Against one of the better defenses in the league, with a patchwork OL that got shuffled again after more injuries tonight, with the same receivers, at the very worst, TT looked just as good as DJ

But imo he is more poised, and looked better, plus he was able to take some shots downfield.

How did he have time to throw when this OL has been so historically bad?

I just don't see enough of a step up to warrant the extra money spent on Jones

The offense scored 9 points with Barkley back and Hyatt having a presence which freed Slayton.

He blew a chance at points in the 1st half and at the end of the game.

How was he a difference maker?

From Simms to Eli (with an assist from Hoss) our Super Bowl Quarterbacks. Great defense and clutch QB performances...NY Giants Championship football.

I have an old profile still floating around: andrew_nyg....I am one and the same!

He wasn't. His YPA was under 6. He had a running game. And the OL played very well in the second half. Defense gave him short fields all night.

Tyrod ran the offense way better simple as that.

He didn't have a running game supporting him. Saquon had two big runs on a single drive that distort the average. For the vast majority of this game the Giants couldn't run the ball effectively. Don't know how you can watch that game and claim otherwise.

That's more than Jones has gotten all year. They had over 100 yards. Most all year by the RBs.

Not really. He made a few nice throws. But again. 6 points against a team missing its two best defenders. The play at the end of the half was the worst play made by any player in football all year.

Oddly, the makeshift OL played better with Taylor out there. Nothing to do with the QB, though. <sarcasm>

Yes, Kent Graham is an improvement over Danny Kanell it seems.

It just highlighted how mediocre and overpaid Jones is.

Bingo. In the land of the blind the one eyed man is king.

Is this game and indictment of how bad Ezeudu is as well? After Pugh got settled - he was light years better than Ezeudu.

The question was not was TT a difference maker, the question is in the name of the thread.

For that salary they could have signed a G, and upgraded the depth from guys like Peart and Lemieux, and maybe something on the defense
