Giants wide receiver Golden Tate is laying out the best-case scenario

for the Giants replacing longtime franchise quarterback Eli Manning with rookie first-round pick Daniel Jones.Tate said on SiriusXM NFL Radio that he’s impressed with what he’s seen of Jones Elgton Jenkins Jersey , and believes that for the Giants, the quarterback transition can be as successful as the one the Packers had when the went from Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers.“We’re hoping that he can respond to pressure. If Eli breaks a shoelace or something, he won’t even miss a beat,” Tate said of Jones. “The good news with Dan’s situation is he is sitting right behind a Hall of Fame-type quarterback, so he is going to have an opportunity to learn some incredible tools that can help him in the future. So I hope it’s kind of like that Brett Favre to Aaron Rodgers kind of situation, eventually.”There are, however, some major differences between the Giants’ current situation and the Packers’ situation when Rodgers took the reins from Favre. For starters, the Packers were a good team when Favre left: He led Green Bay to a 13-3 record and NFC Championship Game appearance in his final season with the Packers. The Giants have gone 3-13 and 5-11 the last two years and aren’t expected to be very good this year, either.And, frankly, Manning isn’t as good a quarterback as Favre was, and Jones is highly unlikely to be as good as Rodgers. The comparison may show Tate’s optimism, but it’s not a particularly apt comparison. Matt LaFleur is going to get plenty of national exposure in his first year as Green Bay Packers head coach.More Packers coveragePhotos of the Week: 7/21/19 – 7/27/19Packers rookie Gary’s biggest critic is himselfTop Tweets: Former Badger TJ Watt has impressive four-year transformationPHOTOS: 2019 Green Bay Packers training campPackers’ Rodgers Dexter Williams Jersey , LaFleur ironing out offense, building chemistryThe NFL released the 2019 schedules Wednesday night and the Packers are slotted for five games in prime time, including the previously announced Thursday season opener at Chicago to open the NFL’s 100th season.Green Bay also will play on Thursday night against Philadelphia in Week 5, on Sunday night at Kansas City in Week 8 and has two Monday night affairs, Week 6 vs. Detroit and Week 16 at Minnesota.LaFleur was set up nicely to begin his Green Bay career, as the Packers will play five of their first seven games at home.
