OT: Football thread (2024 season)

[LionsHeart]

Just when you think enough teams have their QB situations locked up going into next years draft, suddenly there’s problems all over the league.

 

[sbjnyc]

Oh no, Jayden Daniels is good. This is a terrible development.

How many times has the #2 QB been the better choice over the #1 QB taken? Thee are the QBs taken 1 and 2 over the last 25 drafts. I highlighted who I think has been better.

Couch vs McNabb
Luck vs RG3
Winston vs Mariotta --> Mariotta was good until his injuries
Goff vs Wentz ---> Wentz was an all-pro before he got hurt. Goff is like Darnold
Lawrence v Wilson ---> No brainer but Lawrence is 0-8 in his last 8 starts - is he any good?
Young vs Stroud
Caleb vs Jayden

It's still early for the last 2 but so far this seems right.

 

[NickyFotiu]

This time a few seasons ago Mac Jones was thought of as good as well.

 

[NickyFotiu]

Giants vs Cowboys tonight but its on Prime. I picked a bad time not to have Prime

No way Wentz was better than Goff. He had one good season and the team won the Super Bowl with his backup putting up big numbers.

You don't need to go whole hog Prime. I gave up my Prime membership because it was too expensive for what little it was giving me. Since I was mostly just watching movies, I instead subscribed to just Prime Video for $8.99 a month. That allowed me to watch the Jets last week, though since I'm in NYC, it was still on locally.

Thanks. I did not know that. Ill look in to it.

19 flags on the play

There's no flag on the play.

 

[Bob Richards]

The facemask call is one of the more baffling calls I have ever seen lol

 

[Boris Zubov]

Jones blew it there. Had Slayton wide open on the free play.

 

[Bob Richards]

Jones blew it there. Had Slayton wide open on the free play.

His deep ball is just non-existent now.

 

[Boris Zubov]

His deep ball is just non-existent now.

Even the long completion to Nabors in the 1st qtr was a horrible lazy throw. If he throws a rope, Nabors gets 15 more yards on that play.

 

[LeetchisGod]

How was Deonte Banks a top ten pick?

 

[sbjnyc]

That was a fumble.

 

[NickyFotiu]

I wish they replayed it on a screen so the NYG fans and coaches would have started screaming. One of the worse calls I have ever seen and they even discussed it. Refs are humans that make mistakes but that was nuts.

 

[Boris Zubov]

Has there been a flag thrown on every play here in the 2nd qtr?

 

[17futurecap]

The NFL should be embarrassed by this.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

Too bad the Giants don't have any good receivers.

I'd trade Slayton right after the game.

 

[Bob Richards]

Welp, still can't beat the cowboys

 

[17futurecap]

Jones not being able to throw a ball more than 10 yards is brutal, Giants probably should have won that game. Defense was good, hopefully Nabers is okay, he's a joy to watch.

 

[Brutananadilewski]

It wasn't a well thrown ball...but Hyatt, what the f*** was that?!

And Nabers concussed.

Just burn it down. Throw in the towel. Get those picks and move whoever you can.

Enough.

 

[SnowblindNYR]

How was Deonte Banks a top ten pick?

Um, wasn't he in like the 20s?

 

[SnowblindNYR]

For years I heard that Daniel Jones isn't bad it's his lack of receivers and terrible O-line. Now he has maybe a top 5 receiver and his line blocks their hearts out (pass blocks). Dude might be the worst starting QB in Giants history.

Nah he's not even in the top 5.

Scott Brunner, Joe Pisarcik, Danny Kannel, Kent Graham & Dave Brown all say hi.

Everyone knows 'entire history' means 'for as long as I've been watching', aka Jones is worse than basically Manning lol
