EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. -- It was Sept. 10, 2023, the first game for Daniel Jones and the New York Giants since the quarterback signed a four-year, $160 million contract seven months earlier. Jones was pressured on 23 dropbacks and sacked seven times in a 40-0 home loss to the Dallas Cowboys . His top pass protector, left tackle Andrew Thomas , injured his hamstring and didn't return until the second half of that season. Things went poorly for Jones and the Giants after he signed that mega-deal, and the deterioration happened quickly. Jones was released on Friday, 439 days after the dismantling by the Cowboys. He'd won three of 16 starts, throwing 10 touchdown passes and 13 interceptions before being benched in favor of Tommy DeVito . Jones, 27, went to Giants ownership on Friday to ask for his release one day after spending part of Thursday's practice playing scout-team safety. The Giants and Jones decided it was best for the parties to split with seven games remaining in the season. Editor's Picks Could Daniel Jones still have success in the NFL? His case for another shot, plus five team fits 3h Ben Solak "Of course, this season has been disappointing for all and, of course, I wish I could have done more," Jones said Thursday during what was essentially his goodbye news conference. "I'm 100% accountable for my part. I did not play well enough, consistently enough, to help the team get the results." It barely got better after that loss to the Cowboys. Jones did play well in the second half the following week in Arizona, but by Week 4 of the 2023 season, Jones could be seen by a national audience getting sacked 10 times and throwing a pick-six in a blowout loss on "Monday Night Football" to the Seattle Seahawks at MetLife Stadium. He was never healthy again in 2023. Jones hurt his neck while getting pummeled late in a loss to the Miami Dolphins the following week. He returned four weeks later only to tear the ACL in his right knee in the first quarter against the Las Vegas Raiders . Just like that, his season was over. So was any viable chance of at succeeding in New York. "Probably part of it was injuries," DeVito said. "Last year [Jones] got dinged up a bunch during the games, probably wasn't fully healthy at all times. But was still going out there and giving it his all. Some of the times probably wasn't able to get the best version of himself out there. Probably isn't fair to him but ... when you go out there to play, you go out there to play." Jones will ultimately be judged on the final results, which weren't good since a playoff win in 2022, the most successful season of his career. He finished that season sixth in the NFL with a QBR of 62.9, but ranks 26th among qualifying quarterbacks with a QBR of 53.0 since entering the league in 2019. The Giants flirted with drafting a quarterback this past offseason, a key topic highlighted on HBO's "Hard Knocks," which chronicled the team's preseason. The program showed coach Brian Daboll in a pre-draft meeting being asked if he would trade up for Jayden Daniels . "Daniels?" Daboll said. "I would." General manager Joe Schoen was also heard telling the New England Patriots to keep the Giants in mind if they were going to trade the No. 3 overall pick. Common sense says the Giants were never trading up for a non-quarterback, especially after sources confirmed their strong interest in Drake Maye . The North Carolina product was eventually selected No. 3 overall by the Patriots. Multiple sources close to the quarterback believe the public search for a quarterback affected Jones, placing extra pressure on him early this season. Not only was he coming back from a serious knee injury, but now Jones carried this burden to be successful immediately. Jones clearly wasn't the same quarterback this season as he was in 2022. His accuracy -- never among the biggest concerns with Jones in the past -- was a problem from the start of training camp. At times this summer, he was consistently underthrowing deep balls. In an effort to self-correct, Jones admitted overthrowing. This acknowledgement perhaps detailed the internal battle he was facing post-knee surgery and two neck injuries.

One described it as "weird" at times. The tension seemed to boil to the surface in front of an international audience watching the Giants playing the Carolina Panthers in Germany two weeks ago. Daboll, who took over playcalling this season to try to fix a broken offense, called for a flea-flicker on a third-and-1. Two receivers were wide open but Jones failed to throw the football. Daboll was shown on TV yelling while running up the sideline. After about 20 yards he ran into one of the open wide receivers, Wan'Dale Robinson , and slapped his hand. They both seemed to know that a big play was there to be had. Several Giants players were watching the play together on their phones when the media entered the locker room at Allianz Stadium. It seemed evident at that point the Giants would soon turn the page on Jones, whose QBR this season is a career-worst of 46.5. They surprisingly went to DeVito, the third-stringer and emergency quarterback for every game this season, over second-stringer Drew Lock . Whatever the reasons for that decision, Jones had bottomed out during the team's five-game losing streak, signaling his end with the Giants. He was benched, eventually released. The contract will go down as one of the worst in Giants history. His tenure will ultimately be considered unsuccessful, with one winning season in six years. "Playing in New York didn't help," wide receiver and close friend Darius Slayton said. "The media pressure is so immense on the coach and the players. It's eventually going to deteriorate."

