Bengals vs Giants Game Review – Daniel Jones I’M Done With You Recap! John and Eric look back at the Giants pathetic loss to the Bengals and more importantly look Daniel Jones and his play. They go over why it was worse than it seems and what the Giants SHOULD do with Jones and the quarterback position in general.

Regarding your comment about passing up the extra point attempt at 29-20 - there is a reason for that - a blocked kick return (which just happened to the Seahawks) makes it 29-22 with Seattle getting the ball. That being said, I think it is better not to worry about it and try to go up by 10.

Yeah, I know the "mathematics " but that weird 30 point barrier to me and being up 10 would have meant more.

Worried about a blocked extra point is pretty "scared ball" to me..

Eh. It's smart. You're then up 9 and SEA cannot have any chances to score twice given that amount of time left.

JVM, I feel exactly the same as you with DeVito. Get him in there and see what he can do. This season is over, time to see if DeVito is at least a nice backup to have for the future. Who knows, guy could come in with a better line than last year and Nabers and play lights out.

Matt M. : 10/16/2024 12:55 am : link
Last week I watched and loved both the Mark Collins and Perry Williams interviews. Great work.

As for this episode, I agree 100% with you guys. I think the fact that DeVito makes the most sense says a lot about our off season. Lock made no sense. He had no place in our future, he gives them no chance to win if needed. He was a safe choice that offers no competition whatsoever for Jones, regardless of how Jones is playing. At least with Taylor, we would have a shot to win a few games.

So, I agree to DeVito. He's also not an answer for the future as a starter. But, he still has a shot to stick as a cheap backup or #3. More importantly, as you said, at the very least, with a little time, he's going to make throws downfield and add some energy.
Eric,

You summed it up with your hypothetical around 55:15: (paraphrasing) "If they've convinced themselves Jones is capable based on a couple good games, this isn't the right coaching staff because they can't evaluate the quarterbacks correctly."

That right there is the state of things. Jones being bad at his job is not the story this year. The story is Schoen and Daboll being bad at their jobs.

To answer John's question about which quarterback we want to see start, my answer is Jones. It's what these people deserve, and it's the most likely path to a 4-13 humiliation and losing the locker room.
Jones brings out the worst of BBI  
Maijay : 10/16/2024 5:20 am : link
I just don't get the vitriol towards him. He is what he is a journeyman type quarterback and nothing more. DJ gave it his best shot but that wasn't good enough. Mara's wanted to give DJ another chance with improve personnel has failed. Schoen/Daboll knew the boss wanted superior players to hopefully bring out the best of DJ but that hasn't happened.
If Schoen had the stones to tell Mara that much better offensive players can't make Jones a franchise quarterback .We are in qb hell and maybe next years draft will get us that franchise qb that we need and covet but don't hold your breath. Frustration and despair seems to be driving us crazy because we can't get the quarterback back position right. I fear Schoen/Daboll are not the men that can solve our qb dilemma.

Regardless of what you want this  
jvm52106 : 10/16/2024 6:39 am : link
Year, the bigger picture dictates that Jones cannot get hurt. Jones's days as a starter, as a player for the NY Giants would be over now if I were in charge.

You move to Devito, trade Slayton and Ojulari and move towards 2025.

John and Eric I m with you guys it's time for DeVito.  
Blue21 : 10/16/2024 6:46 am : link
Although I think if they make a change I fear it's Lock . To me they need to see if DeVito can at least be a backup. And let's face it DeVito won three games last year being thrown in there cold.

"Therapy". I reply, "Therapy. Eric makes me feel like I am not alone out there wandering the dark, cold nights of Giants football. It is a shared pain. It is a shared grief."

"OK." She wanders off shaking her head slightly.

Your insult actually gets to the heart of the central contradiction of Jones: despite his physical size and his reputation for being tough, there's something very wimpy about the way he plays. It's not just the lack of touchdowns and impact at home; even in the away games, he seems to only put up just enough points to eeek out a win. He rarely buries teams or hits a kill shot to make it a 2 or 3 score game in the 4th quarter.

