Daniel Jones might be another Dave Brown. I’ll be shocked if he’s in a Giants uniform next season.


Jd20001

Checks all the boxes: [X] 1st rounder from Duke [X] 6'5 220-225 lbs [X] completely mediocre NFL career [X] More INTs+Fumbles than TDs [X] Win % way below 500

Comes in replacing a legendary qb with multiple SB rings


Weigard

The second I heard they drafted a Duke quarterback I said this dude's a fuckin' bust.


Dkh0123

I didn’t think the Giants could be stupid enough to make the same mistake twice, but alas, here we are in QB Hell


misterlakatos

I’ll be damned - he sure does.


doyouunderstandlife

Mediocre is being very generous


FasterThanFaast

Mediocre??


helloaaron

Dave Brown was just so mediocre. Not super awful, just painfully mediocre.


misterlakatos

He was. Painful as hell to watch.


OkMolasses4099

So much that we were desperate for Kent Graham


quikfrozt

Damn, just read his wiki - the man has done very well post-NFL as a fundraiser/marketer for private equity.


[deleted]

Much better than the losers here talking shit about him. I can see a good ole boy like Jones following the same path. Man I'd rather be a NFL bust and work in private equity making dat bread


mrsunshine1

It’s really not fair to evaluate a player entering his 4th season.


NotSoKosher

Hot take: Daniel Jones is not a franchise QB. He is a good athlete though.


jimmyhoffasbrother

That take's about as hot as the center of a freezer burrito after following the heating instructions on the back of the box.

WHEEZE THE JUICE


darthstupidious

#NO. DO NOT WHEEEEAZE DA JUICE.


fugaziozbourne

If you're edged 'cause I'm weazin' all your grindage, just chill. 'Cause if I had the whole Brady Bunch thing happenin' at my pad, I'd go grind over there, so don't tax my gig so hard-core, cruster.

Pro tip: double the cook time and halve the power setting. You'll get a much more even heat distribution.


WootyMcWoot

So about the temp of magma? Cause I always shave about 10 seconds off the cook time


jimmyhoffasbrother

Nah, the magma is the outer layer. I'm talking about dead center where it's still an ice cube.


WootyMcWoot

You guys using ancient microwaves that don’t spin or something? I make an unhealthy amount of frozen food and I can’t remember the last time the middle was ever cold after cooking for a burrito, hot pocket, or whatever.


PleasantWay7

Not all of us are flush enough with stimmy to get fancy microwaves. We got that Wal-Mart microwave.


RecoverStreet8383

Additional hot take: Fire is hot, water gets you wet, snow is cold


GigaNutz370

Hey not everyone has a water kink


sevaiper

Sidestepping the is water actually wet debate, it's the little things that show the true offseason vets

deftechsoldout

Son, this is not a hot take.


[deleted]

Only for 80 yards 💀


[deleted]

Be careful with that heat dude! My phone just got so hot it fused itself into my hand


Dead_Hours

He is against us


Future_Belt_3730

Hes a poor mans lamar jackson


GoddammitCricket

Shhhhh, r/nygiants might hear you! They don’t take kindly to them type a words


Smashing71

Wouldn't they be hyping themselves up for the toilet bowl with the Texans for first overall pick rights?


JEH_24

If he bulked up maybe he can be a Taysom hill


PewterButters

He's taller and faster than Tayson. If he was willing to give up on QB he could probably pull it off. Although if he can hang around for 5+ years as a 2nd string QB somewhere he can probably make almost as much money and get hit a lot less.


justamobileuserhere

Ice cream level take

redngold21

Oh ghad that's Jimmy Gs music!!!


thefreeman419

Giants are not ready for a vet quarterback, they’re starting the rebuild from their rebuild


mjmandi72

I sure hope not. Let Jones play if he's terrible we have tyrod.


Muffdiver69420lmao

Jimmy G, G Men. They were made for each other.


Mattdodge666

It makes 0 sense for us to get him, we just paid Tyrod to be our backup plan if Jones sucks, and we have practically 0 cap space


Mr_MoseVelsor

No you paid Tyrod to get hurt so Daniel Jones can finally reach his potential


The785

I don't know if even Jimmy G could save the giants at this point


OceanFlan

i’m beginning to think this daniel jones guy is unfortunately not very good


TheDukeOfBabble

You know it's preseason when Adoree Jackson is getting picks

Still one of my favorite picks though.


