If you wanted evidence that we live in a simulation, look no further than what's happening with Daniel Jones. The New York Giants are 0-2. The Indianapolis Colts are 2-0, meaning Danny Dimes, by some divine power, is undefeated.
In a twist so strange it might break Giants fans’ brains, the same quarterback who spent six years underwhelming in New York is suddenly thriving in Indianapolis. He’s leading touchdown drives, standing tall and looking confident in the pocket, and not turning the ball over. For a guy who made punting practically a Big Blue tradition, Jones hasn’t even let Indy use theirs.
The @Colts are the first team in the Super Bowl era to not punt in either of their first two games in a season 🤯#ForTheShoe pic.twitter.com/SGwXuqsNpu

Seriously, Colts punter Rigoberto Sanchez hasn’t been called upon once this season. Not once. Through two games, Jones and the Horseshoe offense have made NFL history, becoming the first team in the Super Bowl era to start the season with two straight games without a single punt. And jobs are on the line.
Daniel Jones is doing what Giants fans never saw — and it might cost someone their job
There’s something ironic... no, poetic, about this situation. For years, Giants fans watched Jones sputter, stall, and set up punters for prime time. He wasn’t just the team's QB; he was the unofficial special teams MVP.
Now, in Indy, he might be too good for someone else’s job security. And it's actually pretty selfish.
Sanchez is a good punter, but you can’t justify a roster spot if you’re never needed. The Colts have 15 offensive drives through two games. They’ve scored on 13 of them. The other two? One ended in a missed field goal. The other, the first half ended.
Jones hasn’t just turned it around — he’s flipped the whole thing on its head. With him at the helm, the Colts aren't just competitive. They’re efficient. It’s so efficient, it borders on annoying. And why in the world should fans spend any more time thinking about this guy? They have Russell Wilson looking like vintage Russ, and Jaxson Dart waiting in the wings. Yet, we're still talking dimes.
Big Blue Nation watched this guy end drives with third-down sacks and bubble-screen overthrows. Now he’s ending them with walk-off field goals (too soon) and history-making offensive numbers. He’s not killing careers with poor play anymore, but he might just be costing a punter his job by being too productive.
Must be nice.
