Incidentally, 17 of Daks 21 completions were within 6 yards of the line of scrimmage.
Here is the difference between Jones and Dak.
In the tweet below Nabers is open out of the break, he cruises upfield for 3 steps before then ball arrives. When it finally does Nabers takes an unnecessary shot, which coincidentally wore on him as the game went on and Sy alluded to in his review.
If the ball arrives when Nabers is immediately open out of his break this is a longer gain and Nabers has the opportunity to evade the big hit.
Dak gets the ball there out of the break and gives his WR a chance at a bigger play. Jones’s pass is way too effing late. Link - ( New Window )

Actually I am wrong on this… Nabers takes seven steps before the ball arrives not 3.

Watching the end zone view it looks like DJ waited until Nabers “cleared” #50. Once Nabers gets a few yards beyond him, DJ let it go. I don’t have the software required to record and share it.
Not making excuses. He needs to continue to improve on his timing and placement. Watching it from that view, I don’t think this play is your best example. He was late and threw to the wrong shoulder a couple of times on the same drive earlier in the game that limited YAC for Nabers and WDR. Also led to hits that a better ball may avoid. I do think Jones’ accuracy improved as the game went on.
Daniel Jones is ranked 33rd in y/a this season. The rest of the league may be doing it due to the defenses strategy but Jones is in a different stratosphere.
LOL. It's absolutely true, but that alone doesn't exonerate the Giants offense.

These defensive adjustments may also explain other early trends in 2024. For instance, average air yards per pass attempt have dropped to 7.7 yards — the lowest in over a decade and nearly a full yard fewer than in 2019. Deep pass attempts — throws 20+ yards downfield — have decreased from 10.2 per game in 2019 to 7.7 per game in 2024.
Jones is actually 11th in the league in intended are yards per attempt at 7.4. While quarterbacks like Mahomes, Allen, Burrow, Jackson, Cousins, Rodgers, and Mayfield are all below 7 IAY/PA.
The utilization of two-high safeties is changing the game.
The problem for the Giants is when the big plays are there Jones is throwing the ball into the ground. Link - ( New Window )
I believe Jones is tied for 13th in the league in time to throw. Jones is getting a very healthy 2.8 seconds - on average - to execute.
Now, some of that # can be skewed for a mobile QB buying time, but I think most of the board believes the OL has done their job thus far giving Jones adequate pass protection.
So, he's got the time, but he's still settling for the easier throws.
The league at large is trying to figure out how to contend with the two-high safety look. If Jones hits a wide open Slayton on Thursday he probably comes out of the weekend with a 2-2 record and in the top 10 in completed air yards in the league.
lol, well done. The Santa Barbara offense, patented by Brian Davoli.
Exactly. And nobody is killing Dak. Also Daks receivers didn’t drop 5 balls every game.
Derp.
And I don’t even like Dak that much.
Dumb comparison of that was the goal.

That’s not true at all.
Precious. You accepting mediocrity and wanting to keep your head buried in the sand is YOUR problem
That’s not true at all.
