I'm very excited to see real Daniel Jones. I hope people don't think he's going to come out and throw for 400+ yards per game... but I'd be super happy with growth over these next 14 games and maybe even a 4-5 game stretch where he plays downright good towards the end. Eli was the best QB in franchise history and let's not forget how terrible he was the first 7 games of his career.
Yeah I like the idea Getty is going for but there's certainly been some strange fucking management happening the past few years. We sign Odell just to trade him... and be stuck with his 28 million in salary (or however much) for the year... but I can see how Odell became a douche and had to go. But Eli... the story's been "we can win with him, he hasn't lost anything, he's our guy..." and they keep him around, eat 17 million in cap dollars (he'd have cost us 6 if we'd have cut him) and then play him for two games? I really hope it's because Jones is light years better than any of us thought he'd be, but between this, the fucking weird Eli mismanagement during MacAdoo's tenure, and Mara's now-annual "uncharacteristically addressing the team," I really have to wonder whether or not this ship has a rudder.