Election Results 2024: Pollster Pradeep Gupta, chairman of the Axis My India, whose exit poll predictions turned out to be accurate for Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections said that it's the result of his team's hardwork on the ground. Axis My India had predicted that the Mahayuti would win somewhere between 178-200 seats in Maharashtra elections while in Jharkhand, the JMM-led alliance would repeat the government with JMM+ winning 53 seats and BJP getting restricted to 25. Axis My India's survey was the only one which bucked the trend as most exit polls predicted a victory for the NDA in Jharkhand also. Speaking to Republic Media Network's Arnab Goswami, Pradeep Gupta said that face to face interviews with the representatives across the demography and geography of the states and doing analysis on whatever they said. We put our weight on different factors including socio economic and released numbers at the time of the exit poll. In both Maharashtra and Jharkhand elections, there was a pro-incumbency. We couldn’t find much people saying that they were discontent or angry with the incumbent leadership, Pradeep Gupta said adding if a government repeats, it only happens on one factor which is delivery, delivery and delivery on the basis of various social welfare schemes, facilities given to farmers, etc. Focussing on Maharashtra, Pradeep Gupta said that the Dalits and Adivasis (tribals) who shifted to the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA) in Lok Sabha came back to support Mahayuti alliance in Assembly elections. He said that 10 per cent of the Dalits, 15 per cent of tribals returned from MVA to Mahayuti. In Maharashtra's Vidarbha region which has a total of 62 seats, the Mahayuti won 50 of them. Pradeep Gupta also mentioned that women voted more for Mahayuti than the Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA). In Mumbai, where the polling increased from 50 in 2019 to 55 per cent in 2024, increased the size of the Mahayuti’s victory as we predicted 200 odd seats but it went upto 230. Pradeep Gupta mentioned that this was their 79th elections out of which they have been accurate on 73 occasions including the US Presidential elections.

The current market price of Godrej Consumer Products is Rs 1130.75. Godrej Consumer Products, incorporated in 2000, is a Large Cap company with a market cap of Rs 115370.49 crore, operating in the FMCG sector. Godrej Consumer Products' key products/revenue segments include Personal Care and Other Operating Revenue for the year ending 31-Mar-2024.

The company has reported net profit after tax of Rs 491.31 crore in the latest quarter. Investment Rationale Godrej Consumer Products Ltd 's (GCPL's) business update for Q3FY25 points to weaker than expected performance. India business is expected to report flat volumes (vs +7-8% in 1H) due to likely volume decline in Soaps (pricing actions impacts wholesale/HH inventory) and moderation in volume growth for HI (delayed winter in North/cyclone in South). While the management had called out possible volume impact on Soaps in its Q2FY25 conference call, unfavourable weather led impact on HI came as a negative surprise. The impact on India EBITDA margins is also likely to be higher than envisaged (temporary downward breach of normative margin range of 24-27% vs earlier commentary of 24-25% margins in near term).

