Danny Dimes Time! This is a good thing, in the sense that it gives us all something to watch, talk and write about for the next three months – and maybe, if all goes well, to look forward to in 2020 and beyond.
But let’s be real here. The guy Daniel Jones is replacing, Eli Manning, the greatest quarterback in Giants history, lost his first six starts in 2004 with a team that had been 5-4 without him, including a 0.0 passer rating against the Ravens.
So while the Giants’ big announcement on Tuesday does add some juice, much like when Sam Darnold started in 2018 for a bad Jets team, it does not change the fundamental math of another lost season.
