Big Blue Huddle

I watched much of the Seattle game this week. Love is definitely starting for them so far. Maybe that changes as Adams comes back. Another thing PFF is wrong about.

Felato and Schneier are not cheap shot artists. Calling them that even by insinuation is pretty beyond the pale. Disagreement is fine. Character assassination is not. Critical analysis that they provide is vital for honest assessment. Listening only to those totally associated with the team is not the right way to go about things.

We all have listened to Banks for some time. This is a guy who defended the Joe Judge staff until the very end. So he has a history of defending what shouldn't be defended. He works for the team and contorts himself to defend Jones. I trust film guys who willing to say what is obvious even when it makes the team look bad. Jones does what is safe. It may even be what is textbook. But he doesn't make the tough plays against good teams. That is as clear as night and day. The Niners were mocking him for this and knew they could just get him to throw quick to Campbell and make the tackle. Other teams know it. We need to stop pretending otherwise.

I think this used to be true, but the injuries have taken their toll. I don't think he has the quicks to win in the slot anymore.

The solution is better pass protection and more Hyatt. We need to get the ball downfield. Good teams are overplaying these short passes.

Banks and Papa contort like circus performers to excuse Jones. Papa was much harsher on Eli than he's ever been on Jones. I stand by my assessment. Other defensive coordinators see it that is why teams like Dallas and San Francisco are just killing us on these short passes that Jones throws far too often.

I firmly believe the most apt comparison for Daniel Jones is Alex Smith and you can win with him. However, you won't get to where you need to be because he is too timid of a QB. This is a very deep QB class coming up. I believe the Giants should trade up for a QB. Start Jones next season and let the QB learn behind him and then move on. Or let Jones pursue a trade. That is the best way forward to build a team that can compete to win a Super Bowl.

No pushover. But a team ore in our weight class. Dallas and San Francisco are just above where we are now. This should be a close game. They are very similar to us.

He's being kept as a leader to mentor Hyatt. There is a reason his locker is where it is. This more valuable than a 53rd guy who would replace him.

There is no way the starter of this thread knows what they claim to know.

That product is of questionable legality by the looks of it. I'd be careful.

A lot of hotels have Prime on their tv service. Do a 7 day free trial and then cancel. It won't be on NFL Network until after midnight.

Im at a hotel in Eagles country .... will be all week.... I have prime but Hotel Wifi is not great ..would be pissed if it buffered all game.... Although the channel lineup is weak it does have NFL Network ...

I didn't know him, but my deepest sympathy to those of you who did.

He had more than one one drop and struggled to get open at all. The coaches didn't bench him because they had it out for him. He just doesn't separate well enough.

He's dependable to be in the right place. And he's a try hard guy. I don't see the separation. I believe Hodgins replacing him was a key part of the passing game getting better towards the end of the season. I think the staff shares this opinion as they did not activate him for several games the 2nd half of the season.