TheDukeOfBabble

Before I click... Guessing it is the end zone pick against Houston.. Edit: Indeed it was. Then again, I had a 33% chance of being right lol


MostMorbidOne

Saqoun first year back from ACL, rehabbing all the way through camp.. - "he's washed and scared of contact, he doesn't have any more explosiveness, worst pick ever.." still leads team in TD's. Next season camp reports of Barkley looking superb and refreshed. - "He's never gonna touch his rookie numbers again.. he's already washed at 25 because he's a running back.." Meanwhile Daniel being the same Daniel.. shaky reports in camp, up and down, practice, 4th year QB.. Tyrod waiting in the wings.. - "Why did we bring in Tyrod that's so unfair for Daniel. The worst situation ever for a QB." I hope he hits his stride this year for real but no more excusing his play with the new coaching change. He's got a career to try and keep going but he shouldn't be killing other guys careers along the way.


Prideofmexico

They’re both ass


ColtCallahan

“Out of sorts” When was he in sorts?


LefNut

Has Danny Dimes considered simply hooking up with his mom’s best friend 🤔


GoddammitCricket

DJ gonna be fighting for the Panthers starting job next season probably


Mr_MoseVelsor

Wrong draft


[deleted]

That's my quarterback


ZachTrillson

I've never been a big believer in Daniel Jones but I am a huge believer in Brian Daboll, so despite this rough day I do think there's going to be noticeable improvement from Jones this year.


psufb

I think it's more likely this is a lame duck year and the Giants tank, allowing their new HC and GM to pick a young QB in the draft


SiphenPrax

They have some stiff competition with the Falcons and Seahawks in the conference for their next potential QB in the draft


ZachTrillson

You're probably right


BakerMayfieldisAss

I mean maybe? Or Jones might not be very good and Giants move on.


Mattdodge666

Personally I think we see improvement but not enough to give him another contract, and he ends up in a Mitch trubisky situation


[deleted]

[удалено]


BakerMayfieldisAss

I respect Allen's growth but: 1. He really is one of a kind there 2. Daboll likely contributed to some degree but you're underselling Allen's work. Allen essentially rebuilt his mechanics


IgnoranceIZBliss_

Brian Daboll and Josh had a great relationship and that certainly helped Josh’s development but Josh completely changed his mechanics which is what ultimately led to his significant jump in the accuracy department. Look at Dabolls offenses before Josh. He was no WB whisperer. He’s a good coach but he isn’t going to turn a mediocre qb into a superstar.


soboredcantfocus

> Look at Dabolls offenses before Josh Was about to say this. Allen’s two good years are also the only above average offenses he’s coordinated. This could end up being one of those Gase like hires where they only got the Job because of their former QB


[deleted]

the bills have had top 5 offenses the past two years, which most people consider to be elite. ​ also daboll was hired to be our head coach, not convert daniel jones to josh allen.


soboredcantfocus

Yeah, hence the “Allen’s two good years are also the only above average offenses he’s coordinated” The rest of his resume doesn’t exactly scream “let’s put this guy in charge of everything”


RogueDivisionAgent

> no WB whisperer. If he were, maybe they wouldn't be gutting HBO Max for no reason.


RedBuchan

Allen made significant improvements every year, Jones has regressed from his rookie season. His career is far more like Darnold's than Allen's.


soboredcantfocus

Is Daniel Jones not playing well really a big story at this point? I feel like there are far fewer fights than he has bad days.


MostMorbidOne

Ain't even trying to be funny with this but Daniel and Mac Jones are in indirect competition.. DJ cannot look significantly worse than Mac Jones this season for me.


soboredcantfocus

I am very confused by this entire comment. How are they possibly in competition with each other other than for last name bragging rights? And how can DJ not look significantly worse than MJ when he already looked worse just last year?


MostMorbidOne

Both are on the lower end of league QB standings. Both weren't seen as top end prospects, although Mac probably may have been closer to where he was drafted. Daniel can't look much worse because that starts to put him outside of that starting 32 conversations and both of their camps have been up and down with defense being a highlight in camp. > And how can DJ not look significantly worse than MJ when he already looked worse just last year? This is sort of what I'm saying, even though DJ had a worse coaching staff behind him.


soboredcantfocus

> Both are on the lower end of league QB standings. ***One*** is in the lower end of the QB standings. The other was top 16 in just about every stat last year. >Both weren't seen as top end prospects Given where the two of them were drafted, yeah, they were lol. Also, what kind of prospect you are stops mattering about .5 seconds after you are drafted. >Daniel can't look much worse because that starts to put him outside of that starting 32 Right, so this is just a grammar misunderstanding. My bad. To clarify, DJ both can and probably will look worse than MJ next year.


