Quote from: DaveBrown74 on November 27, 2023, 07:06:09 PMIt's hard to imagine getting this emotional about the likes of Tommy DeVito in the midst of a 4-8 Giants season.

You're not from NJ, are you?

and he does a heck of a snow angel.

Quote from: Woody on November 27, 2023, 05:11:08 PMI don't know a whole lot about the Quarterbacks on the list .....but ima e watched Maye a few times.   Not impressed.
Williams real deal seen him a few times.....Bo Nix for me!

that was posted Oct 31st. Maye's star has fallen since then. At this point in time, I like Daniels and Nix. That will possibly change after this weekend. I love the skills in Calib but he's no good for NY. JJ moved up my chart.

Quote from: Jclayton92 on November 27, 2023, 04:22:17 PMJones is not a good qb, he wasn't at Duke, and he hasn't been in the NFL. You can't develop someone that's lacking everything mentally to play the position he plays. Yes he's tough but beyond that he can't process, and still habitually makes the same rookie mistakes.

I'd argue Jones was so bad he made the offense look significantly worse than it actually was this year.

Still, I would like to see what Andy Reid would do with DJ.

Quote from: Bob In PA on November 27, 2023, 05:01:33 PMDB: Wait a while on Robinson. I saw examples of the type of plays they plan on using him for in the future.

It's something that has been missing from the Giants for a long time.

They could use Saquon for the same plays but he attracts too much attention from opponents (for good reason).

I predict you'll change your mind about Robinson before the end of this season. Crossing my fingers.

Bob

They need to get this kid in open space. I've seen him flash and I like what I see. I would like to see him in a weight training program after the season and add ten pounds and then he could be a beast.

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on November 27, 2023, 03:31:38 PMAgreed. And yet the Pats' coaching staff apparently thought an aerial based attack made the most sense in this game.

Interesting.

Very interesting.

The entire Defensive Interior. No arguments from me. All three were abysmal.

Quote from: MightyGiants on November 27, 2023, 01:02:07 PMIf Tommy D proves he has what it takes to be an NFL backup QB, consider the following

2023 cap hit

Tyrod Taylor-  $6.9 million

Tommy DeVito-  $0.750 million (if he was on the roster the full season)


$6.9 million can bring in another solid starter at many positions

If he beats out all comers they should give the kid a nice bonus.

I was hoping Tommy would have shown some improvement this last game, although BB was disguising coverages and blitz packages. It was a lot for an inexperienced QB to absorb. Also Kafka didn't do him any favors. It almost seemed like they want him to experience all of it. Saquon standing on the sidelines was surreal. Man, if they can teach him the TT quick release, it's a game changer. He just may not have the ability but we shall see.

The loss of Dex was deflating. It's incredible the amount he contributes to this Defense. Clearly Gettleman's shining moment.

Quote from: coggs on November 27, 2023, 12:59:20 PMI honestly thought Vilma was going to call down to the Patriots sidelines to tell them to run the ball up the gut every play.

I'm sure. But he's been unbiased and spot on with his observations. I like him. Not saying you don't, just that he's so much better than most of the others.
