Big Blue Huddle

I haven't seen the play today but I can't imagine how that's possible given where the ball was placed.

Hyatt was wide open halfway down the field and DJ missed the opportunity and lofted the ball so the coverage caught up. Plus it was a bad pass and not on Hyatt. The game call and coverage for the Giants has been atrocious and this is what you get with two crappy teams.

Quote from: Bob In PA on November 06, 2023, 03:36:09 PMuconn: As you know, that is typical rookie stuff. It could also be an awareness of how little he knows about the offense, which, to me, is a very positive sign, not necessarily a liability. If he does the same in his final game this season, then we start to get worried, IMO. Bob

A turnover by Hyatt, a drop by Slayton and Hodgins, and his stats would have been comparable to O'Connell. He has a lot to learn and he's probably never going to be a starting QB in this league but it's interesting that Daboll sees something in him to keep him.

He needs to sychronize more with his receivers speeds and movements

But we might have something for the future in Tommy

just an observation

I would think that he starts against Dallas because Barkley would get sacked 12 times against that pass rush. Unfortunately for Tommy. It's pretty clear the kid is still learning and a work in progress. I think Schoen should bring in another PS QB. Just in case. 

This may have been a blessing in disguise for Daniel Jones. His passes were so badly off, that I wonder if he wasn't fully recovered. Necks and Spines are not to be messed with. Tommy DeVito took a couple of hits that may have had catastrophic effects on DJ. I don't know if that medical staff can be trusted.

I always think back to Ron Dixon when someone plays on an ACL. Hopefully, for DJ there wasn't any extensive damage that will end his career.

A tough way to go out and he has to be very frustrated. I'm sure he will do everything he can to rehab and get back on the team ASAP. He's a tough kid and a credit to the organization as a leader and gentleman.

 

It's official. DJ to IR with an ACL.

Take away some pre snap identification issues and a under thrown deep ball,  Devito performed pretty well.

Devito was accurate, quick release, has some mobility, and shows some Jersey swag. If the Offensive Line can continue to run block well,  I think you can be competitive on offense with Devito.

Be interesting to see if he gets the nod going forward. #NYGiants

He was second in the league with 3.34 time to throw. He did his part to increase that time too.

Looking over the solution I am perplexed. Category for "record" LP, PLATTER, VINYL, WAX

WTF does "WAX" have to do with record  In my entire life, I have never heard someone call a record, "wax"

I didn't either. It was my default pick.

Quote from: Bob In PA on November 06, 2023, 09:37:37 AMRich: I was already aware of this view (especially as pertains to McKinney). It will be interesting to see if the Giants/Schoen/Daboll will "go old school" yet again with THIS issue (i.e., trade him) or actually listen to what the player has to say.  In 21st century pro ball it is my understanding from people in-the-know that you at least listen and you do not "punish" (in any sense of the word) a player for speaking up in the context and manner as McKinney just did.

The problem I have with this is he went public and that's a Tiki.

So what happened to Thibs this game? One tackle. Was he hurt?

Quote from: EDjohnst1981 on November 06, 2023, 09:13:50 AMNo, clearly he wasn't good to go back in. I wasn't intimating he was. All I said is I read a report where he was asked if he was good to go and that was that.

He should have been held out a series so he could have had a more comprehensive evaluation.

Maybe the overriding factor was not to lose this game and it blinded Daboll but I doubt that. He relies on the word of his medical staff.

Time for Dabs to do a TC soul search.
