Daniel Jones’ worst moment of the day

Situation: 1st & 10 from the NY Giants’ 37-yard line, with the NY Giants leading 17-10, with 5:09 remaining in the 2nd quarter.

Daniel Jones ran a play-action run, then looked right, rolled right and seemed ready to throw. If only he saw DeMarcus Lawrence blow by Andrew Thomas. Jones got drilled by a steamrolling Lawrence, who then proceeded to knock the ball out of Jones’ hands. To make matters worse, Dallas scooped and scored off the fumble recover, taking it back 29-yards for a touchdown.

This play was awful for NY, as it gave Dallas back-to-back touchdowns in under two minutes. This turnover is another frustrating one for Jones and for all NY Giants fans. This was another costly turnover that directly led to points and cost the Giants their touchdown lead. The talk of Jones’ turnover issue simply won’t go away until he makes it go away.
