I’m sorry but this abysmal performance is all on the #Giants Brian Daboll. Dislike Daniel Jones or not, just look at what Sam Darnold is doing on the other side with Kevin O’Connell.
Saquon Barkley definitely doesn’t have the explosiveness he once did, this run in the Divisional round should have been a home run and it wasn’t. #TogetherBlue
Daniel Jones is 32nd in explosive passes, he’s also:
1st of 56 in On-Target % (81.0%)
51st of 56 in Poor Throw % (12.2%)
17th of 56 in Pass Dropped % (6.5%)
3rd of 64 in QB Rushing 1D (57)
…oh and he’s playoff bound.
Regarding the extend Daniel Jones debate - while he has played better this year, I just want to point out that NYG is:
- 32nd in explosive passes (30)
- 1st in bootlegs (88) but 36th(!) in ADoT on boot
- 3rd in play action use (35.2%)
- 7th in RPOs
- 5th in explosive RUNS (70)
The #Giants Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll didn’t lose the locker room because they benched Daniel Jones, they lost the locker room because he was willing to waive his injury guarantee to continue playing and they still demoted him to 4th string QB.
#Giants fans argue Daniel Jones doesn’t look like a franchise quarterback because the passing yards aren’t there while discounting his rushing stats.
At the same time praise Lamar Jackson; who has 606 more passing yards in 16 more games and averages 174.4 pass yards per game.
I have never felt better about where this #Giants organization is and the direction that it’s heading. Call me a homer, a shill, a Daniel Jones stan if you want but I am the most excited I’ve ever been for a season.
You can argue last year, I’m gonna enjoy this year! #NYGiants
Saquon Barkley rookie season:
261 rushes 1307 yds. 11 TDs
91 catches 721 yds. 4 TDs
One of the greatest rookie seasons by a Running Back 👏.

#Giants fans hated Garrett as a playcaller, we saw Daniel Jones ONE game with a new playcaller, resulted in a win versus the Eagles.
Fans said that Glennon would put up 30 points, then they anointed Fromm as the savior.
Maybe Jones isn’t the problem, that’s all we’re saying.
