If the Giants lose tonight, should they permanently bench Jones?

Would you be in favor of benching Jones for the rest of the year if they lose in Pitt to fall to 2-6?

So you will move on from a back up QB making 40 mil a year if, and only if, a generation talent at QB falls into our lap and/or we're picking 1st in the draft.  :-??   :hmm:

Are penalties and drops unique to Jones. And do not bring up Eli ; it has nothing to do with Eli. We've had multiple QBs play here and they all resulted in losing games for many years now. eli did in fact play on some bad coached teams and bad football teams toward the end of his career I am not convinced Jones has though; at least not this year.

Still throws more TDs in a half aat Metlife than Jones has in 2 years, A 40 year old playing the Jets!

Fletch

Then there was this play that instead of being a TD resulted in a touchback. I guess that means Rodgers gets a pass on throwing anymore TDs in Met life for like 2 years?

Quote from: Messiah717 on November 01, 2024, 12:33:40 PMIt absolutely isn't.  The guy doesn't have a TD pass in four of his last five games.  He hasn't thrown a TD pass at home in two years.  It's quite frankly friggin enough already.

And THAT'S your excuse for denigrating posters on this board?  That's just nasty.
I'd rather be a disappointed optimist than a vindicated pessimist.

It doesn't matter 

Jones isn't the QB next year , he has consistently shown he doesn't have what it takes to manage a game consistently , yet alone win a game.

Trade or get a qb but jones flounders presnap and post snap consistently . 

The season is over and so is jones addition for the 2025/26 season

No I don't agree.

Jones will be here. If these posters are not Mara's cronies themselves or just stubborn Jones supporters; I can almost assure you this is how Mara is thinking.

The forum rules are clear, personal insults are not welcome. The next one cast will be suspended.   Fletch, Messiah, on notice.

What was the insult?

Crony is....
: a close friend usually of long standing : pal
played golf with his cronies
often, specifically : a person who unfairly receives special treatment

Stubborn is unreasonably or perversely unyielding : mulish

Clearly you're too dense and stubborn to take a step back. We'll help.

Denigrating by saying burner account lol?  We have admins of the board having personal arguments in threads but I need a public warning.  Absolute joke.

Your approach to cleaning up personal attacks is to personally attack the guy?

Clearly you don't agree with my moderation methods.

Ideally, we'd like to deal with everyone the same. Unfortunately, not all infractions are the same and you've been here long enough to know some people are habitual line steppers. A respectful warning was given and that was his response.

The moderators have been pretty hands-off knowing that tensions and emotions tend to run high here. But when a moderator steps in to lower the temperature or take pre-emptive measures to keep things from escalating, they need to be heeded, not defended.

I don't agree with that method and I think it's beneath you. You can redirect the person or even suspend the person without insulting the person. It's just adding to the culture for better or worse. But your fellow mod seems to agree with you that personal insults are against the rules, with the exception of when mods are enforcing the rules, so at least you all are aligned.

I've been on this board long enough to know you're an excellent contributor and probably the most fair of the mods. That's why I was surprised to see what you wrote and felt the need to push back. It's just my two cents and probably not even worth that much.

I respect and appreciate your view.

He was given a respectful request to check himself. Sometimes people like that need to get what they give.

To your point, it's not the norm, nor will it be.

It's not a warning, I am not a mod (and wouldn't want to have that thankless job).  It's my opinion.
