ICARO Media Group
In Year 3 of the Daboll/Schoen Era, the New York Giants are faced with a crucial decision regarding their quarterback lineup for the upcoming season. The performance of Drew Lock, Daniel Jones, and Tommy DeVito has become a topic of discussion among Giants fans and experts.
Drew Lock's struggle to improve his nonchalant fundamentals has raised concerns about his position as a potential backup. If he fails to address these issues promptly, Lock might find himself in a summer battle with DeVito for the backup role, rather than pushing starter Daniel Jones.
Although Tommy DeVito's arm strength is impressive, he still tends to hold onto the ball too long when facing a pass rush. However, a strong spring performance could force the Giants to consider making room for three quarterbacks on the 53-man roster, ensuring DeVito isn't exposed to waivers and possibly securing him a bigger payday.
Looking ahead, Giants legend Carl Banks shared his thoughts on potential coaching changes. While ruling out a return of Bill Belichick to New York, Banks mentioned that the Dallas Cowboys could be an ideal landing spot for the accomplished coach if they decide to part ways with Mike McCarthy.
Assessing the Giants' progress, Connor Hughes from SNY.tv expressed empathy for Brian Daboll and Joe Schoen, acknowledging that they exceeded expectations in their first year. However, their playoff appearance and victory over Minnesota may have given a false sense of how close the team was to contention.
It is clear that the Giants are heading in the right direction, but the rebuilding process will take time due to the dire state of the roster post-Dave Gettleman. As the team enters the infancy stage of rebuilding, patience will be key in achieving long-term success.
As the 2024 season approaches, the Giants' coaching staff and front office will have to carefully evaluate the performance of their quarterbacks. Decisions regarding the starting position, backup role, and potential roster adjustments will play a significant role in shaping the team's future. Fans will eagerly await the outcome of this evaluation process, hoping for a strong season ahead for the New York Giants.
