SmittyBacall Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 It is inexplicable to me how difficult it was for WFT to generate pressure. Like, completely illogical how one of the leagues best DL could barely compete against one of the leagues worst OL. Danny Jones had free reign all night. Are Thursdays just notoriously weird for defenses specifically? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no idea how he ever got that reputation. Chase Young's best move in college was squaring up the tackle with leverage, then collapsing inside if the quarterback was stuck in the mush. He is very good at quickly recognizing that stationary quarterback who gets caught inside. The problem in the NFL is that scenario doesn't unfold nearly as often, and Young's repertoire is not special enough in any other area.

That seals-jones touchdown made it an odd score. Carolina-Houston next week feels like a great chance for a tie! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations to WFT fans on breaking the streak. OH. MY. GOD. This 100% is a phrase I started to hear in the Dallas forums over a decade again. So much so, that I started using it myself. The common denominator? Jason Garrett. Yeah...he's not your Head Coach yet. Well, he wasn't initially our Head Coach, either. He was just our under-qualified OC under Wade Phillips that wormed him out of the position with a season worth of shotty play-calling. Coach Judge is a dead man walking unless he DDPs that daywalker on his ginger head. Edited September 17, 2021 by ///mcompact 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Are Thursdays just notoriously weird for defenses specifically? THU night games suck for everyone and weird things always happen. Players are only on 3 days of rest instead of 6. I bet it does a lot to their routines. However, I am a believer in Danny Dimes. I think the Giants next off-season need to invest ever resource they have into the OL and give him a real shot. He makes really impressive throws the majority of the time and he has practically played the last 2 years with 0 run game and 0 offensive line. If the Giants get rid of him this off-season I bet he could have a Ryan Tannehill type of turn around in the right situation. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Giants will draft a new QB soon, that Danny Dimes dude is just too careless with the football, he is Jameis Winston lite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

showtime Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Slayton has to catch that ball, but the throw was also poor. Jones threw the ball late and overthrew it. The guy was wide open by 20 yards and you throw a ball where he has to run full speed to even have a chance at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chase Young was a wrecking ball on sunday, making plays left and right, here he looked sluggish. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SBLIII Posted September 17, 2021 Share Posted September 17, 2021 Daniel Jones will probably go to a contender with an old QB and a good OL like Tampa, sit there a year or two and then get a chance like Winston. Wins matter and they won't win many games with that OL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
