I said if he had a good showing in prime time it would mean a lot to me. “Prime time” DeVito! Tommy Grade A Prime Cutlets...

I want a lot of people I was debating about Tommy DeVito being an NFL QB to admit it now. NOW! lol He is a legit backup QB at worst, and our Brock Purdy at best. It's a lot of fun, but do you see him as a starting NFL QB? Thats still up for debate!

So guys help me with this.. How does a kid like DeVito go undrafted?? He was awful at Syracuse for 4 years. Awful. A little better at Illinois last year. Plus, he is 25.

DeVito reminds me of Elway. Yet DeVito has stronger arm. Imagine if Miggs was a DeVito fan? He's still to butthurt over DJ to jump on that train. Was Elway like lol. Finds a way

I'm begging Daboll to let him throw it he seems to have a calmness about him lets see if he can break the Eagles hold they have over this franchise his next mile stone. Wouldn't that be something.

One big difference today is getting out of the pocket instead of taking sacks. Who would have thought, an UDFA rookie starting his 4th game is.... leaning? Wow! lol I said the past couple of weeks that his flaws were fixable with experience. Game by game. Step by step. Next stop, the ****ing worst team to try to beat for us, Eagles... Lets Go! Saints next week, Eagles the following one.

TD needs to be in the conversation as the starter next year he will work his but off in the offseason he see's and opening.

I can't believe that I'm saying this, but I agree 100%. I think the 3 of us are probably more surprised about this than anyone. Could either of you have imagined DeVito would be doing this for the Giants after his last season at Cuse? Not at all. He didn't look good at Illinois either. Literally no one saw this coming.

It's a lot of fun, but do you see him as a starting NFL QB? Well, I think he is a better QB than Daniel Jones. So, maybe. He is better than a lot of starting QBs right now in the NFL IMO. And he is still learning. Only 4th start as an undrafted player. It takes time for most QBs to get good. If you drop him into a 49ers uniform, how far off is he from Purdy?

I know coaching makes a huge difference with QBs.. but could the short time he's been with the Giants have made THAT much of a difference? Or were the systems he was in in college just that bad?

I wanted him to get the last 5 games to see where that development will take him the OL stood up in passpro tonight he had time and stayed in as long as he could if he didn't see the open man he left.

Forget the high draft pick, this team is winning more games. We're going to beat the Eagles this year.

If you think this is great, wait till he Wally Pipps Daniel Jones 😄 One big difference today is getting out of the pocket instead of taking sacks. The progress in pocket awareness in such a short period is astounding.

This turns my draft thought to a #1 WR and the most pro ready Guard or RT and an edge in the first 3 picks unless some one falls to us that can make every throw and has some real anticipation.

Thats the million dollar question and why its so hard to pick the right QB for a team. On average, if 5 QBs are taken in the 1st round, 2-3 are busts. This kid was undrafted. Flyer. And he turned down the Redskins and another team for us and less money. Go figure.

I’m seeing people saying “sign him”. I believe Schoen said because he chose NYG over the Pats they gave him a 3 yr deal for peanuts. Hope that’s correct. People ask how he doesn’t get drafted- sometimes the physical stature matters, the roster around him, but please consider coaching. Daboll and Tierney coached Josh Allen into what he is. Coaching matters but draft scouts and analysts miss “heart” and competitive desire all the time.

Well, that was a fun game....fix this offensive line, 3 positions... and this offense can gel. Few things. Devito looks calm and enjoying the moment, while Jones looks like he's having a game long panic attack. I'm certainly not crowning cutlets the next starting Giants QB, but if he strings a few games like this one, he just might be. He throws a nice ball...accurate with heat. Damn, kid showed me something avoiding the sack and taking off for positive gains on some nice running....pocket awareness was spot on tonight. Good job kid
