Not sure of Eli's contract situation, but I am guessing the starting QB for the 2018 Browns, will be him. Ha!

I think McAdoo should lose his job immediately, and have Spags interim til next year.

Problem with that is that the players hate Spags more than McAdoo. He's been one of the major issues this season

To put it as a friend of mine did, Eli being benched for Geno Smith is like Sean McVay's girlfriend dumping him for NJ Governor Chris Christie ...

Or like benching a mongoloid for the Missing Link......
 
OK... the NYG franchise is starting to look like the Rams last year.
 
So you draft Davis Webb and don’t give him a shot? You know what you have in Geno Smith.

Wow... so, let me get this right.

McAdoo hatches the ingenious idea to bench Manning.

The players accept that stupid move because they don't want to have Spagnuolo as their HC?

Is that how far the franchise has fallen?

Can't believe the Mara's and Tisch's haven't finally had enough.
 
Sad to say But Eli's career is probably over, If not completely, at least with the gIANTS. They will be in complete rebuild mode, FO, HC, QB, etc. etc. etc.

Wait, what?
Just saying that if (When) they fire McAdoo, I cant see how they name Spags because the players hate him.
 
I don't watch the Giants unless they are playing the Rams, so not sure what the problem is. I do know their season is over, from what I saw on NFL Network: Eli hasn't looked sharp, so why not see what you have in backups?
Manning has had a great run but to keep him in just because of some record (that is unattainable BTW) is silly in my opinion.

OK... got it.

Who's their OC? Rams put in Fassell. There are other options past Spagnuolo.

Are you secretly trying to rag on Spags still? :cool:
 
The last time the Giants played a game without Eli starting it was Warner starting. Also Jared Goff had turned 10 years old about 20 days before that game.
 
Nice job giants that's really gonna help you with future qbs.. manning wins 2 Superbowl and you bench him for GEMO SMITH .

If eli wanted to sit so he didn't get killed behind that horrible line , my opinion would be different .

If they blow it up , can we have jack rabbit?

Because you play to win the games with the best players you have. Its not pre-season and the games count. I'm sure the guy whos dropping a grand to take his family of 4 to the game isnt preferring to see Geno Smith

This is so dumb. Whether you are a Giants fan or not, this just isnt right. Yes he has not played well all year. Who would when you lose three of your WRs for the season and your RBs aint about sh1t. Speaking of Spags, this Giants team reminds me of the 2011 season. Injuries galore! I do not think this is right in any way.

I can see Eli going to a team next year like the Broncos, Cards, or Jags next year. Jags would be #1 because of Coughlin
