Sure, it is and sure, Allen looking good has also only come in preseason, albeit against more first-teamers (excluding Kuechly last week) than Jones. But the Allen & Jones detractors surely wouldn't be placing any caveats about "preseason" on their performance if they were looking badly; if both were looking as poorly as expected than they'd be going in for the kill, insisting it only proves/validates their preconceptions about them. It just shouldn't be had both ways. Edited August 23, 2019 by Midwest1981

Pat Shurmer threw this out there today: i still think it’s way too early but that’s a heck of a statement for the HC to make considering Gettleman thought he might sit 3 years You can’t take a lot from preseason but IMO Jones is kind of looking like Mahomes did during his first few preseasons games.
Alphadawg7 Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 Its not that Jones was a bad prospect when Giants took him at 6...is that they could have gotten him with their next pick and also took Oliver or Allen at 6 still. So Giants are always going to wonder if they could have had BOTH Jones and one of those stud defensive picks too. But at the end of the day, the QB position is the most important, so if Jones pans out, no one will dwell on that down the road. But if either Oliver or Allen proves to be pro bowl stud and Jones peaks out at just being a decent but not great QB (or worse) then the pick will probably haunt them a while.
zow2 Posted August 23, 2019 Posted August 23, 2019 I'd be fine with rookie Daniel Jones starting. No way will he be totally prepared for a real defensive scheme coming at him this early in his career. But he does look promising for the future. Such a weird quirk of schedule to be the home opener for two clubs in consecutive weeks in the same stadium. 1
