That dude is done. He has the deer in the headlights syndrome.

At least he cashed in during the offseason.  That's the reason you don't cave to demands of players at key positions looking for their bag that's not generational.  I'm all about paying guys what they are worth, but overpaying dudes because they think they are worth the figure in their heads is another.

Kyler Murray is another example.  Teams balk for a reason (they have reservations about the player) then cave and almost immediately regret it.

Add Brian Burns to that list in the offseason while we lack a first round pick and saddled with a huge cap number.

I can't believe they gave him that contract. He's never been anything but bad or mediocre. Moving from bad to mediocre convinced them that he'd figured it out.

Joe Schoen and Brian Daboll have probably improved the Giants overall, but the decision to go with Jones with Still a head scratcher.

Don't think for a second the Giants aren't going to be looking very hard at this QB class.  They can get out from under Jones' contract after the 2024 season.  This also give the rookie a year to sit if need be.

Can someone give me a summary of what's going on with Michigan? I don't follow college football but heard something about them sending guys in disguise to opposing team games to steal signs or something?

I haven't followed it super closely, but from what I've seen they sent a staffer named Connor Stallions (apparently his real name) to other games where he managed to get on the sidelines with Google glasses type equipment and steal signs, even from lesser schools like Central Michigan.

Word was that Michigan was ready to offer Jim Harbaugh an extension that would have made him the highest paid coach in college football, but now that's been delayed.

It's insane.

One explanation is he was a rogue employee making like $30k year who took initiative and created this scheme and relayed information to coaches, and the coaches didn’t investigate on how he was getting this info because it was beneficial. Didn’t want to pry if you know what I’m saying. He was doing this at his own discretion and acted alone. 
 

and of course, the guy was not a very good criminal and created a very easily traceable money trail. 
 

if it can be linked to Harbaugh he was behind this oh man

Probably a distant cousin of the guys that deflated the footballs for Brady just to help him out.

      PFF ranks the 2025 starting QBs

      100%. And these same people will claim you have an agenda. You can't have it every way. We had the lowest rated defense in the league last year. Statistically the worst ever. By PFF grades (for whatever that's worth- but they are readily accepted, used, and conveyed by most "reputable" sources), the defense was the worst ever. Not only that, PFF rated our receiving corp the worst in football last season. The absolute worst... out of 32 teams. Which is why regardless of the lip service Canales and Morgan paid to the current guys, they knew it would be criminal not to give Bryce more help. People fixating on team stats and not taking these things into context are stupid, plain and simple, and I'm for one thankful they're not running this team (or probably anything for that matter bc they obviously can't discern reality. Again, going back to the eyeball test these Narrative Nancies seem to hate so much, did they not see the windows Bryce was putting balls into? Have the generally not watched much NFL? Please, please show me the film where all these NFL QBs are making throws like this to this point Bryce was "below average" down the stretch compared to them. Bryce made more wow throws in that 3 game stretch of the Bucs, Chiefs, and Eagles than every other QB combined in all the years since since Cam got hurt I genuinely am baffled by people that can watch throws like that and act like it's nothing. I guarantee you Steve Spagnola, Todd Bowles, and and Vic Fangio didn't think it was nothing after watching the little guy torch them with players those teams would be embarrassed to trot out at the skill position players. The national media spent all year making excuses for Mahomes not having elite weapons when he had multiple 1st & 2nd round talents at the skill positions along with future HoFers in Kelce and Hopkins. Bryce wasn't throwing for 300 yards every week with David Moore and Adam Theilen in spite of jaw dropping throws and you want to say the guy played below average. For those people, again, we ain't watching the same sport. And the name calling doesn't change that... The vitriol and projection... it's off the effing charts with these people.

      "Well you see if you remove this terrible game that terrible game this other terrible game and then focus on these games you'll see he's actually one of the better QB's in the league and he's actually as good as Jayden Daniels". My god this place is delusional. I love it.
