I didn't make it up. Giants reporters always said it, at least after the neck injury. Our reporters have said it all camp.

I do agree he's the safer bet and I think we can win with him. I'm not saying he's Gardner Minshew, but Minshew was also the safer bet with less traits. Minshew hit some long balls for us, but we were pulling our hair out not being able loosen defenses up more by pushing downfield.
I actually preferred Minshew over Jones. Jones seems a little more of a boring guy with no real potential to do anything to rally a team around him.

Jones signing was not as intriguing as when they signed Minshew, That is all I am saying. I feel we will be as disappointed in Jones as we were with Minshew. Play AR and be done with it.
