Or did Giants intentionally release that news TODAY merely to change the subject (from the team's utter incompetence yesterday)? If so, I still think Jones will not start.

I say this ONLY because I know the owners, management, etc., are NOT so "tone-deaf" as to be unaware what people would say about the TIMING of the announcement.  Really?  Are they that "tone-deaf?"  Even if there was motive and the timing was not purely coincidental, I suspect some other motive, not that one.

The timing makes it even WORSE!

What happened to gamesmanship and keeping the opponent guessing until the last minute?

Like I said, PANIC!

This stinks to high Heaven of a PANIC move.

It also sends a terrible message to the locker room. "If they need me bad enough to H3LL with my health"

Is Daboll unraveling the way that Judge did a few years ago?

I think there were a few reasons Daboll held back with the kid.

1) it's a good bet he had no reps all week
2) inexperience with an OL that was overmatched in pass pro.
3) the driving rain by the time he went in.

I'm not saying DeVito is any good, I'm just saying we still haven't seen what he is.

The defense played their collective A** off the whole game. The fact that it even got to OT was not on them.

I'm not going to even quarrel with Daboll's decision to kick the FG. I made it abundantly clear to my wife, the tv and the neighbors at the time when I was screaming "GO FOR IT...END THE GAME!!"

There was a big miss at the end of regulation. The refs never officially spotted the ball before the Jets lined up for the spike with one second left. Also there is no way you can complete a 30 yard pass in the middle of the field in 8 seconds.

We'll be hearing about "errors" later this week, but it won't change the outcome.

Both of them. They hung up on him while they were crying that he had no right to tell them "how to fan"

Quote from: DaveBrown74 on October 29, 2023, 05:27:13 PMI think it's tough for fans to get excited about an individual performance within one hour after a gut-wrenching loss. I can understand the reaction myself.
I get it.

But as a 53 year diehard I've learned to appreciate the building process and identifying the players who can contribute to our turnaround.

It keeps me sane on afternoons like this.

Really?!

So you take no solace in the fact that there are players on this roster who have the ability to elevate the team?

It's one of the few things I can appreciate about this team.

I decided to make a nice Arribbiata in celebration of the kids touchdown!

I wonder how those WFAN guys feel about the way they treated Carl now?

Bad field position + below average offense = no points.

My logic for going for it was:
A) it was less than a yard.
2) We aren't going to have many RedZone opportunities today.

I'm probably in the minority, but I'm excited about the future of our OL.

- LT Thomas
-C JMS
-RT Neal

Barring major injury I see these 3 as the core of what could become a very strong OL.
