Big Blue Huddle

His emotional attachment to Eli & the team?

I realize that this should never get in the way of performance for a professional however there's a part of me that believes that he wants it SO BAD that he presses unnecessarily which has retarded his development.

I'm not absolving him of anything just a perception.

I've often wondered if a change in scenery would help him based on these facts, or whether it was simply an issue with emotional fragility.

I think of the great QB HC's like Walsh, Gibbs, and to a lessor extent Fassel and consider if any of them could've made a difference in his development.

When we missed the FG that would've put us up 13-7 with 28 seconds left, it looked like we went into a deep quarters/prevent defense.

Does anyone share my opinion that we should've played the same defense that stopped them all game?!

Or was this what they expected? (IE OLINE issues and little depth at OL & RB).

QB a surprise or point made?

Was this a point made for giving the baby (owner) his bottle?

I'm not trying to be overly critical here but Schoen/Dabol see to have too much collective football knowledge than to be caught off guard like this.

That being said, under John Mara's tenure this franchise has consistently under performed at OL & QB....yet, with what looked like a fresh start (the Schoen/Dabol regime), the "suggestion" that Jones hadn't been given a fair shot to that point, seems to have derailed what should've been a full rebuild to turn this team in the right direction long term.

Color me myopic. I choose to hold out hope for 8-9 wins this year.

The way I see it, our best hope at turning this season around includes Jones & the starting OL coming back healthy this week.

Between them, Barkley, and a developing Hyatt on "O" and the "D" continually improving, a turnaround is not out of  the question.

CONFIDENCE is the necessary intangible. How do they build confidence? Beating the Jets and the Cowboys.

So here are my invitations:

This Sunday having Coach Coughlin, Eli and Victor in the building.

Vs the Cowboys put JPP, and Jake on the team plane to Dallas.

Create that winning atmosphere and let's beat the teams who could most impact their psyche for the rest of the games down the stretch!

All is not lost!! KEEP THE FAITH!

Blocking and tackling.

With all of the talk of. DJ not living up to expectation, Saquon and Thomas and Ojulari, being injured again , and no deep passing game; (all valid concerns).

In the end, if they did a better job with their fundamental blocking and tackling; they would be in better shape than they are right now.

I hope that he's healthy and Schoen signs him. I have always believed him to be a solid OL.

Lord knows we could use him (assuming Johnson doesn't ruin him).

With all this talk around lack of protection and unmet potential along the OL....Whose calling out the OL Coach?!!

Why does it seem like he's getting a pass?

Where is the talk around other candidates for the role?

If I'm making personnel decisions, my sites are set squarely on him.

Am I wrong?

I realize the BUCK STOPS with the HC and Daboll deserves some real heat right now.

However, there are a few assistants (it seems to me) aren't really in the crossfire and IMHO deserve to be.

- Johnson for a real lack of development among so many young and heralded offensive linemen.

- McGaughey for terrible performances on all ST units.

- Wink for the poorest tackling since McAdoo's second season.

These areas all need immediate attention if we're going to have a prayer at a respectable season that finishes with the team headed in the right direction headed into next season.

Of waiting for this team to consistently play at full strength so that they can actually develop and improve?

Don't get me wrong, I understand that injuries are part of the game and in the past several years it's become more prevalent based on the size and speed of players today.

But can we catch a little bit of a break and have our key contributors spared?!

Sorry, just needed to get that off my chest.

I consider myself an objective observer (as in not 100% but hoping) of Daniel Jones.

Did anyone see the protection TB's OL was providing Mayfield?

I dare say that if we protected DJ like that (especially against that Eagle front) and had open receivers like that: he would carve them up!
