Seems it is gonna be D Jones

Still hell of a performance, that bloody mouth scramble and then dime to Warren was classic

Jones has been below average QB the last two games. A turnover waiting to happen. Hope it's an aberration but Giants fans say that is who he is. He is one tough SOB however.

I'll take one tough SOB over the alternative!

I leader he seems to be. I like the guy but think he is limited. Offensive line needs to get their shit together. Since everyone began blathering on about how great they are and how brilliant Ballard is they have been a sieve. This is a good team that finds ways to win, all teams have ups and downs. We know what this team can do, have seen it. Having two shut down corners will do incredible things for this defense. They are capable of a deep run in December, maybe thru February if they get hot. I cannot remember with any clarity the last time I actually believed that. What more could you ask for in November?

This was almost the banner image this week, but it creeps me out that his eyes are tracking two different directions. This is surely how he sees the entire field.

Jones in the past two games- 4 interceptions, 6 fumbles(3 lost), and 12 sacks taken.

He’s been really bad lately and that cannot continue if we expect to go anywhere this season.

Pittsburg and Atlanta both blitzed him pretty heavily and had success doing it. That will continue until he figures it out or gets benched again.

Atlanta "succeeded" to the tune of allowing 31 points and losing, Pittsburgh would have had similar results if they didn't get some of the most fortuitous bounces of the ball I've ever seen (i.e. the Sawyer INT). The OL needs to pass block better, but if these are the results blitzing produces, I'm not sure that I'm concerned.

Pass protection.

You’re not concerned about 12 sacks, 6 fumbles, and 4 ints in a 2 game stretch?

Ok, I admire your optimism.

Jones is part of that as well. First of all, he has to secure the ball. Second, he has to get rid of the ball when the other team is blitzing.

As I said, teams are going to continue doing this. It’s up to Steichen and Jones to get it corrected.
