1. One of the staples of being a sports fan -- perhaps, the main staple -- is to overreact to everything. Enter, Giants rookie quarterback, Daniel Jones.
On Draft night, April 25, fans and media reacted as if the world was burning down when New York selected the Duke signal-caller with the sixth overall pick.
Yes, tons of draft picks generate plenty of scorn and laughs and groans, but bashing the Jones pick took on a life of its own.
Cut to yesterday. Jones makes the first start of his NFL career and he completes 23 of 36 passes for 336 yards, throws two touchdowns, runs for two other touchdowns, including the game winner, and doesn't throw a pick, leading the Giants to a 32-31 win over the Bucs for their first victory of the year and New Yorkers can't stop saying, "DANNY DIMES" over and over and over.
