Shock Move: Ex-Packers QB Leapfrogs Daniel Jones on Giants Depth Chart!

21/11/2024 Raymond 0

Green Bay Packers General Manager Brian Gutekunst entered the 2024 NFL season with ambitions of reviving the team’s legacy as a “quarterback factory,” reminiscent of the days when Brett Favre’s backups—Mark Brunell, Matt Hasselbeck, and Aaron Brooks—went on to flourish as NFL starters. However, that vision remains a work in progress. Both quarterbacks drafted to back up Jordan Love were cut before the season, leaving Malik Willis as the current backup.

Meanwhile, former Packers quarterback Tim Boyle has carved out his own path as a reliable NFL journeyman. In a surprising twist, Boyle recently overtook $40 million starter Daniel Jones on the New York Giants’ depth chart. Adding intrigue to the Giants’ season, Tommy DeVito, remembered by Packers fans for leading a last-minute victory against Green Bay last year, has been named their starter.

Chaos in New York: Giants Players Reportedly Outraged Over Controversial QB Drama

The New York Giants have made a significant quarterback change heading into Week 12, replacing longtime starter Daniel Jones with Tommy DeVito amid a turbulent 2-8 season. The decision, fueled by a desire to end a five-game losing streak, has sparked tension within the team. Star defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence still views Jones as the team’s best option, while an anonymous player accused the organization of making Jones a scapegoat for deeper issues. Head coach Brian Daboll defended the move, citing DeVito’s ability to spark the offense last year. As the Giants prepare to face Tampa Bay, the question remains: can DeVito revive their faltering season?

Is Brian Daboll the Right Man for the Giants’ Head Coach Role?

17/11/2024 Raymond 0

As the New York Giants enter their bye week with a 2-8 record, it’s clear their season is all but over. With little to show for it in terms of wins or moral victories, the team is in need of a change. A quarterback switch, potentially replacing Daniel Jones with Drew Lock, seems likely, though it may be a move driven by desperation from head coach Brian Daboll. Despite Daboll’s efforts to put the team in positions to succeed, Jones’ repeated failures to execute have sunk the offense’s chances. After a series of disappointing performances and inexcusable losses, Daboll’s job security is now under greater scrutiny than it was a year ago.

While there are questions about Daboll’s future, his standing with ownership remains strong. Giants’ owner John Mara has emphasized the importance of continuity and rebuilding for the long term, a vision that was briefly derailed by last season’s unexpected playoff run. Yet, as Daboll faces mounting pressure, the true test of his tenure may lie in how he navigates the second half of the season, and whether he can turn things around or find answers through drastic changes.

End of the Line? Why the Giants May Finally Move On from QB Daniel Jones

14/11/2024 Raymond 0

Just a season ago, Daniel Jones seemed poised to lead the New York Giants into a new era, breaking a five-year playoff drought and posting career highs in passing and rushing stats. This success earned him a massive four-year, $160 million contract, placing him among the NFL’s highest-paid quarterbacks. Yet, what initially looked like a resurgence now appears more like fool’s gold. The Giants’ promising 2022 season gave way to struggles in 2023, with Jones’ performance slipping before a season-ending injury. Despite efforts to improve his support with new talent, Jones’ stats remain among the league’s lowest, leading the Giants to reconsider his role.

With $23 million in guarantees for 2025 still on the table, the Giants face a tough decision: continue with Jones and risk further financial liability or cut ties early to reclaim cap space. His durability is also in question, especially with a depleted offensive line. As the team approaches the 2025 NFL Draft with a possible top pick, Jones’ future in New York looks increasingly uncertain.

Super Bowl Rival Asked Patriots to ‘Let Us Know’ About Drake Maye Pick

The New England Patriots retained the No. 3 pick in the 2024 NFL draft to select quarterback Drake Maye, despite receiving numerous offers. Notably, their Super Bowl rivals, the New York Giants, expressed significant interest in acquiring the pick. This interest was highlighted during a conversation at the Scouting Combine between Giants’ general manager Joe Schoen and assistant GM Brandon Brown, captured for HBO’s “Hard Knocks: Offseason with the New York Giants” on Max.

Following this discussion, Schoen contacted the Patriots’ de facto GM Eliot Wolf to reiterate the Giants’ interest. Wolf acknowledged receiving calls from other teams but did not disclose the Patriots’ plans. The Patriots’ true intentions became clear when they selected Maye with the No. 3 pick, securing a potential franchise quarterback after Tom Brady’s departure in 2020.

Saquon Barkley Reveals His Thoughts On Being With Eagles’ Offense

Over recent years, notable tension arose between the New York Giants and star running back Saquon Barkley over contract issues, with the team appearing willing to let him enter NFL free agency. Initially, it seemed Barkley would join the Houston Texans alongside quarterback C.J. Stroud, but he made a surprising decision to sign with the Philadelphia Eagles, a rival of the Giants. This move could significantly enhance the Eagles’ offense for the 2024 season.

In Philadelphia, Barkley joins an already talented offense, led by quarterback Jalen Hurts and supported by A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Parris Campbell, and tight end Dallas Goedert. Barkley commented on his new teammates during OTAs, noting, “You get a huddle Day 1, and it’s A.J. Brown, DeVonta Smith, Dallas Goedert, Jalen Hurts…Not a bad group.” Despite past injuries, Barkley’s role in the Eagles’ dynamic and unpredictable offense is expected to bolster their NFC prospects significantly.

The New York Giants are making efforts to engage their fan base by sending celebratory gift boxes to season-ticket holders, featuring replicas of the franchise’s Super Bowl rings and a commemorative ticket. Despite these gestures, the team’s recent performance has been lackluster, with just one playoff appearance in the last seven years and a dismal regular-season record. As they approach the 2024 season, head coach Brian Daboll faces scrutiny amid uncertainties in the quarterback position and the departure of Pro Bowl running back Saquon Barkley. Nonetheless, fans hold onto hope for a potential resurgence in the team’s centennial anniversary season.
