The New York Giants are going to sink or swim with beginning quarterback Daniel Jones it appears.
Sink is extra prefer it.
After shedding to the worst protection within the NFL within the Carolina Panthers in Munich on Sunday, head coach Brian Daboll was nonetheless not satisfied that Jones was his greatest hurdle to success.
“Clearly, we’re not the place we wish to be,” Daboll informed reporters after the sport. “We’ll consider issues within the bye week, do the issues we have to do. We’ll observe a pair days subsequent week and consider every part.”
After Jones stunk up the sphere in Munich, what’s left to judge?
Don’t get us incorrect. Some Giants followers like Daniel however in addition they like profitable. And he’s not a winner. The Giants are 2-8 and going nowhere quick. Jones has a profession file of 22-44-1. Is that defendable on any stage?
Bear in mind, that is Yr 3 of the Daboll and basic supervisor Joe Schoen regime. They’re speculated to be competing for the postseason not the No.1 general decide in subsequent yr’s draft.
Jones was embarrassingly terrible within the first half of Sunday’s sport, hanging onto the soccer too lengthy, and lacking out on alternatives for giant performs whereas misfiring to wide-open receivers on others.
But Daboll admits he didn’t even entertain the notion of benching Jones. He’s put an excessive amount of work into him the previous three summers. It hasn’t been sufficient.
“I’d say we’ve obtained lots of work to do right here within the subsequent few days, within the subsequent week,” he stated. “And we’ll consider the place we’re at and what we have to do.”
Might that result in a change at quarterback? The Giants’ quarterback room doesn’t precisely give followers the nice and cozy and fuzzies, both.
The prospect of getting Drew Lock or Tommy DeVito below heart seemingly has Daboll hesitant. It might even be a sign that he’s surrendering the season and that’s simply not in his nature.
