Yeah I know, the page is overrun with the same old post, doom and gloom, no hope in sight, we are the worst of the worst. Sadly, I’m here to add another one. Bryce is performing as one of the worst QB’s selected in the entire draft. Can he turn it around? I hope so, but it does not look good at all so far. Undrafted Tommy DeVito looks like a capable starter who just got his third win last night,  posting a QBR over 100 in each game started. 

Article:

The Giants thought they had put Monday night’s game against the Packers on ice with a long run by Saquon Barkley, but the running back stumbled and fumbled the ball away with less than four minutes left on the clock. 

Green Bay moved ahead with a touchdown and the Giants thwarted a two-point attempt, which meant they got the ball back with 93 seconds left and in need of a field goal to win the game. It was a new situation for rookie quarterback Tommy DeVito and he proved to be up to the task. 

DeVito hit three passes for 21 yards to move the ball near midfield and then hooked up with wide receiver Wan’Dale Robinson for 32 yards to move the team into position for Randy Bullock’s game-winning field goal. The 24-22 win was the third in a row for a Giants team that’s going to continue rolling with the hometown boy at quarterback. 

“It’s his job,” head coach Brian Daboll said in his postgame press conference. “Third game of over a hundred quarterback rating. He made good decisions, took care of the ball, used him in the run game. Just keep developing him. He’s improving. Still got stuff to work on, but like I said two or three times last week, I think he’s a young player that’s doing the right things and making the most of his opportunity. He earned the right to play today, and he earned the right to play the next week. The kid’s done a good job.”

DeVito and the Giants looked lost when he was first thrust into the quarterback job, but he’s steadily improved and has shown he can handle the job over the course of their winning streak. That has earned him a future in the NFL and it’s given the Giants some reason to smile after a 2-8 start made it look like a lost season.

Tommy DeVito has 8 TDs in five starts. Bryce has 9 in twelve.

Levis has thrown for 250+ yards in two games in seven starts. Bryce hasn't accomplished this feat yet.

It’s sad. I want to find hope in his play, and I hope he uses this offseason to really hit the reset button, but it’s hard to have hope when you see other teams with obvious deficiencies across the team, still performing well with a rookie QB….even Undrafted.

DJ Moore, Levi’s, and a running game wouldn’t look too shabby right now in comparison 😫

and a first round pick and a few second rounders

 

While aknowleging how badly the Panthers blew this it can't be overooked that the majority of our community was just as horribly wrong about these QBs

Levis is looking like the real deal. I remember when everyone was shitting on him during the pre draft process.  But that athleticism and arm strength just made me think if he cleans some things up he would be okay. He has been way better than that.

I didn't like him as a prospect and honestly I still doubt he pans out long-term but at least he has talent to work with and develop.

Dalton threw for 300+ yards plays 2 TD’s in his one start with this same “terrible offense with no playmakers’

      4-3

      By csx · Posted

      I don't think the scheme is the issue. I think that the roster situation and health is the issue.  Pick something and stay with it.  One positive of the 3-4 is that 4-3 tweeners have potential in the odd front.

      Panthers could finish with the worst defense in the history of the NFL

      By CamWhoaaCam · Posted

      Look at the names on our defense.   I legit only know 4 players Brown/Horn/Shaq/Clowney and 2 of those players are injured.

      It's really bad and injuries make it worse but they also allowed this D to come into this year with these guys as the talent injection on a depleted roster? DT A’Shawn Robinson (agreed to terms on sign three-year, $22.5 million deal) LB Josey Jewell (signed three-year, $22.75 million deal) CB Dane Jackson (signed two-year, $8.5 million deal) OLB D.J. Wonnum (signed two-year, $12.5 million deal) OLB K’Lavon Chaisson (signed one-year, $5 million deal) S Jordan Fuller (signed one-year, $5.25 million deal) S Nick Scott (signed) OLB Jadeveon Clowney (signed to two-year, $20 million deal) With a draft class like this — Buffalo's first-rounder (No. 32 overall) — WR Xavier Legette — Indianapolis' second rounder (No. 46 overall) — RB Jonathon Brooks — New York Jets' third-rounder (No. 72 overall) — LB Trevin Wallace — Their own fourth-rounder (No. 101 overall) — TE Ja'Tavion Sanders — New York Jets' fifth-rounder (No. 157 overall) — CB Chau Smith-Wade — Buffalo's sixth-rounder (No. 200 overall) — DT Jaden Crumedy — Pittsburgh's seventh-rounder (No. 240 overall) — LB Michael Barrett Mike Jackson has been good thankfully and super early with little tape but Wallace showed some promise in a tough roll on Sunday. They weren't going to build a top D this year but they could have also done better than that. We lost freaking Luvu and I think Jackson is an upgrade over the old Jackson. Brown and Thompson were not going to save that D if healthy given what was around them. That's on the GM and DC for not doing better. They literally missed on all but 2 guys so far while expecting their passrush to be an old Clowney? Since Evero and DM were here last year lets add 2023's guys DL Shy Tuttle (signed three-year, $19.5 million deal) S Vonn Bell (signed three-year, $22.5 million deal) DL DeShawn Williams (signed one-year, $1.1 million deal) LB Kamu Grugier-Hill (signed one-year, $1.3 million deal) DB Eric Rowe (agreed to terms) And that draft Round 1 | Pick 1 overall (from CHI) Bryce Young, QB, Alabama Round 2 | Pick 39 overall Jonathan Mingo, WR, Ole Miss Round 3 | Pick 80 (from PIT) DJ Johnson, EDGE, Oregon Round 4, Pick 114 overall Chandler Zavala, G, NC State Round 5, Pick 145 overall Jammie Robinson, S, Florida State That's how you build an all time worst D right there. Burns is doing nothing in NY. Luvu wasn't coming back anyways. I don't see how DM and Evero get a pass for such terrible work over 2 years. I would think a blindfolded dude throwing darts at a draft board and free agency board could do better than that over 2 years. It's not just a talent on the field problem IMO. And yes DM was AGM in 2023 but he was the GM's right hand guy and the pro-personnel guy so even taking that into context it still stinks.
