Pitt may make the decision for Daboll anyway.


Carolina would be the game to start someone else. The Eagles in Philly is going to be another shitshow.
It tells you Davoli thinks Jones is their best shot to win

and he's going to coach to keep his job, unless Schoen/Mara signal it's time to sit Jones, either for the injury protection or otherwise.

The entire situation sucks, and you could see it a mile away after the Vikes playoff win. I hate being able to see their mistakes coming. WAKE UP!

Oh I'm going to weigh in on all of this shit tonight on the podcast.
So basically...

he just told the defence to dress for the game so they could collect a check.
I will never get over the fact  
SimpleMan : 10/21/2024 1:29 pm : link
that they purposely did not bring in anyone to compete with Jones. They just handed him the job, told Lock he is the backup, and that is that. The very minimum should have been a Fields or similar type deal where someone could at least try to dethrone Lord Danny. Its unfathomable.
Not surprising.  
ThomasG : 10/21/2024 1:34 pm : link
Disappointing but not surprising at all.

Digging their own graves that was started with that ridiculous contract 2 years ago, adding no other real options since, and now getting ready to jump 6 feet under.

When I was younger I just assumed the people running NFL teams were generally very smart people that knew what they were doing and were, when things didn't work out, victims of circumstance.

Now we're older and into our own careers in various fields, and we know better. Incompetence is everywhere, including the NFL.

The people running the New York Giants are incompetent.

the NYG are now the Cleveland Browns.

The similarities are getting to be too obvious.

Its scary when you start going through and looking at the things BBI's group think has been correct on vs what The Giants did that didn't work.

Our offense consisting of Quenten Nelson, Nick Chubb and Justin Herbert would be pretty darn good IMO.
 
SFGFNCGiantsFan : 10/21/2024 1:43 pm : link
Whatever.

I’ll be watching Knicks Cavs. I’m not watching a second of Jones anymore behind center. None. Call me a ‘bad fan’, but I’m done.

They're really bad, repeatedly, over how many years now. Making millions and sucking historically while producing a shite product. How many times have you heard an NFL employee say out loud "I'd be teaching phys ed if it weren't for football!". Truth.

I watch the Steelers, Chiefs, 49ers, and teams with winning cultures and proven systems with envy. Shoulda hired Peters, he knows talent.

I would have loved to se Mara's expression when Tyrod/DeVito outplayed Jones last season.

'Joe, go get worse QBs to back up my Daniel pronto..."

No its not. Just look at their performance when in games. They both stink.

Spot on Terps, 100% agree.
RE: Daboll lacks common sense but Shoen sucks too

Starting Jones with the season out of reach shows that Daboll does not have the Giants longterm interests in mind. You can’t blame him though. As bad as Jones is, he is still likely the best QB on the roster, which is an indictment on the GM’s judgement. Going into the season without a better option is malpractice. Clean house.


So if he somehow plays the other 2 QBs he has their LT interests in mind. Neither one will be here next year. They both stink so whomever is playing QB has nothing to do with the LT.

I was up in the Catskills with my family for the weekend. Purposely got in the car at 1pm to drive home and listen to the game on the radio, rather than park in front of a tv and watch the misery. Watched the first half last night, and it was as miserable as expected. I think a big chunk of fans believed the win against PHL last season meant something. No sir, it didn't, another lesson unlearned. Even this PHL team, which is nowhere near as good as it was a year or two ago, NYG couldn't legit compete with them up front.
Trash  
islander1 : 10/21/2024 1:58 pm : link
not so sure I'm watching. probably still will.
I'll be there lol  
Route 9 : 10/21/2024 2:05 pm : link
...
We have three QBs on the roster and they all at best back up types  
Maijay : 10/21/2024 2:15 pm : link
So maybe we have a scout or scouts that can really evaluate the quarterbacks coming out this year and hope that Schoen/Daboll use that information. They pick one that is available to them and draft him.
Let Daboll and Kafka do their magic and the kid will lead us out of the wilderness and we will soon vie for a championship. I just love fantasy stories where the this happens but in realty we will screw it up. How's that for a positive attitude.

You're an idiot. At this point of the season DJ needs to be benched and never given a snap again because of his injury clause. Paying DJ next year is NOT a viable option. Try to figure that out if you can.
How can Daboll criticize Banks for not trying  
Mike from Ohio : 10/21/2024 2:16 pm : link
when he himself is not trying?

This organization has a losing culture and it starts with John Mara, Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll. Winning is nice, but there are other things that are more important.
Bozo John Mara needs to  
Doubledeuce22 : 10/21/2024 2:19 pm : link
sit down with Daboll and Schoen and tell them that DJ needs to sit, Neal needs to go in at either RT or LT, and all veterans that won't be here next year get benched for young player. Assure them their job is safe for next year if they win no games. Enough of this winning garbage games late. This team needs a QB in this draft. No way around it.
In a related note  
Mike from Ohio : 10/21/2024 2:22 pm : link
Brian Daboll also announced that the Giants don't give a shit about winning, or even trying to win, because there are some things that are just more important.
What does it matter?  
HomerJones45 : 10/21/2024 2:31 pm : link
Lock is out of here next year. He is no doubt sorry he ever listened to Schoen's bullshit and left Seattle in terms of his playing career. Financially it worked out for him, and I am sure Seattle will take him back. DeVito is going nowhere anyway. He's happy working a short commute from home. Anyone who thinks Jones is so much better than either of them, and that includes the soon to be former HC and GM, are grasping at straws.

Management can collectively bend over and kiss their asses goodbye. They were very satisfied to make a shit sandwich and they absolutely should stand there and eat. They had their noses rubbed in it but good yesterday, but apparently, not good enough. They need a few more games where the opponent is putting backups in at the end of the third quarter.
Maybe another

Primetime embarrassment will finally move Jones to the bench, permanently
I wonder if he's waiting until the Carolina game in Germany to make  
Tom in NY : 10/21/2024 2:34 pm : link
the switch.
It gets them an ocean/continent away from (most of) the media and an easier opponent to play.
Also, once they get that film on tape they have the bye week to work on any improvements for the remainder of the season.

This would be the move of a coach that knows he is secure for 2025.
I just can't believe the NFL is putting the Giants on MNF  
PatersonPlank : 10/21/2024 2:38 pm : link
and then sending them to Germany to try and increase their interest in the NFL. Thats amazing to me
