4 takeaways from Giants QB Daniels Jones’ contract extension press conference

New York Giants quarterback Daniel Jones signed a four-year, $160 million contract. Here are four takeaways from his presser announcing the deal.

The New York Giants inked former 2019 first-round quarterback Daniel Jones to a four-year, $160 million contract March 7.

The Giants and Jones were flirting with the 4:00 p.m. ET deadline. Otherwise Jones would have been the Giants’ franchise tag player.

“I was in the building,” Jones said. “I think it was 3:53 or 3:54, something like that. It was right up next to the deadline.”

Jones compiled a 9-6-1 record for the Giants last season as part of their 9-7-1 campaign. The former Duke product led New York to its first playoff win since 2011 with a 31-24 win over the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC wild-card.

Here are four takeaways from Jones’ presser.

Is Daniel Jones worth the big payday?

Did Daniel Jones flip the script and earn himself a franchise quarterback type of contract? Laurie Fitzpatrick looks for the answers in the tape.

When it comes to Daniel Jones, the New York Giants find themselves in an interesting situation. Finally, their quarterback played up to, if not better than, expectations in 2022. When we look back and compare from last year to this year, Jones performance was nothing short of impressive. In 2021, he was denied the fifth-year option and was forced to play in a prove-it year. So that is exactly what he did.

Under new head coach Brian Daboll, he went from a 84.8  quarterback rating in 2021 to 92.5 in 2022. He also landed himself into the top ten conversations in a few areas. Among quarterbacks who had at least 350 dropbacks, he led the league with the fewest of interceptions, five. He was tied for fifth in pass completion percentage index with 112, and sixth in completion percentage, 66.7%. When throwing from play action, he had the second highest rating (103.3) in the league with the highest-pressure rate 43.9%, per Sports Info Solutions.

Jones got his team a playoff win for the first time since 2011, the last time the Giants won the Super Bowl. And he did all of this without a top receiver in the league. So, the question remains, does he deserve a $45 million per year contract, as it has been reported that he wants?

The answers lie in the film!

Packers CB Eric Stokes is the best 2021 NFL rookie you need to know

Touchdown Wire’s Laurie Fitzpatrick dives into Eric Stokes’ film to break down how the young cornerback elevates the Packers’ defense.

Packers cornerback Eric Stokes had one of the best rookie seasons that almost nobody is talking about. After being drafted by Green Bay Packers 29th overall in 2021, Stokes led his team in pass breakups (14) and also led all rookie defensive backs with the lowest completion rate allowed in coverage at 51.0%, per Pro Football Focus.

Stokes wasn’t just dominant among the rookies, though. He also had the lowest percent of open targets allowed among all NFL cornerbacks with 24%, and to put that into perspective, four-time pro bowler Marshon Lattimore finished the season with 24.5%.

There were only a handful of cornerbacks since 2015 to register a sub 80.0 passer rating in coverage their rookie seasons: Marcus Peters (2015), Jalen Ramsey (2016), Marshon Lattimore (2017), Marlon Humphrey (2017), Tre’Davious White (2017) and now, Stokes (2021); putting him in elite company.

Let’s not forget that this was also against the top No. 1 receivers in the league last year: Odell Beckham Jr., Justin Jefferson, Terry McLaurin, Ja’Marr Chase, Deebo Samuel, Allen Robinson. And Stokes still finished as a top cornerback statistically.

Despite all these numbers, Stokes really isn’t getting the early recognition he deserves. This could be due to the Packers’ defensive scheme overall. So, let’s dive into the film to see how he was able to perform at an elite level and why we should start giving him the love he deserves!

How the Packers’ defense could get Green Bay to Super Bowl LVII

How rookie linebacker Jabril Cox can help the Cowboys’ defense

While Micah Parsons is the big-name linebacker in the Cowboys’ 2021 draft, fourth-round pick Jabril Cox can help, as well.

Predicting the Dallas Cowboys’ defensive starters for the upcoming season is nearly impossible. With the new defensive coordinator Dan Quinn brought on board, free agent pick-ups, draft picks, and recent cuts, it’s true that every single player will have a chance of seeing the field.

One thing was evident for Dallas’ defense in the 2020 season — Mike Nolan may have been the worst defensive coordinator that the Cowboys had in a long time. The Cowboys’ 2020 Defense was the worst in franchise history and 2nd worst in yards allowed; only behind the 2013 team. Though the majority of the season, Nolan left only two linebackers in the middle of the field, even against 12 and even 13 personnel. They had no help.

This is a good lineup against the pass but absolutely terrible if the offense decides to run the ball. The Browns let the Cowboys take themselves out of most plays with their run zone blocking.

There was zero rotation (from the bottom to the top) from the defense when the run-play wass forming. The safety on the bottom of the screen was supposed to shift and step up into the play — instead he stays back and allows the zone blocking scheme form. The defense simply were not put into the position to win. On top the corner blitzed, and I am surprised this was not a touchdown.

