Quote from: andrew_nyGiants on November 26, 2024, 08:55:08 AMTo your point Woody from the first time he took the field as a Giants QB he was never a back-up, never asked to compete for his job, and until now, he was never benched.

This goes back to his rookie year.

Drew Lock was under the impression that he would compete for the job, is that what you recall? I think in retrospect, that would have been a good decision. Jones would have likely won the job but it would have established the distance between the three QBs. Of course Lock was injured and that still would have killed the plan. However, if it did take place, this whole magilla would have gone down smoother. That aside, when Lock replaced Jones in the second half of that game in October, he should have started Lock the following week. Then if he failed, bring in Tommy. I wonder why he didn't do that, but it showed lack of confidence in both backups.

Yes Ed!

My biggest gripe with Schoen/Daboll is that it appears that they believe eating the Jones is who we're building around scenario, they never bothered to build a REAL QB ROOM.

It's almost as if they were either following marching orders to the T, or they mean to rub the QB  disaster in Mara's face because they believe they have a bogey this year and feel like the can finally start the rebuild.

Either way, we the fans are the ones paying for this mess!

From Simms to Eli (with an assist from Hoss) our Super Bowl Quarterbacks. Great defense and clutch QB performances...NY Giants Championship football.

I have an old profile still floating around: andrew_nyg....I am one and the same!
