  1. I really don’t see the point of grading individual players in arguably the most ‘team’ sport there is.

  2. And yet, his biggest supporter Tiki Barber said after this game, he now knows Daniel isn’t the guy and doesn’t have “it”. Can’t lead a team or show up in big moments. While the 12 weirdos on this sub continue to scream and shout that he’s good.

  3. Someone show me his W-L record for his career?

    Someone show me his W-L against teams above .500?

    Someone show me how many games has he had where he doesn’t throw a TD?

    Someone show me how many games the offensive hasn’t had a TD with him at QB?

    Oh but he hit a bunch of short passes so we’re good. FUCK WINNING, just hit short passes all game like the defense wanted you to.

  4. He was really good, other than the deep balls. Idk what happened, but he can’t throw deep to save his life this season

  5. Game manager, not a game changer.

    He can be the highest graded player all season, don’t mean shit if he isn’t making game winning plays.

  6. The narrative has already been set with fans and social media, just read these comments. DJ could go 300+ yards 4TDs 0INTs but if the Giants lose it’s all his fault, bench him and draft somebody else.

  7. This is gaslighting at its finest. I watched the game and that’s a fucking lie. He is the player with the biggest capability of changing the outcome of the game and he missed several throws that would have won the game. No other player had this influence on the game and let the team down. I would argue he should be one of the lower graded players.

  8. If he keeps playing as good as he has been I want to see him as the QB again next year. This QB class sucks and no free agent QBs intrigue me. I’d like to see him a year after his ACL recovery

  9. Who cares?

    Guy didn’t and can’t make the plays we need a QB to make to win games.

    And he consistently doesn’t. If he grades out high off dinking and dunking, it’s irrelevant.

  10. I guess with a bunch of 5 yd completions your percentage goes up. The Giants offense is like watching paint dry.

  11. He did some things well, better than what we have seen recently BUT and it’s a big ass BUT he sucked throwing the deep ball, and those were our chances to win the game. The end.

    He is not the only one that had fuck ups but I’m tired of waiting for him to get better. It’s been exhausting.

  12. I mean based on how pff grades it makes sense but ultimately Jones misses on the type of plays in each game that can change the complexion and momentum of a matchup. He also can’t win you games with this style without perfection from everyone around him. Hes a perfect fit for the pff grading system with how he plays right now. A great short pass game manager

  13. PFF is but one metric that has its flaws. Jones played well enough to not lose, but he missed a TD or 2 due to his lack of deep ball. Hes not a guy who will go out there and be the main reason you win- he’s a below average QB and I fear his 2022 year is his ceiling. He’s a level or two below that level of play now and I don’t know if he’ll ever get back there or exceed it. He’s a game manager now and we’ll live with him for this year. However, I truly think we need to move on from him if we’re to become a consistently winning team again. He’s just not it and this is year 6. Nothing against the guy, he’s nice enough and has given his all- but sometimes it’s just not good enough.

  14. I’m an admitted DJ doomer. I know he’s not a stud or game changer but he absolutely doesn’t deserve all this shit for week 4. He was not the reason we lost that game. In fact, he put us in a position to win and the team failed him. I don’t think he’s our long term answer, but acting like week 4 was a bad game for him is asinine. Downvote away hiveminders but I’m not wrong

  15. At this point we have to assume these are posted by Dallas fans. Anyone not in a coma can tell DJ isn’t an NFL quarterback.

  16. People talk about his short passing game, but even there, his WRs are not getting it in stride many times. You can not build an offense on just YAC. The offense also has to play perfectly because DJ can not overcome adversity, especially if he struggles outside 10 yards and is abysmal beyond 20. Without Nabers, DJ would look even worse. Not to mention the oline, which gave him an avg of 3 seconds to throw.

    DJ is a top-tier backup but a mediocre starter. Can he get his arm strength back? Who cares. It won’t be this year, and we will cut him in the off-season.

  17. I don’t care what his grade is, he can’t keep missing open receivers by 10 yards. Dude can’t control a game. He had good o line play too.

  18. so we even care how he grades anymore?

    like he isnt the answer and hes gone after this season

  19. Daboll deserves most of the credit for this. People complain about playcalling whenever an offense underperforms but I think it was pretty clear that Daboll was scheming guys wide open all night long.

    He just doesn’t trust his QB at all and I find it hard to blame him. That’s why they kicked all the field goals.

  20. But he under threw 3 passes!!! That must be the sole reason we lost!!! Just draft the next mahomes it’s that easy to fix!!! Arghhhh!!!!