The one position in jeopardy would be weakside linebacker — the position of Jaylon Smith. Yes, he was put into some really bad situations last year but if coordinator keeps the same looks with Smith again this year, this defense may be in trouble. 

Smith made some poor decisions in the run game which ended up giving the opponent very good field position early in games. He seemed to have a slow first step forward and that led to him being blocked out of the play and when he had a chance to bring the ball carrier down, he wouldn’t choose the correct pursuit angle, or he would end up letting the play bounce outside.

Jabril Cox, who Dallas selected with the 110th overall pick in the fourth round of the 2021 draft, has some attributes to his game that will be a breath of fresh air for the Cowboys’ defense. His pass coverage ability paired with his closing speed and size, he’s proven that he is a force to be reckoned with. It’s already known that he was an elite defender when dropping back into coverage in college. His awareness in the open field is usually something that translates seamlessly into the NFL. He will most likely be used in situations where he will cover any receiver motioning out to his side, like tight ends, running backs and slot receivers, and this will be in man and zone coverage. He is a quick pursuit style ‘backer with the ability to knock the ball free before the catch and after. What we need to know is if his run defense can hold up at the next level. Can he do what Jaylon Smith can’t?

If he continues to work on his hand-fighting when getting off blocks, he may have a chance of seeing a lot of playing time over Smith.

Cox is able to keep his outside arm free (forcing the ball carrier inside) keep his head up while hand fighting and then breaking down to make the play.

Once again, in the same game, he continues forcing the ball carrier inside which then his other defenders have a chance in helping him out to make the tackle.

Against Mississippi State, Cox did pretty well against the run even when the defensive look was uneven. He stayed in the gap forcing the ball carrier inside to his middle linebacker.

Over and over again throughout the season, we saw Cox have trouble getting off blockers, but as long as he is in the right place in the run game with his first step being forward, he has the ability to force ballcarriers inside to his teammates, and that really is the main goal of a weakside linebacker.

ESPN analyst Marcus Spears fishes for charity, dishes on Cowboys QB Dak Prescott

Marcus Spears gave his thoughts on Dak Prescott after competing in the Academy Sports + Outdoors’ 2021 Bassmaster Classic Celebrity Fishing Tournament

LEWISVILLE, Texas — Former Dallas Cowboys defensive end Marcus Spears and his team placed third in the Academy Sports + Outdoors’ 2021 Bassmaster Classic Celebrity Fishing Tournament on Lake Lewisville June 9.

Spears earned $1,000 for the Boys & Girls Clubs of Louisiana, and says he is humbled to have the opportunity to give back to an organization that helped him and his family growing up in Baton Rouge, Louisiana.
“They were doing the most work in the area that I grew up in,” Spears said. “They were there. They were visible. I was able to go see them and see what they were doing. I attach myself to them, and they’re still doing great work.”
Although Spears had “home-lake advantage” fishing on a body of water he enjoyed while playing for Dallas from 2005-12, Hall-of-Fame cornerback Deion Sanders finished first and country duo Maddie & Tae placed second.
“Deion Sanders’ team won, but I think it was fixed,” Spears joked.
The ESPN commentator, who regularly appears on First Take and Get Up, also took time to talk about the Cowboys and where they are headed in 2021 given their hiring of Dan Quinn as defensive coordinator.
“I expect them to be better,” said Spears. “Going from 32 to the high twenties with that offense and where I expect them to be, you’re a competitive team in this league. I’m not picking them to win the Super Bowl. I don’t think they’re that good, but I definitely think they’re the best team in this division based on coaching changes that were made, based on coming off a non-COVID season, based on playing with five offensive linemen that had never started a game in the NFL.”
The most optimistic part of the Cowboys’ 2021 outlook revolves around the signing of quarterback Dak Prescott to a long-term deal and his on-pace recovery from a broken ankle sustained on Oct. 11, 2020.
Said Spears: “Look, Dallas is fortunate to have Dak. Dak lost his momma. Like, that’s the worst. So, the dude is built to last. He’s built to be a leader, a strong dude. These type of things would affect a normal person a little bit more. I firmly believe that. I’m a fan of a lot of guys in this league, but Dak is up there for me. Obviously the loss of his brother and being able to handle that, being transparent about what he was going through mentally. Man, Dallas is in good hands, man. I was on TV every damn day saying ‘pay the man’ because it was more than just being a good quarterback. It was about this dude has shown you not only that he’s a good quarterback, the team, the way the team responded when he tore his ankle up told you that he was the unquestioned leader on that football team. And then you saw how abysmal it was when he wasn’t out there.”
Cowboys fans are hopeful that the abysmal times are behind them, and Dallas can at least meet, if not surpass, Spears’ expectations of an NFC East title in 2021.
