OT: Daniel Jones MVP

[jibsey]

I am an annoyed Giants fan. Been a long run of total crap. I always liked Jones and know he was not an above average QB but Giants did him no favors. Hope he plays well for Colts.

What I dont get is why not just play Dart now. Every other team does it. I know the line sucks but who can say they will improve it. They are going no where wit Wilson and at least Dart can get some experience and its not difficult to determine if you have something or not. And if they are going to "ruin" him he probably does not have that something anyway. Lets at least make the season interesting. Yesterday was just atrocious and uninteresting. Sick of being out of playoff race by October 10th but if we are lets take a look at future. Maybe they catch lightning in a bottle and salvage the season.

I understand your(my) frustration and would like to see Dart out there but… should he be exposed to the massive hits and body damage that will surely follow? Daniel Jones was absolutely hammered during his Giants career and frankly did well often enough even with that lack of protection.
Dart being young just wants to be out there and doesn’t care about that risk understandably but the size and strength of these defenders in today’s game is different IMO.
There was a reason Tom Brady was as great and successful as he was besides his throwing accuracy and it was that wall that allowed him to stand in the pocket, have a cup of coffee and survey his targets…at leisure. When he was pressured even he had problems but Belichek knew what was important and got him protected.

Nah, he was pretty awful. This revisionist history is hilarious.
