Some Chief fan said D Jones reminds him of Matt Castle
Some.decent plays
Some great plays
Some.really dumb plays
The reason he said were their eyes
Both their eyes are very close to each other and maybe that is why they can't  see the whole field at times
If you look.at them side by side you will.notice it
Who knows if this is true but it can be

ralph: I would like to say that I had not noticed that about Jones, but I've been aware of it since he was drafted by the Giants. I have no idea if the amount of distance between one's eyes is meaningful, but I suspect that it is.

The remaining question would then be whether a larger distance between one's eyes translates into any differences that are significant to playing quarterback.

Maybe another member knows the answer.

If Jeff Hostetler could do it, Daniel Jones can do it !!!

I nominate this one as the "Most Original / Thought Provoking Thought of the Day."

Mr. Ralph, you know what's next, right? Can you go back and provide some hard data on quarterbacks and see if you can prove your theory? One or two data points does not a trend make so have graph with statistically significant data for us and please let us know what you find.

Thank you in advance!

Peace!

I said years ago that he might have had an issue with his peripheral vision when he was getting sacks and stripped so much.
"There is a greater purpose...that purpose is team. Winning, losing, playing hard, playing well, doing it for each other, winning the right way, winning the right way is a very important thing to me... Championships are won by teams who love one another, who respect one another, and play for and support one another."

I have no proof but did anyone else think of this.
It might be a good tool
Just look how close the eyes are
It's uncanny

Not anymore uncanny than the Kelce's eyebrow overgrowth nearly impacting their lines of vision.

"Son, time to trim the hedges there before Jake from State Farm plants one right between your eyes!"

"Like a good neighbor ..." and all that stuff.

Peace!

I think his wins being too far apart are the problem.
