Quote from: MightyGiants on September 11, 2024, 03:10:32 PMFor those not answering the questions but simply saying that DJ stinks, I have a question for you-  What does that say about Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen, who have had DJ as their starter for the past 3 seasons?

MG, The answer to the question I'd like but won't get is how much influence mara had on giving jones that contract. At the time I felt Schoen was ready to let him walk until he was signed. Although Schoen has not done a good job with his draft picks looking like a miss on 5 and a huge miss on 7. Banks, another first round pick also is not setting the league on fire and Schmitz is not looking good either. Dabolls play calling Sunday was mystifying. If you have that little confidence in jones which might be the case put one of the other not so good qb's in then.sundays game from an offensive standpoint was unwatchable. I though the line wasn't terrible but at this point Danny check down may be suffering from David Carr battered qb syndrome. Unless the team completely implodes to the tune of 2 or 3 wins I think both Schoen and dabbol are safe and will draft their qb in the next draft. once that's done they will get 2 to 3 years to seee how the new qb and the team progresses.This will be a long season. I thought they'd win 6 including last weeks game and this week in Washington. If they lose to Washington with the next 6 games upcoming all bets are off!           

If we lose to Washington and he stinks again they need to make the change for game 3. This team has too many holes to be going anywhere and god forbid he gets hurt we're stuck with him for another year which would be an absolute killer! If we win Sunday unless he looks a lot better I would still make the change. The other 2 qb's aren't any great shakes. I just want to make sure we're not stuck with jones for another year!

And to add insult to injury the nba just announced with their 2 minute report that maxey's 4 point play should not have counted as he walked before the foul and shot. What a collossal screw up by the refs!!    Where do the Knicks go to get their win they got robbed out of back?

Great win for the Knicks as Brunson just torched whoever tried to cover him. Put a fork in Philly...their done

5 yrs 150 mill 87 guaranteed

Igor him for a 2 and a 5. 5 yrs 150 moll

Very costly win for the rangers last night. Fox goes to LTIR with what is rumored to be a sprained MCL. I understand he has to miss at least 10 games. Chytil to IR with what is rumored to be a concussion which would be very bad news for him as it would be his 4th or 5th concussion in the last 2 years and if so will be gone for a long while. And last but not least Domingue brought up from the minors as Igor banged up and looks like quick may be the goalie for a little bit. Next time we play the canes AHO should call in sick as he will be a DEAD MAN!

Great recap Jaime. I taped it and will watch it later

Watching the preseason games it is painfully clear that we are a slow team. I wasn't a big fans of gallants drop the pucks and go get 'em boys coaching philosophy.Also, he let the veterans especially panerin run all over him. I think kakko takes a big step this season, same with Chytil if he can stay on the ice. Laf, unfortunately I don't see the speed or shot necessary for him to be a major plus and eventually be traded elsewhere. Glad cuyyle made the team and feel shortly Othmann will be joining him. Igor's numbers should be much better as lav will actually have the team playing defense. Miller is another key to take nother big step forward. Would like to see him a bit more physical with his big body and not so much stickchecking but it is what it is. I think we make the playoffs and once in with a goalie like Igor anything can happen. After watching my awful yanks and giants really looking forward to our rangers giving us a good season. We play 7 of the first 9 on the road including a long west coast trip. I think that will be good for team bonding and give a pretty good indication of what kind of season we're going to get!

Well said bob!

What new stadium?? What did I miss??

After last years statement from Mara about accountability and its playoffs or bust after the last couple of horrible years if he doesn't change both the coach and GM he will have lost a lot of credibility in my eyes and I suspect most giant fans. This team is a disaster with a severe lack of personal and a coach that has lost his fastball blowing games earlier with his clock management and personnel decisions and yesterday watching OBJ implode and seemingly not understanding what was going on if his postgame comments are to be believed. I don't. I think he simply didn't want a confrontation with his star player and when that happens its time for you to go as the inmates are running the asylum.

Am I the only one who thinks 13 mill for Brett Gardner is a bit pricey?

I feel another championship coming this season to send the captain out the right way. 

Simply stated it was a pleasure to watch the greatest NY shortstop in baseball history perform on the biggest stage in sports for 20 years. The fact that he never had a cringeworthy moment in his career was just a testament to the kids class. It will be a long time if ever that we see another player like him anytime soon and i look forward to his first ballot hall of fame coronation in July 2020.
