Orlovsky knows his football!
Jones is in his 5th season and currently playing the worst football of his career, no excuses.
Evan Neal's initial comments were exceptionally childish and stupid on a massive level. His initial apology is a start but as a start, it is analogous to warming up with thousands of other runners shortly before the gin goes off to start a marathon. He has a tremendous amount of distance to cover to come back from this but unless he can learn how to get out of his stance and in position to pass block, he won't be around long enough to come back from this.
He should be conciliatory but he also needs to learn how to do what he was drafted to do.
It would help if the staff would allow for the line's shortcomings with play selection.
I realize Jones missed a few reads Monday (but there was no hot read on the corner blitz as it was a slot corner who blitzed with no slot receiver opposite him) but the staff is doing him no favors.
On one play, where Peart was in as an extra Blocker, the block call had Peart, Neal and McKethan all block down (the player to their left) and LeMieux come around from the left guard spot to cut off the speed rusher aligned opposite Peart (he didn't get there). If they just had the linemen try to block the guy lined up against him it would make a ton more sense. We outthink ourselves far too much.
It's just bad all around. The line is bad, Jones is making bad decisions/throws, the WRs run horrible routes, whoever is calling plays is awful, and Daboll is scared and never aggressive on 4th downs anymore. FGs were never gonna win this gameThis offense is actually laughable
I mean everyone knows the offense is bad, add waller to this list, horrible drop on a TD today, but the offense is playing with the practice squad o line and made the foolish choice to bring Barkley back instead of investing that money elsewhere so if you're surprised you shouldn't be but the defense is healthy and Wink is showing why he was fired in Baltimore, guy is either too dumb or too arrogant to understand his commitment to cover 0 is killing this team.It's just bad all around.

the Pats being worse is the only saving graceJones, Taylor doesn’t matter line is beyond putrid. Add to it their penalties never good timing. Line coach and Kafka keeping their jobs? Daboll looked up at the booth in disgust a few times on the play calling.
Defense was awful too. Wink not pushing the right buttons either.
What an awful team, only the Pats may be worst
Could be the biggest matchup since the super bowls. Can Daniel Jones pull a reverse Eli and rip out Pats fans heart?the Pats being worse is the only saving grace

Beyond the fact that which team is worse is still open for debate, how is this a saving grace?the Pats being worse is the only saving grace

despite SB XLII and XLVI, Giants fans north of Fairfield County get tired of our Patriot friends, neighbors and colleaguesBeyond the fact that which team is worse is still open for debate, how is this a saving grace?
Yep Jones may not be the guy but the Giants have failed him, both things can be true.Peter King on Mad Dog today about Daniel Jones:
“No QB that ever played in the NFL would be successful behind the Giants line. 28 sacks and 85 actual pressures in 5 games is the worst ever. Not saying Jones is the answer but I can tell you there’s no way of telling behind this line.”
Agree, fair!

Do you care about the Giants franchise getting better or do you care about winning a narrative. I gave Danny Dimes credit last year and im calling him out this year. I call it like I see it not a Jones homer or hater.He’s been sacked 28 times. Sam Howell has been sacked 29 times. Howell’s QBR is 9 points higher and his passer rating is 15 points higher.
People were saying Danny was in Jalen Hurts’ echelon on QB’s. The line has been complete, utter garbage, DJ hasn’t been much better.
I’m like, specifically calling it like I see it. I don’t think Howell is a good QB by any stretch of the imagination, but he has looked a good bit better than DJ.Do you care about the Giants franchise getting better or do you care about winning a narrative.

Sam Howell has taken so many sacks because of how long he holds onto the ball and fails to throw it away. Do me favor and look at time in the pocket. Of starting QBs Howell has had the 8th most time in the pocket in the league. He has taken over 10 sacks with longer than 5 seconds in the pocket which is more than double any other QB. Jones is 30th in pocket time.
This is like you saying Tyrod playing 1 full drive down 16 at the end of the 4th against a prevent D looked better than Jones. Your understanding of the game is at its lowest level.
