Take that, Daniel Jones haters: He’s a good quarterback. ConorOrr on a player who finally got the right situation around him in his fourth season ⬇️
So here we all come, trampling at a volume and grace reminiscent of stampeding baby elephants, to log on to our social media app of choice and say that we saw it coming.
Let’s watch the Sunday feature-length interviewers suddenly request a sit down with the Giants’ fourth-year QB who just won his first playoff game. Let’s keep an eye out for the insufferable corners of thefootball world and anonymous executives all of a sudden have a nice thing to say about him.Jones was always a good quarterback. It just took a while to get him in a position to succeed.
That’s why this weekend of playoff football was, all at once, wonderful and exciting and Starbucks-line infuriating. Both Jones and Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence finished their games plastered over by a television graphic saying they were the first player in NFL history to accomplish some kind of, in Jones’s case that he was the first player ever with 300-plus passing yards, two-plus passing TDs and 70-plus rushing yards in a postseason game.
Of course players get better. Of course Jones is more capable now than he was as a wobbly-legged rookie. Of course the Vikings’ defense is among the worst in recent NFL history, less reliable than that wooden boardwalk roller coaster on the pier. No hype train leaves the station without its caveats.

Giants put it all on QB Daniel Jones, and he shined in playoff win over VikingsWhen the New York Giants drafted Daniel Jones sixth overall, it was ridiculed. When the Giants didn't pick up the fifth-year option on his rookie deal, that seemed to cement him as a bust. By the end of his third season, the only hope was that new coach Brian Daboll could completely turn him around. It's not like the Giants gave him a lot of talent to throw to.
