Giants GM severely judges his own team while praising Patrick Mahomes and the Chiefs

Patrick Mahomes has built a dynasty with the Kansas City Chiefs, and it seems like the general manager of the New York Giants is envious of the AFC West team and their star quarterback.

The New York Giants are currently not on the same level as the Kansas City Chiefs. The team’s general manager is acutely aware of this situation and has criticized his own team while praising Patrick Mahomes and the AFC West club.

The Giants have not been the same since Eli Manning‘s retirement. In 2019, the talented quarterback decided to end his remarkable career, delivering two Super Bowl titles to New York during his 16-year tenure.

Unfortunately, his departure left a huge gap to fill for the NFC East club. The team has struggled to become a competitive franchise once again, with a roster that doesn’t seem close to contending for a title in the near future.

Schoen specifically judged the club’s offensive line from last year. He said that Daniel Jones, their starting quarterback, was not well protected and that not even Patrick Mahomes would have been able to succeed behind that line.

“He didn’t have much of a chance this year,” Schoen said. “That’s legit. The core guys that were gonna play together played 60 snaps together. Miami, we got three f—ing practice squad guys playing for us. You could have Pat Mahomes, and he can’t f—iing win behind that.”
