The New York Giants dropped their 13th consecutive game to Dallas Cowboys quarterback Dak Prescott with Thursday’s 20-15 loss at MetLife Stadium.

But it wasn’t the NFL’s highest-paid player that dropped the Giants to 1-3. Rather, according to fans and media, it was struggling quarterback Daniel Jones’ inaccuracy on deep throws that was to blame.

‘Daniel Jones has been very efficient tonight, which is good,’ Fox Sports’ Ralph Vacchiano wrote on X. ‘But he’s misfired on every deep throw. The Giants can win games with ‘efficient’ play, but at some point he’s going to have to hit those deep shots for the offense to really be good.’

Jones finished with 281 yards on 29-of-40 passing Thursday. His final attempt, fittingly, was an underthrown Hail Mary pass that fell into the arms the Cowboys’ Amani Oruwariye as Dallas improved to 2-2 on the season.
