Not this year, but maybe at some point in the not-too-distant future.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>An absurd vision moved more than a few yards closer to reality Sunday, when a quarterback who had been mocked on arrival as just another first-round reach inspired the home fans to stand and chant his name. By playing with reckless abandon in this 38-10 shredding of the Colts, Jones cleared the first two hurdles in the making of a potential championship quarterback in the New York market.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>1)<\/strong> He earned the respect and affection of a tough crowd.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>2)<\/strong> He led his team to the playoffs.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Near the end of Year 4, after so much conspired against him in Years 1, 2 and 3, Jones actually made MetLife Stadium feel like his own. Reborn under rookie head coach Brian Daboll, Jones played with the kind of defiance that suggested he was saying a big, loud \u201cF you\u201d to everyone who doubted him.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>He threw for two scores, ran for two scores and absorbed a ton of unnecessary hits to the body and head while barreling through the Colts for 91 rushing yards. Jones was raging against the ticket-holders and columnists and talking electronic heads who had ripped him \u2014 and rightfully so at times \u2014 for being a turnover machine, a slow reader of defenses and a guy who couldn\u2019t stay out of the trainer\u2019s room or tub.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/20230101_GiantsColts005CS.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Daniel Jones passes during the Giants' win over the Colts on Jan. 1. \" class=\"wp-image-25206090\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/20230101_GiantsColts005CS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2048 2048w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/20230101_GiantsColts005CS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/20230101_GiantsColts005CS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/20230101_GiantsColts005CS.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Daniel Jones passes during the Giants\u2019 win over the Colts on Jan. 1. <\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Corey Sipkin for the NY POST<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Though he\u2019d never, ever admit it for public consumption, Jones was also raging against the employers (Daboll, new <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/general\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"3\" title=\"General\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">general<\/a> manager Joe Schoen, old co-owner John Mara) who decided against picking up his $22.4 million fifth-year option.\u00a0<\/p>\n<aside class=\"single__inline-module alignright\">\n    <\/aside>\n<p>On one fourth-quarter drive alone, Jones stiff-armed Bobby Okereke to the ground and rebounded from the linebacker\u2019s personal foul (Jones\u2019s helmet bounced off the turf) to crash through Okereke at the end of a 10-yard touchdown run. This was a Duke grad taking a Stanford grad to the school of hard knocks.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cStressful,\u201d said Giants receiver Darius Slayton of watching his quarterback play bully-ball. \u201cI\u2019d rather him slide, but I think he showed his toughness. He\u2019s a real football player. He\u2019s not a quarterback that sits in the pocket and sits above everybody. Stuff like that just shows you who he really is inside and what he\u2019s willing to do to win.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Recalling bygone boos that rained down on Jones from the MetLife rafters, Slayton said he wanted to jump into the crowd and chant for the quarterback himself. It was that kind of festive day in Jersey. Daboll pulled Jones in the middle of the fourth quarter so the fans could tell the sixth overall pick from the 2019 draft exactly how they feel about him now that he\u2019s a healthy, productive winner at last.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe\u2019s such a great teammate, and a great person, just h<a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>y for him,\u201d Mara said when it was over. \u201cYou draft him as high as we drafted him, we got a lot of criticism.

The co-owner was among the first big believers, telling The Post before last season that he saw Jones as a future Super Bowl champ. \u201cI can say that without any hesitation,\u201d Mara said. Asked if he thought his guy could match the two Super Bowl titles claimed by his predecessor, Eli Manning, Mara responded, \u201cI don\u2019t see why not, if we put the right pieces around him.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>A lot of pieces are still required. The Giants\u2019 top receivers against the Colts, Richie James and Isaiah Hodgins, each had more than 200 players picked before them in their respective drafts. There are reasons why the Giants missed the playoffs five straight years, and went 43 straight <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/game\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"7\" title=\"Game\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">game<\/a>s without scoring at least 30 points.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But this wasn\u2019t a day to fret over unfilled holes. Daboll said he gave Jones his curtain-call opportunity \u201cbecause I thought he earned it,\u201d and truer words couldn\u2019t be spoken. Staying on brand, the quarterback rejected multiple chances to bask in the glow of the fans\u2019 ovation, other than to say he was \u201cgrateful, really appreciative of their support for me personally, and for our team.\u201d He did say the chant \u201cbeats the alternative for sure\u201d and did slip for a moment when asked if he\u2019d savor this victory more than others. \u201cYeah I will,\u201d Jones responded, before pivoting to his standard team-centric messaging.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/02s.GiantsPlayoffWeb.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Giants\" class=\"wp-image-25206582\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/02s.GiantsPlayoffWeb.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1536 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/02s.GiantsPlayoffWeb.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2023\/01\/02s.GiantsPlayoffWeb.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">N.Y.
