The Blame War Continues: Everyone Thinks Daniel Jones Took A Shot At The Giants Coaching Staff For Saying Everything Was 'Next Level' At Minnesota
I've seen this going around and quite frankly I hate it. Is it a shot? Yeah, probably. But, again we're talking about the Vikings who make every quarterback look good apparently. This however, is the never ending blame war between Daniel Jones and the Giants. Jones was the scapegoat because the offense looked like shit, he never took that next leap people expected him to and eventually made his way out.
Now? Now we know that Daniel Jones looks awesome at Indy through 5 games. But it's just that, it's 5 games. Can he continue it? Of course, we've seen weirder shit happen, but the fact that people are taking victory laps saying it wasn't Daniel Jones fault is insane. He was bad on the Giants. I don't know how you could argue against that. Obviously part of that is the line, the lack of weapons consistently around him and of course, the play calling. But I also saw this man not be able to throw a ball past 20 yards last season all while falling over himself running in the open field.
My point is it's a divorce that had to happen. It's probably similar to the divorce that's going to have to happen between this regime and the Giants. They got us a guy we all believe in with Jaxson Dart, but this is going to be for the next group to come in.
I'm done caring about Daniel Jones. It's reached Saquon territory for me. I'm happy to have Jaxson Dart as my quarterback. Let Daniel Jones do whatever he wants in Indy, but saying he would have done this in New York is just wrong. Both things can be true. So if he's going to take a shot, like everyone thinks he did here, at least acknowledge that he was awful too. Now, I do agree with him that there is some sort of attention to detail lacking with the Giants. We make some of the dumbest mistakes on both sides of the ball. Part of that has to fall on coaching, no matter who is running the show there.
Now let's go win a goddamn game tonight. Or at least not embarrass ourselves like we typically do on primetime games. Baby steps.
