mastershake Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Just for kicks, was he really that bad? Instead of this, I seem to more fondly remember like 8-12x three and outs per game ~1995 - 1999 before Kerry Collins got us out of QB hell. The other problem is DB progressively got worse 1994 - 1996. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 when I pressed play I was shocked to see it was a 15 minute long video. I thought, wow, that's way more TDs than I thought. Then I see they spend like 2 minutes per TD. So... yeah.... he was that bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, highlights are always nice, but I can't for the life of me remember a time 1994 - 1997 when I was excited about Dave Brown QB play. All I remember was constant disappointment and recurring 3 and outs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CrazedDogs Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 Honestly I think he's one of those guys who was never quite as bad as the common perception. Mediocre QB on mediocre teams with a good, but very uninspired head coach. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sephiroth Posted August 14, 2020 Share Posted August 14, 2020 Four minutes in and they're on his third TD. I think I can see where this is going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CrazedDogs Posted August 15, 2020 Share Posted August 15, 2020 Lol, but seriously it took about eight minutes of Dave Brown highlights to equal Jones" Tampa Bay game alone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iceman_NYG Posted August 17, 2020 Share Posted August 17, 2020 I had not started watching Football at the time DB played. But when I first fell in love with the Giants and started watching I tried to go a bit into history and see some stuff. Some of the more seasoned Giants fans issued ultimatums to me - DB was like Voldemort - he who should not be named. They said read up and watch all you want but the stay the fuck away from DB - those were the Dark Ages. Maybe the QBing was atrocious - but the last few years as a team - this can qualify for 'Dark Ages 2' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mastershake Posted August 18, 2020 Author Share Posted August 18, 2020 One thing I liked about Kent Graham is I always felt like the guy had guts. Remember that game against the undefeated 12-0 (or something) Broncos in 1998? The guy went on a tear. In general, that 1998 season and the last four games while being 4 - 8 when the team could have easily mailed it in, Kent Graham led the team to four straight wins. He was also doing decent in 1999 for awhile, when he had fucking Sean Bennett and Joe Montgomery as his running backs, and two rookies starting on the offensive line (Petitgout and Rosenthal). He also posted a winning record for us, somehow. 10-9. Dave Brown was just dull, boring...never did anything special. I can't for the life of me remember anytime he led us to a come from behind win in the 4th quarter. I remember being 10-12 at the time, and yelling at the TV and asking my father "Why don't the giants just put in the backup QB. It can't possibly get any worse than this, can it?" To which my father replied "Somehow the giants don't have anyone better than this." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JayD Posted August 18, 2020 Share Posted August 18, 2020 Yeah he was that bad. Although he was QB at the first game I ever went to. They just barely beat the Bangles. So I do have one great memory Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