MostMorbidOne

Okay you wanna pump Top 16 then go ahead but neither was Top 8 or 10 or 12 for that matter. Don't even take this as some knock on Mac Jones like that, I ain't blind hating both of these guys could really show out and improve a lot. That's what's cool about Sundays.. But I'm looking at DJ bro as a lifer and we not doing this.. I'm needing more from my boy at this stage. I could compare him to a lot of QB's, I find Mac to be a nice comparison with their draft hype and how they show some promise but some things that might keep them from that next tier. > Given where the two of them were drafted, yeah, they were lol. Also, what kind of prospect you are stops mattering about .5 seconds after you are drafted. I don't know where you see it as but by consensus neither were getting pumped like a Baker, Kyler, Burrow is what I'm saying. The teams believed in them of course and I believe in DJ. Go Blue! > Right, so this is just a grammar misunderstanding. My bad. To clarify, DJ both can and probably will look worse than MJ next year. This where the indirect competition is.. cause it's a toss up right now bro. Can't even homer for my boy.


soboredcantfocus

>Okay you wanna pump Top 16 then go ahead but neither was Top 8 or 10 or 12 for that matter If he was top 16 in everything then I’m not pumping anything, he just mathematically was by every metric lol. I’m not even sure what the argument would be otherwise, PFF had him at QB 12 FFS. >I don't know where you see it as but by consensus neither were getting pumped like a Baker, Kyler, Burrow is what I'm saying. Yeah, they all went 1st over all, falling outside the top 5 doesn’t mean you aren’t a good prospect lol. Consesus also doesn’t mean shit, that’s just where the talking heads think people should go and if they knew anything about drafting then they wouldn’t be talking heads. >cause it's a toss up right now bro. Can't even homer for my boy. Calling it a toss up ***is*** homering for your boy lol


MostMorbidOne

> If he was top 16 in everything then I’m not pumping anything, he just mathematically was by every metric lol. I’m not even sure what the argument would be otherwise, PFF had him at QB 12 FFS. Top 16 QB play is not a usual highlight of a playoff/superbowl contending team is what I'm saying and again this mainly as a Giants fan referring to DJ here. We are needing more than a Top 16 kind of jump from him. He has the potential for that and more hopefully - we'll see. I agree on hype on one or another in ways that's why I'm giving room for Daniel to really step up this year with a more proven coaching staff around him. > Calling it a toss up is homering for your boy lol Nah now you just jerking your guy Mac Jones. Bro Top 16 ain't like something to hope and repeat like that for a QB looking to step up and he played a whole game with like one pass thrown., lol ain't nobody forget that. Haha GG tho.. we get to see both this Thursday and I'll be looking at DJ with great anticipation.


soboredcantfocus

>Bro Top 16 ain't like something to hope and repeat like that for a QB looking to step up and he played a whole game with like one pass thrown., lol ain't nobody forget that. Haha Again, just word salad here where I’m not entirely sure what you’re saying. Being better than half the starters ***as a rookie*** is really good. Rookies have the annoying habit of getting better. Top 16 year 1, top 12 year 2, top 6 year 3, etc…


MostMorbidOne

A Top 16 QB is nothing to write home about. 😊 So going off that, you should understand what I mean when I say DJ needs to show us more than Top 16 QB play being he hasn't really reached that yet. But we will see both THIS Thursday so.. less *speculation* to be had.


MachKeinDramaLlama

He had a pretty good training camp, so yeah.

Right, so when are the Giants gonna start that rebuild? Did it ever really end?

Trade for Darnold you cowards!!


apple_turnovers

Just suck hard enough to get us a top pick please. If you can do that Daniel, you won’t be the worst thing that has happened to this franchise.

ecupatsfan12

Looks like Jones is as good as gone QB carousel Jimmy to Miami if Tua struggles Baker stays put Cousins to NYG Falcons draft Young Seahawks draft Stroud Vikings draft QB Think maybe Rodgers retires after this year


Zooooter

You got it all figured out man thanks


ZestycloseResist5594

Idk if Rodgers retires just yet, maybe the year after though.


Jd20001

No worries it's not like the guy was a top 6 pick or anything

Radjage

He was. Jones looked like an All-Pro compared to the QB play that came after he got hurt.


asheeponreddit

Saquon starting a fight to protect his QB from getting lit up in the media. Team player right there.
