Simple. Eagles (both games). Saquon. Anyone want to bet on it? Bob

Mr. Banks is an honest man put (too often) in the difficult position of having to criticize the people who pay him.

I for one believe he is SENSATIONAL at his job.

If you listen very very closely to each and every comment (especially during games), not only to the words but the tone and tenor of his voice, you'll hear him calling the balls and strike as fairly as any judge (and he's a really nice man, the kind of guy any fan would love to hang around with). He does soft-pedal the criticism... but he NEVER avoids it. IMO a truly undervalued member of the Giants' overall "team" of employees.

Quote from: AZGiantFan on Today at 10:07:18 AMI think their fate is primarily tied to the OL rather than to Jones.  However, if hope wins out over experience and the OL DOES improve to average or better but Jones doesn't perform they will finally, after 6 long years, get the definitive answer on Jones.

AZRich: I'll NEVER disagree with a post saying OL is more important in the NFL than QB.

It's five guys who make up a "mini-team" that controls the ball, the clock, the score and the play-calling.

This year is shaping up (barring injury to Jones) to put my long-standing theory to a rigorous test.

PS. I originally forgot to include the word "NEVER" in the first sentence. lol

Both of you are correct with D.

In any offensive interference, the offensive team cannot gain or benefit from it, so there is no way the runner can advance, he has to go back. Since the batter caused the interference, no matter whether intentional or not, there has to be a penalty for the interference. In this case, he is declared out, and, as I said, the runner goes back.

(They DO have gear with that awesome 100 Seasons logo so I snapped up a t-shirt.)

I have the Cap coming.

Another good thread reverting back to Jones. What is it with everyone, must everything be brought back to be about him?

When has anyone that is an actual giants fan in this forum rooted against Daniel Jones? Ever...

If anything Daniel Jones being great would make everything significantly easier for the football team.

Do we now also think that the people that believe Neal is horrible are also actively rooting against him as well?

So "insert player" is bad, so the fan base must be actively rooting against him?

You hear more about Jones than other players because his play hasn't elevated year on year with his pay.

People thinking Jones is a bad Qb and rooting against him are two very different things. Most people that are actual Giants fans acknowledge how bad he's been then when the whistlebl blows are locked in on the Giants and Jones winning.

And, like the cop knows exactly who is in the car and what weapons they MIGHT have. It may seem like an ordinary traffic stop to some, but maybe the officer cares to come home to his wife and kids and wants to be extra careful.

I think any cop's job is difficult enough then to have people, whomever, not obey their orders.

Wow, much better than the usual cap, scarf, etc that isn't much of anything.  And yes, my tickets went up $100 per seat, but I think it was because there's nine home games and one preseason instead of 8 and 2

In other news, season ticket prices have increased to cover the cost of the mementos.
