LAS VEGAS — A dazzling debut by Daniel Jones, who won his first start for the Giants, added some perspective to the NFL’s most valuable position on the season’s third Sunday. A team not grooming a quarterback for the future has no future.
The Giants still face plenty of problems, especially defensively, but Jones’ emergence and the transition away from Eli Manning provides hope and changes the team’s perception among bettors and oddsmakers.
On the other hand, the Broncos appear hopeless with 34-year-old Joe Flacco slowly spinning his wheels for a winless team.
