By giving him that contract the Giants will now have to try to compete in the playoffs for the foreseeable future with a QB disadvantage.

Welcome to the club.

Almost every post has missed the point Jennings was making in the video. He says Jones has progressed, and thinks Jones will continue to progress... and next year will be the #2 NFCE QB behind Hurts. He is not comparing their careers. He is projecting an opinion out to the end of next season.
It is a bit of a stretch, but not outrageous. Jones did have a better QBR and Passer RTG than Dak in 2022, after all. And, he did it behind one of the worst OLs in the league.
NO its completely outrageous. To discount their entire careers is laughable. The is the first year Jones has even remotely resembled a competent QB by any stretch. And the reason was clear. He had Barkley running wild and no one was paying attention to him. He still cant throw the ball. All he can do is take off with his legs. Its all he has ever been able to do.

In his best season as a QB he threw 14 TD passes. Thats your Jones right there.

Guys produce with bad offensive lines lol. Bad offensive lines don't stop you from producing. This is some weird narrative that people make for some reason. Same as "He didn't have a QB but he still had 1k yards"....you can have a bad QB and put up stats. You can't win a SB with a bad offensive line though. You can't go further in the playoffs without winning the trenches.

Moore wasn't fired. And Linehan sucked. HE was fired before he got here and got fired after he left here.

You can't even compare the two. Moore left after we won 12 games lol. Daniel Jones is getting guys after winning 5. How can you even compare the two lol?

I'm a realist here when it comes to this whole Dak discussion. Not a troll or whatever. If you sat here and told me you don't like Dak or Dak sucks....you wouldn't get an argument from me. I can only be so realistic about this discussion and there is absolutely no comparison to Dak and Daniel Jones careers to this point. We complain about Dak not getting further in the playoffs. Daniel Jones can't even get to the playoffs until this year.

You're trying to spin a different narrative then the one I've seen. If Daniel Jones was better would guys have gotten fired? Yes or no?
Agreed. The Moore move had less to do with Dak and more to do with McCarthy wanting to call his own plays. To be honest I was surprised Big Mike kept Moore when he took the job three years ago.

A QB contract is not an excuse to not build a winner. They actually have a good coach they will be alright.

Dak and the Giants and its not even close. Daniel Jones on the Cowboys would be worse than with Cooper Rush. Daniel is better but his skillset would not work here in Kellen's offense because they wouldn't utilize his legs. Daniel Jones as a pocket passer? :laugh:

Buddy if you agree that Jones is better than Dak than you havent been watching either of them play the last 6 or 7 years.

Honestly, its laughable. And this has nothing to do with Dak. Jones sucks. If you or Jennings cant see that then thats your own problem.

Clearly this is meant for click bait and you actually believed him. LOL
Clearly, you have no reading comprehension. I have not given my opinion on the rankings of the qb's. I have only responded regarding the fact that jennings statement was not anti dak, and that it is a valid opinion.

He made a projection for this year. It is viable opinion that daniel jones will be a top 10 qb this season

By the way this will be jones 5th year. Dak is what he is, we will see what jones is the next few years compared to Dak. Even though he might end up being a giant failure, remember that Jones now has 1 playoff appearance, and a few years to catch him

Admittingly, Jones. But now we are comparing supporting casts, not quarterbacks. The Cowboys won 12 games, the Giants won 9. So it is safe to say either Dak or Jones would have won the same amount of games as the guy they switched with.

Agree on all the above. I'm guessing the only reason he was allowed to even let him go was the back to back 12 win seasons. Probably bought Mike the ability to make that call. I knew that wouldn't last long....hell I didn't think it would work as well as it did honestly. I was completely wrong on that I did not see Moore and McCarthy working well together and making the playoffs back to back years when he was hired.

Like Greg Jennings, I just watch them and know.
Maybe the Cowboys just watch and know too. Bet they know more details than you or Greg Jennings. At least Jennings has a reason to diss us. He’s chumming for click$.

There's nothing more crippling than a QB contract. If you pay someone not worth that money you have severely hurt your team's chances to win anything.

I have no issue with anyone who makes that claim. I Just question what they have seen. Don't get me wrong Daniel was good at times last year but I thought since the bar was so low we all agreed he was good based on what we thought he could do. I never thought people thought eh had a high ceiling. But I've heard the Josh Allen comparisons...which...he's overrated himself but I guess that's for another discussion.

I think Daniel Jones is pretty good. He's tough and he did a good job last year without much help as far as wide receivers go. If Dak is the giants QB last year, do they still make the playoffs? Maybe, maybe not. I'm not convinced either one is better than the other.

Im not dissing anyone.

Dak and Daniel Jones are both solid QBs. Very similar at throwing the ball but you have to give Jones the edge because he’s a way better runner than Dak.

Neither guy is worth their salary and will make it nearly impossible for their team to win a championship because they got next man up paid instead of actually being legit.

You just said Jennings makes a great case. LOL
If you dont agree with Jennings than shut up about it and stop defending his laughable take.

It is viable that daniel jones will be a top 10 qb this season
:lmao2::lmao2::lmao::laugh::laugh::laugh:

Sure buddy, Jones is a top 10 QB now. Lets just move on. I cant waist my time with this kind of laughable nonsense. And thats being very very nice in how I can put it.

To me comparing Daniel Jones to Dak last year when he got hurt is like comparing Michael Gallup to Noah Brown. Sure Noah Brown had better stats but gotta put some context in there. Gallup was battling from a injury just like Dak was. Dak had a down year. We're comparing Dak at his worse to Daniel Jones at his best and quite frankly I'd still take Dak. The offense was still producing at a elite clip even with Dak's turnovers. Let's also be honest on what Dak did last year. He threw picks. Picks are bad. I get it. You take those picks away and its not a bad season. HE had a bad season for his standard because of the picks. This wasn't a Jameis Winston 30 TD's 30 interception season.
