Eli.....how long?

clydeman1 : 9/14/2014 10:52 am
Purely hypothetical......but if Eli continues to struggle and languish in mediocrity, how many games/losses do you think before he gets benched? How long do you think Coach C/Off. C Ben will tolerate? 2 and 5 at the bye? 3 and 4?
After today, It's the Nassib era

It might. Here's crossing 1000 fingers praying it doesn't!
I think the people who want to see Nassib will because of an

Eli injury. Then they may eat crow if he can't handle first team defenses and there is no other option.
I would think at the bye.  
Giants Fan in Steelers Land : 9/14/2014 11:04 am : link
But if he plays like he did last week he won't be benched this year. He'll need to actually show he is the problem and not the parts around him to be benched.

The coaches understand this is a work in progress so making a qb change early would be counterproductive.

Yeah. Probably Nassib starts next week and Eli Manning rides the pine.
THATS IT!!  
Sehorn : 9/14/2014 11:08 am : link
its all ELI's fault, right BBI??? thats the ONLY problem with the offense...
Christ make it stop
If Coughlin and Eli are both gone  
armsteadeatslittlekids : 9/14/2014 11:08 am : link
who will Reese have left to blame?
Eli does not get benched this season unless his play is so bad  
Reese's Pieces : 9/14/2014 11:09 am : link
that the team can't win any games and Eli is embarrassing himself.

In that unlikely case they would invent an injury for him and put him on the sidelines for that reason.
Under no circumstances was Eli the issue

he can run for his life better (and is more expendable) than Eli.

Well actually missed on a lot of early passes in the 1st quarter. Then he settled in as best the chit Oline allowed. He did OK, IMO.

yep...
Eli will get the year to prove himself in this offense…..  
Simms11 : 9/14/2014 11:27 am : link
if he falters this year or has shown no progress by 4th quarter of the season, you could expect a QB competition in camp next year IMO, as Eli will be going into his final contract year anyway.
They might bench him

just to save his life.

Doomster : 9/14/2014 11:54 am : link
then his contract ends....then you make a decision whether to extend it....

Depends on the circumstances  
Beer Man : 9/14/2014 12:11 pm : link
Need to give him at least 8 games as that is about what it takes for a team to adapt to a new O-system. You also have to look at the entire O. Is he constantly running for his life, or does he have the time and is making bad decisions?
Eli si not perfect  
gmen4ever : 9/14/2014 12:13 pm : link
But is not our biggest problem. Still believe in the guy and would bet a few dollars he NEVERS gets benched for Nassib or any other QB for that matter.
I say halftime today

fire Reese after the game and TC on Tuesday. Force Mara to sell his share by next Sunday. That should satisfy most

the only problem, but he's the only solution. Some truth to that.
Nassib will get some work this season  
HomerJones45 : 9/14/2014 12:31 pm : link
in blowouts. He will be entering the 3rd year of his rookie contract next season, and they need to find out whether he can play in this league or if they need to spend more draft choices at the position.

They also need to take a hard-hearted look at Eli during the season and decide how much more there is in the tank. He isn't 100% the problem, but they will need to decide whether he is part of the solution. This is an evaluation season for him too.

OL is a bigger problem than Eli, the WRs, or the TEs. But Reese is the biggest problem of all. If the offense shits the bed again today, especially if the OL can't block and pick up simple stunts, then there will rightly be howls for Reese's head.
Eli?
