That, of course, means your favorite post-game review — “Kudos & Wet Willies” — is back. Let’s get to it.Kudos to ...Daniel Jones — Um, gee, this one was a hard call. You may have heard by now that Jones went 5-for-5 for 67 yards and a touchdown pass in a one-series debut that was perhaps shortened by Mother Nature unleashing her fury on MetLife Stadium in the form of a 59-minute weather delay. Jones put a dent in the arguments by those who think the Giants made a mistake by selecting him No. 6 overall. Quarterback competition/controversy or not, his play ratcheted up the volume for those arguing he should play sooner rather than later and turned up the heat on Eli Manning.Corey Ballentine — The rookie sixth-round pick missed a tackle, had a pass interference penalty called on him and muffed his first kickoff return opportunity. But, forget all that. Boy, is this an impressive young man and a kid who is looking more and more like a terrific find for the Giants as a sixth-round pick out of Washburn.Ballentine had an outstanding interception [url=http://www.thegiantsfansclub.com/daniel-jones-jersey/]Daniel Jones Jersey Boys[/url] , running stride for stride with Tim White and making a nice catch of a ball thrown by Davis Webb. He had a pass defensed. Don’t overlook his special teams work, either. He had a tackle and gave a glimpse of potential as a kickoff returner with a 40-yard return from deep in the end zone. The kid is fast, and even more impressively he gets to top speed quickly.Jake Carlock — An undrafted free agent from LIU Post, Carlock has become a “team favorite,” per coach Pat Shurmur. His deflection, catch and 59-yard touchdown return of a Davis Webb pass set off a sideline celebration.“I know as a defender, once you get a pick, you never want to get hawked down from behind,” Carlock said. “So, I was running as fast as I could. After I scored and was celebrating, I couldn’t even catch my breath. It was a good time.”Carlock added a sack and certainly improved his long-shot chances of making the roster.Alex Tanney and Kyle Lauletta — The backups to the backup quarterback were, obviously, overshadowed by Jones’ spectacular debut on Thursday. Both [url=http://www.Giantsjerseyproshop.com/george-asafo-adjei-jersey/]Color Rush George Asafo-Adjei Jersey[/url] , though, had excellent nights themselves. Tanney, playing two full quarters, went 14-of-19 for 190 yards, one touchdown and a 122.7 passer rating. Lauletta went 9-of-12 for 116 yards yards, one touchdown and a 132.6 passer rating.Rutgers, averaged 44.7 yards on three punts. His net average, though, was just 27.3. The coverage may not have been great, but the Giants have to do better than that in the punt game.Mother Nature — A 59-minute severe weather delay? In an August preseason game? You’ve gotta be kidding me. When the Giants drafted quarterback Daniel Jones sixth overall, they hoped he’d be the long-term replacement for Eli Manning. In the short term, he may be the replacement for Kyle Lauletta.Although the Giants took Lauletta in the fourth round of last year’s draft, they may be ready to move on from him. Pat Leonard of the writes that Lauletta’s roster spot is not secure for the next four months.Lauletta got on the field enough last year to attempt five passes [url=http://www.Giantsjerseyproshop.com/george-asafo-adjei-jersey/]Youth George Asafo-Adjei Jersey[/url] , completing zero of them and throwing an interception. After Lauletta’s poor outing in the regular season, coach Pat Shurmur made a sarcastic comment to members of the media who had been wondering if Lauletta could be the heir apparent to Manning.“I’ve fielded enough questions regarding Kyle Lauletta that those of you that were interested in seeing him, hopefully you got a chance to see what you were looking for,” Shurmur said.Manning and Jones have two roster spots locked up, and if the Giants keep more than two quarterbacks, the third is more likely to be Alex Tanney, who has a bit more experience, or Eric Dungey, who is a good enough athlete to get some snaps as a running back or receiver. Lauletta probably needs a great camp to have a roster spot when the regular season starts.
