It was not tipped! It should have been a TD.

Seriously, what's up with the lol? My 8 year old ends his text that way.  This is an adult message board, it's really not needed.

Quote from: Bill Brown on October 08, 2023, 01:56:45 PMYou can bitch about the QB all you want but this TEAM cannot block and this TEAM cannot tackle. The two very basic fundamental of playing football. No team can overcome those two factors.
agree . this D not tackling well is THE biggest disappointment so far. not blocking well on offense and poor talking long season

Sometimes, there are good defensive plays. The defender was able to grab Waller's arm and pull it away, he's good at his job. Unless you suggest Waller should be able to curl the defender with one arm whilst falling and trying to catch a football.

Had the ball been throw more downfield, Waller has a better chance at the catch.

Of course it should have been. It landed right in his hands. Then the defender knocked it loose.

Defense lacks gap discipline in a big way, but when they get 3 t/o' and score a TD it's tough look at anything but an offense that didn't score a TD (again).

So the defender made a great play?  Thank you for acknowledging that and not blaming anyone.

Waller had a chance to make a play in a 50/50 ball. Got both hands on it. And lost it.

So like I said before - we don't have good players. Good players score there.

Thank you for proving everything I said.

How about that vaunted run game today? Jones fault, right?

How about the anemic passing game?  Just gonna ignore that fact?  You don't win in the modern era with a strong running game; you win with a strong passing game. Just ask the Kansas City Chiefs.

Absolutely.  I wish Jones had taken more shots like that targeting receivers down field.

He lost it because it got knocked away not because he dropped it. 

The Giants don't have a good QB that's for sure and you can't win in this league if you don't have one.

I get it Jones had another bad game and you want to deflect to others and ignore his play and that's fine.  Better get used to the idea of Jones's time on this team winding down after the 2024 season.

Let's face it, we have 2 back up QB's. tank and let the coach and gm draft their guy, then if we continue to suck, maybe clean house again! remember, last year we easily could have won just 4 games!

You win with talent. The giants don't have it. Even the great chiefs ran the ball with great success. We can't run. We can't block. Our WRs are f'n awful.

Yeah I'm ok replacing Jones. But we are still gonna suck unless the talent gets immensely better. The OL has tanked in the bottom third for the last dozen years. Our defense gave up over 500 yards in 3 quarters today.

But keep focusing on ONE player. I'll bring more balance to the board by focusing on the other underperforming players.
