I’ve been watching since 2020 (my first giants game was the 3rd and 9 incident), and have been in love with Daniel Jones since day one. I will confess I am a DJ truther. But he gets injured and this absolute bum walks on, gets one good game against a notoriously horrible opponent where DJ has always done well, with better weapons then Jones ever had, and now he’s the guy? I can’t tell if it’s a shitpost for how badly the season has been and it’s coping, or if it’s a serious belief in Tommy DeVito starting as QB1. Someone please help me understand 🤲
It’s not that deep bro. Devito is a very likeable guy, and a guy you want to root for. Hes Italian and very jersey Italian, which is a huge part of our fanbase. Like another guy said we’re having fun during a terrible season. Nobody thinks he’s better than DJ, nobody thinks he’s our QB of the future. He’s a Syracuse QB who obviously is not NFL caliber but just won against one of our division rivals and had a better game than anybody imagined.
He’s a kid who we root for because he’s likeable. But at the end of the day most of us see him as a “tank commander” more so than an actual starting QB
Add to it, he’s a guy who doesn’t belong in the NFL and is by all accounts a bum. But he threw for more TD passes in 1 than Jones has since his rookie year. Devito also single handed Lu destroys the Daniel Jones narrative that he is being held back. And Devito is a meme. So we just love the kid but we’d move on a heartbeat if we could.