Joe Schoen & Brian Daboll know exactly what they have in Daniel Jones. This is the Daniel Jones transition year for the Giants whether or not fans approve. Next year starts a new QB cycle for this franchise. It’s possible that Jones may even be the starter at the beginning of 2025, but that would only be because his replacement needs a little time to view things from the sideline before being thrown into the fire.
M.S. on an otherwise level playing field, I'd agree  
ColHowPepper : 10/16/2024 9:12 am : link
but I think the injury guarantee trumps all. 99% of fans would be grateful and relieved if Jones were not starting beginning now and of course for '25, but if that is because that guarantee has been triggered, it guts the team's flexibility to improve, across the board.
Eric is dead on about these snippets they give you  
UberAlias : 10/16/2024 9:21 am : link
I actually expect one this week with possible win over Philly, but don't let that fool you.

DJ is the problem here though. He just doesn't challenge anyone in the vertical game, and every D coordinator in the league knows it. Daboll knows it too, you can see it in his interviews.

In reality, I think there's very little vitriol specifically directed towards Daniel Jones. People are justifiably sick of watching him play QB for the New York Giants, and of the people who inexplicably defend his poor play and puff out their chests every time he has one of his rare strong performances.

It's year six of this shit, and it's exhausting. I have no ill will towards Daniel Jones, I just look forward to the day he's not the QB for this team. I cannot fucking wait.

Ok.

Do you have a boss at your job? One whose family started the company 100 years ago? One so pigheaded and sensitive to criticism that he only accepts credit for the company's success?

I have a feeling you would be replaced quickly after you told them they're wrong.

But for a few lucky breaks in his young football life, Jones would probably have graduated with an Economics degree from Princeton and would currently be one the most popular people at Merrill Lynch's wealth management office in Charlotte.

on Jones. He should sit, no doubt. But at this point....Coach has to bench him. If he can't do that, then he needs to go. I doubt it is Shoen making that call. If its ownership, then not much we can do....but its no longer Jones' "fault" at this point.

We know what he is, and he's playing to his best efforts (its what Daboll said). Unless they are tanking, then we wont know that strategy. But Jones needs a change of scenery at this point.

Its hard to be mad at him anymore. Its just bad and getting worse for the franchise. Leadership looks weak.

If you watched the video, it's not anger. As I repeatedly said, the situation just sucks the life out of you. Does anyone actually REALLY look forward to Giants games anymore? Or do you watch out of a morbid sense of impending doom?

But I don't want to see Lock or DeVito either. Neither one is the answer. Yes, the change may generate a spark and we win a few more games and have a good time of it. Then what--? We still need our f-ing QB. We'll be kicking ourselves in April over every meaningless win which did nothing but push us further from the real answer we need.

The team should be putting their chips in the middle, yes, but not to save the season --to save the franchise. We should be sellers at the trade deadline and we should getting young guys out there. Andre Thomas is out --so be it. Get Neal the hell in there and figure his shit out. If it's ugly, it's ugly. Our wins don't come on the score card, they come in the individual performance of young players on this roster. This is a roster we can win with, we just need a guy behind center that can do what starting caliber NFL QBs do.

I think I addressed that in my point- it isn't about the better QB or even about wins (though we might win games and if we did it proves the system works just not Jones), but it is about believing that this organization is looking at being better and different, not tired and accepting..
Eric is absolutely spot on.........We don't dislike Daneil as a person  
GiantBlue : 10/16/2024 10:00 am : link
but he does suck the life out of you as a diehard fan who just wants him to ascend to that next level where he consistently plays smart, athletic football.

If I saw him on the street, I would shake his hand. It doesn't mean I don't want a different, better quarterback running our team.

Eric lays it out perfectly. After many night games, you go to bed feeling the life has been sucked out of you and then you remember when you wake up.

For me, it is more frustration with DJ that he can't execute some pretty basic QB fundamentals. My anger is directed to the front office of the Giants for creating this disfunctional mess and allowing it to continue for so long. That start with John Mara, but is not limited to Mara. The Giants Way now stands for incompetence.

This is where I'm at. I'm sure Jones is counting the days to leave the NYC metro area forever.

The fools that paid him can go to hell. And that very much includes Schoen and Daboll, who either supported paying him or were available of convincing Mara that it was stupidity. Either way, they're part of the problem.
