jetsons Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Many in the league say time & time again there isn't a QB whose acumen is equal to that of Eli's when it comes to football... Obviously he comes from a football family with Father & brother Both acclaimed QB's in their day.... What would you think of him as Sam's teacher... Me, personally I would welcome it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

QB is required to move, something he never did. no offense but that makes like Zero sense... Moving & "Knowing" the QB position have nothing to do with each other... preparing plays where the QB can roll out and use his athletic ability is not a "learning" ability it is a skill the QB has or does not.. . Learning the position of QB is something Completely different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beerfish Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 You have had a long successful career Eli what do you want to do next? "Well I have always dreamed of coaching under Hobbit Loggains and Adam Gase, the guy my brother made relevant. I've also had a real hankering to coach Mike White and David Fales as Gase and Loggains have told me they are looking after Sam Darnold. Wait, is Luke Falk still on the team? I think I could fix him." 1 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jet_Engine1 Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Dude worth around $200M, just retired, will get offers for.some nice, cushy studio shows as an analyst.

About the QB position which in the Most Difficult to learn of Any sport... which means he can teach Sam a lot... running/sliding is really not something you "teach" a QB... either they have the skill or they don't... all QB's have their own way of dealing with the pass rush when it happens... some do it well & some not so well... Sam does it well imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

14 in Green Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Do you want Eli as Sam's Qb coach.... Do you want Kate Upton to fall in love with you... Do you want to play baseball like Mike Trout... These 3 things have the same chance of happening. Did it ever occur to you that if Eli wanted to mentor a QB, he probably could've signed a five MILLION Dollar contract to mentor and back up Daniel Jones. You know, the guy who plays for the Giants, the team he played his entire career with, and someone he and his family have known since he was a kid. But yeah, lets talk about him coming here instead. Jeez.... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LRJets Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 Eli is one of the few athletes married to his team. He is a N.Y. Giant, and will remain a Giant for life. He earned $252 MM if football.... not going across the field to be a QB coach for the Jets. His intangibles are not coachable, and what's coachable in the position can be be taught by many others. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losmeister Posted January 26, 2020 Share Posted January 26, 2020 what does a "QB COACH" actually do... go over details about footwork? have any of these coaches played? who do you think actually helped a QB really really change his level of play? I can think of only ONE example. Gruden/Gannon.. ie- i tink its at least half malarkey,. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
