deep ball, had the corners play off and clean up after the catch and threw the rest of the their energy at stopping the run.
Outside his last run against cleveland  
JT039 : 9/27/2024 8:36 am : link
Singletary has 29 carries for 46 yards in the last two games Teams don’t gear up to stop the run. They stop the run because we can’t run block.

Or we can’t run block because teams are throwing extra resources at it  
ajr2456 : 9/27/2024 8:41 am : link
It doesn’t only have to be one thing.

The lack of a deep threat makes run blocking harder.

The Giants have a lot of tendencies. One of them is that they are one of the team who most frequently run the ball on 2nd and long. So yes, on second and long they were playing the run because that is typically what the Giants do.

This is simply not true. Slayton is consistently open all over the field Jones just never hits him.

The QB doesn’t make defenses pay and they don’t fear him at all. When Jones plays his team doesn’t put up points or touchdowns. They are now 6 seasons of evidence of this.
