Yeah I’ve been saying for weeks now the nightmare scenario in my mind is losing to Dallas (expected) and then ****ting the bed against NO, setting up a must win in week 18 against a Divisional opponent. As an Eagles fan I’m less than thrilled about the prospect of having to beat the giants for the second time this year in the last week of the year.
Not with the way Minny and SF are playing today. If both scores hang on, then giants can't play anyone but one of those 2 teams in round 1
Yeah I think your right ....
But again, zero reason for the Giants to play their starters at all.
Will be interesting what they do. Coughlin played the starters in 2007 in the last game and that worked out well for them against the best team in the league.

Yeah sitting the starters never works well ... Last week I actually heard that the Giants will not sit the starters if they clinch. The way they ran Jones today when the game was well in hand is a clear indication that they will not
Do you have evidence of this? Sitting starters is pretty common and I'd guess those teams don't 'never' win. I'd say it works more than it doesn't if you look at first playoff game W/L record of teams who had clinched and rested them.
kind of cherry picked his post, are you worried about us playing starters next week?
Nothing to do with if I'm worried. My point is simply that they are going to rest their starters. He believes the opposite and says there are clear indications that they will not do this.
I stand corrected if he does actually end up doing that.
Yup some coaches just have the mindset to always play your starters no matter what. Belichick was the same way. How many times did he have Brady throwing the ball deep in games where the Patriots had a huge lead? It also looks better for their overall record to get an extra win. Personally I would bench the key players (especially Barkley and others who are dealing with minor injuries). If healthy, I would not bench Jones. He needs to stay in rhythm.
Calm down dude. I literally just admitted I might have been wrong.
Absolutely awesome!
In the next NFL draft, the consensus Top 3 QBs probably won't last beyond #7. To get one of them in THE NEXT DRAFT, you want to be close so you don't spend as many assets on the trade-up, if an opportunity arises. My question is not "can they get a good NFL player" because that largely depends on depth in the draft, which depends on the position. QB is rarely ever deep where you can get a franchise QB in the 20s-30s. We all know why Lamar Jackson was still there at #32 despite plus athleticism and a strong arm.
@Uruk-Hai , agree to disagree. There's no benefit to making the playoffs when it's going to be a quick 1-and-done and we won't answer any questions about players that we don't already know/have an idea about. If this was a situation where the D was largely intact and Saquon was 100% healthy, maybe I could see how the young defenders play in a tight playoff pressure situation. Or maybe if Daboli finally says "eff it, we're going full Josh Allen and see how Jones processes/does". But he won't because he knows Jones can't make that leap beyond poor man's Ryan Tannehill/homeless man's Jimmy Garoppolo. At some point Kakfa's just gotta throw Daniel Jones to the wolves and see if he can process/see what he's learned.
As an Eagles' fan, i can't say this is wrong. Still amazed at how far this Giants team has come under Daboll with the lack or receiving talent.In the next NFL draft, the consensus Top 3 QBs probably won't last beyond #7.

Daniel Jones draws 'MVP' chants from fans, praise from teammates
Daniel Jones draws 'MVP' chants from fans, praise from teammates
As New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones left the field late in the fourth quarter on Sunday afternoon, an unfamiliar ring could be heard throughout the stands. "Dan-iel Jones! Dan-iel Jones! Dan-iel Jones!" In between those syllables, another phrase could be heard…giantswire.usatoday.com
it's an interesting article, and hard to figure out what the bert course of action is.
Gotta love Big Dex! I can remember watching him play in high school
I was. Jones isnt as bad as either of those two. Brown, in particular, was awesome. At throwing a pick six. Once a game. I never understood it watching on TV. Back then they’d do summer camp in Albany. Close enough for me and friends to make a day of it and attend the session(s). It was then it finally dawned on me. I was sitting behind the offense on day and Brown threw the out… it had zero pace. I swore, I could hop the fence, run the twenty or so yards and intercept it myself. No zip. At all.the ball just hung in air. The cornerbacks must have salivated.
It's weird it's like you are stuck in 2021 yet you have somehow seen 5 years of Jones??yep, I remember the classic Dave Brown screen pass Pick sixes where the minute he threw it out, you the viewer was going "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
Again, I hope maybe Daboli unlocks something in Daniel Jones in 2023 because it's trending right now that he'll get a one-year deal (hopefully for cheap). But right now we're in Year 5 and we honestly still don't know if he can be a competent NFL quarterback, much less one that can go out and win a game by himself. It's a Hell situation to be in and the Ginats braintrust has to make the right call because screwing it up can set the franchise back half a decade.

This season has proven that he can be competent.yep, I remember the classic Dave Brown screen pass Pick sixes where the minute he threw it out, you the viewer was going "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

Same with me ... I did not want the Giants to draft a QB and wanted Josh allen there.This season has proven that he can be competent.yep, I remember the classic Dave Brown screen pass Pick sixes where the minute he threw it out, you the viewer was going "NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"

His passer rating is 92.5 – 13th in the league
His QBR rating is 60.4 – 9th in the league
He has cut down his turnovers a ton
He has also added 700 yards of rushing with 7 rushing TD's
This coming from a guy who thought that the Giants should have drafted Josh Allen (LB) instead of Jones in that draft (and was very mad about them not doing it) and rolled with Eli one more season (I didn’t like any of the QB in that draft)
Rember those days as well as the Joe Pisarcik and Scott Brunner days