NoneMALAGA, Spain (AP) — The last man to face — and beat — Rafael Nadal in professional tennis, 80th-ranked Botic van de Zandschulp , converted his 10th match point Friday to finally close out a 6-4, 6-7 (12), 6-3 victory over Daniel Altmaier and help the Netherlands reach its first Davis Cup final by sweeping Germany. Tallon Griekspoor, who is ranked 40th, sealed the 2-0 win for the Dutch in the best-of-three-match semifinal by hitting 25 aces and coming back to defeat Jan-Lennard Struff 6-7 (4), 7-5, 6-4. When it ended, appropriately, on an ace, Griekspoor shut his eyes, dropped to his knees and spread his arms wide. “We have been talking about this for two, three years,” Griekspoor said. “We believed in ourselves so much. We always felt like this was possible. To do it now feels unbelievable.” The other semifinal is Saturday, with No. 1-ranked Jannik Sinner and defending champion Italy taking on Australia . The championship will be decided Sunday. “We don’t have that top 5 player. We don’t that top 10 player. We don’t have that top 15 player,” Dutch captain Paul Harhuuis said. “But it’s a team effort. ... So proud of these guys.” In Friday's opener, van de Zandschulp was up a set and just a point away from leading 5-2 in the second when Altmaier began playing more aggressively and interacting more with the German fans, yelling and throwing uppercuts or raising his arms after key points. In the tiebreaker, Altmaier managed to save five match points before converting his own fourth set point to extend the contest. But van de Zandschulp — who upset four-time Grand Slam champion Carlos Alcaraz at the U.S. Open — quickly moved out front in the final set, even if he eventually needed five more match points in the last game before serving it out. “At some point, I didn’t know what to do any more on the match points,” van de Zandschulp said. “I had the toughest match of my life on Tuesday (against Nadal), so everything that comes next is maybe a little bit easier.” In the quarterfinals, van de Zandschulp outplayed Nadal for a 6-4, 6-4 result that marked the end of the 22-time Grand Slam champion’s career because the Netherlands went on to eliminate Spain 2-1. The 38-year-old Nadal announced last month that the Davis Cup would be his final event before retiring. Presumably because people purchased tickets ahead of time with plans to watch Nadal compete in the semifinals, there were hundreds of unoccupied blue or gray seats surrounding the indoor hard court at the Palacio de Deportes Jose Maria Martina Carpena in southern Spain on Friday. Now truly a neutral site, the place was not nearly as loud and rowdy as on Tuesday, although there were shouts of “Vamos, Rafa!” that drew laughter while van de Zandschulp played the 88th-ranked Altmaier. It took Griekspoor more than 75 minutes and nearly two full sets to figure out how to break No. 43 Struff and then did it twice in a row — to lead 6-5 in the second set, and then go up 1-0 in the third. That was plenty, because Griekspoor saved the only two break points he faced. The Netherlands hadn’t been to the semifinals since 2001. The Germans — whose best current player, two-time major finalist Alexander Zverev, is not on the team in Malaga — have won three Davis Cups, but not since 1993, when 1991 Wimbledon champion Michael Stich led them to the title.

NoneRupert Murdoch's audacious bid to cement his eldest son's control over one of the world's most influential media empires has failed, a US report said Monday. The first family of news -- commanding a stable that includes Fox News, The Wall Street Journal and a host of British and Australian media -- had been the inspiration for the hit TV series "Succession." Like the fictional version, this real-life fight pitted the children of a powerful patriarch against each other for who should be the face and the voice of the empire after the old man dies. Murdoch, now 93, had long intended that his children inherit the empire, and jointly decide its direction. The eldest daughter, Prudence, has had little involvement in the family business, but at various times the other three -- Lachlan, James and Elisabeth -- have all been considered as successors. But in recent years Murdoch senior had reportedly grown concerned that Fox News -- the crown jewels of the collection -- might drift away from its lucrative right-wing moorings after his death, to reflect the more centrist views of James and Elisabeth. He had therefore sought to designate Lachlan -- who currently heads Fox News and News Corp -- as the controlling player in the wider business. That had required rewriting the terms of an irrevocable trust that passed power to the four siblings jointly, stripping three of them of voting power, while allowing them to continue to benefit financially. Rupert Murdoch had argued that giving control to Lachlan -- who is understood to share his father's worldview -- was in the financial interests of the whole brood. The family intrigue played out behind closed doors in a Nevada courtroom, where Murdoch senior and his four children were understood to have given several days' evidence in September. In a decision filed at the weekend, probate commissioner Edmund J. Gorman Jr. said the father and son had acted in "bad faith" in trying to rewrite the rules, The New York Times reported, citing a copy of the sealed court document. The plan to alter the trust's structure was a "carefully crafted charade" to "permanently cement Lachlan Murdoch's executive roles." "The effort was an attempt to stack the deck in Lachlan Murdoch's favor after Rupert Murdoch's passing so that his succession would be immutable," the Times cited the ruling as saying. "The play might have worked; but an evidentiary hearing, like a showdown in a game of poker, is where gamesmanship collides with the facts and at its conclusion, all the bluffs are called and the cards lie face up. "The court, after considering the facts of this case in the light of the law, sees the cards for what they are and concludes this raw deal will not, over the signature of this probate commissioner, prevail." Murdoch's lawyer, Adam Streisand, did not immediately reply to an AFP request for comment. The ruling is not final, and must now be ratified or rejected by a district judge. That ruling could be challenged, perhaps provoking another round of legal arguments. The complicated structure of the irrevocable trust reflects the colourful familial relationships that shaped Rupert Murdoch's life as he built the multibillion-dollar empire. The trust was reported to have been the result of a deal agreed with his second wife -- mother of Lachlan, Elisabeth and James -- who wanted to ensure her offspring would not be disenfranchised by children Murdoch had with his third wife, Wendi Deng. The Murdoch empire has transformed tabloid newspapers, cable TV and satellite broadcasting over the last few decades while facing accusations of stoking populism across the English-speaking world. Brexit in Britain and the rise of Donald Trump in the United States are credited at least partly to Murdoch and his outlets. hg/nro
