I'm pretty sure he was hated on all three fronts too. He was brought in to install an offense that was ill fated for the personnel on this team, especially the "beloved" quarterback and had neither the persona nor acumen to function as a head coach. Let's see just how long it'll take for him to get another NFL Head Coaching gig. Bet it'll be a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your “ opinion “ says their line was worse than ours ? Because the OL rankings I see has the giants ahead of us. Their line got off to a slow start, solder was bad in the beginning, but finished strong. Giants went after top OL fa, drafted a beast top of 2nd round. Unlike ours their gm is committed to building a strong OL. Eli didn’t play that bad last yr, he played horrible yr before and he looks more like 48, not 38. He is not worth 24 million dollars. If you think that you are definitely a big Eli fanboy lol.. it is a situation like we had with Ryan Fitzpatrick. He came off a good yr in 2010, but everyone knew he wasnt going to produce same numbers most likely. His value to other teams was a lot less than it was to jets. If he was a FA, nobody is signing the turtle with noodle arm old man Eli. He had a great career, but you don’t pay a player for his past. They should dump Eli and sign nick Foles. Then they are set at qb for not just next yr. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly.. we know a tremendous all around rb like Barkley made eli look better, but he is not a qb who can carry a team. He is far from that now. He was never very athletic and mobile, but he is the least mobile in the nfl by far now. With not a strong arm, there is just little eli can handle. He racked up a lot of cheap yardage when because so many of their games teams had a nice lead on them, so they played the prevent D. And Barkley took a lot of 2 yard dinks and turned them into 80 yards.. I don’t think Eli is a starter on any team next yr Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have made one postseason since 2012 and in that 11-5 year Eli led an offense with Odell Beckham Jr to a whopping 17 PPG. I hope Eli is around another 5+ years, hopefully the Giants are dumb enough to keep thinking they can win with him without incredible defense.

I agree neither is elite and neither ever were Ellie but flacco led Baltimore's SB run, the Giants D led both if Eli's. Flacco won playoff games in that run when his D allowed 28 and 29.

Eli deserves credit for the 2 SB winning drives and that's where the clutch label comes from but if the D doesn't hold Brady and NE to 14 & 17 then they have no shot to win.

Has a noodle arm. Some qbs age doesn’t effect them as much, not case with Eli. I’d be shocked if giants do not cut him. Sign Foles, or another qb.

I think it makes sense to keep him if they draft a QB in the first round. Eli could start the year then when they are out of the playoff race by October like usual they can transition to the rookie.

They actually believed with Barkley and boosting the OL, they could win games with Eli and make a playoff push. As great as Barkley was, he still couldn’t get them out of the cellar. Huge miscalculation by giants. Had they been more realistic and saw they would still suck in 08 even with a amazing talent in Barkley, they would have definitely taken darnold. Now this year’s qb crop is NOWHERE near the talent level of last yr.. I think they try to sign Foles, instead of going with a non sure thing in one of these rookies..
