However I'm racking my mind to recall a QB who had a mediocre career and was trending downward after 5 yrs in the league, then turned it around.   Maybe Geno Smith

Can Daniel Jones follow in Geno's footsteps.  Maybe but I doubt it.  And we had Geno on the roster

Im fairly certain we have seen Jones as he truly is..... We made a mistake.  Admit it, rectify it. No one should be given 5 years of failure and then

We let Geno walk after the whole Eli fiasco, and let the HC- Ben MacAdoo, who had recently taken us to 11-5 go instead.   now it appears Tommy DeVito will be lost like Geno was.

I can see another conundrum coming where Jones does not improve and another HC walks the plank for his QB decisions.

I hope I'm wrong.  I truly want to see us back in the hunt this year.
Jones did not have five years of failure. He had a stellar rookie season throwing for 23 TDs and rose to 5th in the league in QBR until his offense disintegrated around him. In 2022, he led his team to a road playoff victory. The other years were marred by injuries as well as pathetic OL play and a very mediocre WR crew.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on May 28, 2024, 07:19:51 PMWhy create the thread then?

Just curious.

Why? It wouldn't be hard to guess, but would it really matter? On the other hand, it might be more interesting to think about prepping Linguini with Clam Sauce so it tastes more like Spaghetti Bolognaise.

Cheers!

While you may see some trash on the sides of the road, you rarely see bottles or cans because Maine has bottle and can return.  If people throw those out others will pick them up to get the money.

Funny video.  I like how the judge is smart enough to wait until he had stopped driving before talking to him.  I am not sure I would have been that composed to think about the safety issues.

Quote from: Jolly Blue Giant on Today at 01:02:22 PMThe only way Giants trade DJ is if they draft a "ringer", or think they have one. DJ's the man until a proven replacement is in hand. Sooo...might as well root for DJ to have a good (even great) year this coming season, cuz he ain't going anywhere without a better replacement...and we don't have one

He didn't run as slow as many say
