The New York Giants are 2-7 on the halfway level of the common season and their playoff hopes are all however dashed. Regardless of that, there will probably be few modifications.
It would stay enterprise as traditional in East Rutherford, and that features Daniel Jones staying beneath heart because the group’s beginning quarterback.
“He’s,” head coach Brian Daboll stated when requested if Jones would proceed because the starter. “Nothing modifications.”
Whereas that information comes as a shock to some, particularly contemplating the monetary implications ought to Jones get damage, it shouldn’t. He performed his finest recreation of the season in Sunday’s loss to the Washington Commanders, amassing 228 whole yards and three mixed touchdowns.
These numbers would have been much more spectacular had referees not referred to as again a Wan’Dale Robinson landing (OPI) and his receivers didn’t drop 5 passes (solely three have been formally counted).
“I believed he did a pleasant job. The week earlier than I believed he did loads of good issues. Once more, once you lose, it doesn’t really feel like all of that. However he made loads of good performs for us,” Daboll stated. “He had the batted ball, we had Malik (Nabes) behind it. A pair different balls that have been form of proper off the guidelines of a few guys right here. However I feel he executed the offense nicely and gave us a possibility.”
Whether or not sticking with Jones is perceived as the right resolution or not, Daboll has been agency and trustworthy in regards to the group’s plans. He’s by no means moved off the notion that DJ will proceed to start out as long as he stays wholesome.
Nevertheless, ought to Jones lay an egg in Germany towards the Carolina Panthers, issues might then turn out to be topic to vary.
