I don't disagree with you at all. Never liked him. However, I just don't see a team dumping a first rounder after two years. They will keep him even if he loses his starting job.

Again. Beathard is 6 yards past the LOS. He literally didn't even move.

Responsible for the WR? FOR WHAT? An illegal forward pass?

i already said that he doesnt care...and no1 on the defense does. he sucks to me

but calling him out on this play is just following the narrative, imo

he made no effort, true
but he wasn't going to bust thru 5 other Giants players and make that play

the whole play was doomed from the beginning, with JPP covering the RB outta the backfield

Ok. But you've always been quick to defend the guy. And I get the college bias, of course.

He's not a ball player. He's an afterthought. He's a guy that you watch in the film room and say, we can game this kid. He's not a threat and we can match him up.

It's ridiculous how obvious he's made it. Yet McAdoo doesn't plant his ass.

Ok, but I'm also the only one in this thread that actually knows the kid a bit and has interacted with him at all. So if I'm not quick to join the witch hunt, I apologize. I agree that his effort has been an absolute joke. I'm just trying to figure out why that is and offer an explanation beyond "oh he's got his money so he doesn't care."

I still believe in the talent. He's pretty young. At the same time he's been an embarrassment professionally this season. So why has that been after at least a somewhat promising rookie season? Just trying to figure that out
Fair enough Kyle  
B in ALB : 11/12/2017 10:32 pm : link
But there's obviously been a dramatic shift since he's turned pro. I'm not doubting that he was a good kid in college I as you say.

But when I see plays like this - and a handful of others dating back to last year - as a coach and former college player, the excuses are extremely limited. And exactly none are justified.
There is no excuse for the effort he's put in  
Kyle in NY : 11/12/2017 10:47 pm : link
this season. None. But I think he's also taking his cues from a number of veterans on that defense who have failed to put in a professional effort since this season fell apart, especially in the secondary

Like I was saying, Eli is a bit of an odd guy. Not a bad kid, just...different. I don't know where his head has been at this season

Influenced by vets to the point of playing and acting like an asshole? Not buying that cop out.

As an aside, I spent some time with Patrick Peterson's dad recently. His team is a shit show too but he's playing his ass off. And he's doing everything else with class (despite blowing up recently because he actually gives a shit).

Not buying the "They made me do it" nonsense.

And actually defend this kid and the effort he is putting forth. This is the second game in a row where he purposely shied away from contact and allowed the opposing team to score. There is zero defense for that
I'm not seeing anybody

defending the effort he's put forth lately

we should be livid at Jenkins. His tackling effort on at least 3 separate plays was awful
How this guy saw the field is mind boggling.

Just like how Jenkins will get the PT next week. Both of these guys need to be benched immediately. When they watch the film last week and see Apple making a business decision, they don't think that allowing that will hurt the team? He should have been benched right then and there. What kind of message are you sending when you allow that?

Same with JJ this week. He should be benched next week for his effort, or lack thereof.
Wasn't Prince described as kind of an "odd" bird?

Any particular reason why Reese seems to like using 1st-round picks on cornerbacks who have odd, immature, not-sure-if-they-love-the-game personalities?

The difference is Jenkins actually was trying earlier this season and was playing well. Apple started the season playing badly, then displayed a bad attitude, and now is giving bad effort. That's 3 strikes. He should be out of the starting lineup and deactivated.

What the fuck is Florios take? I posted a screen shot from my TV.


Florio's take is the same as yours, but was actually posted on PFT one minute after your post. If anything, he's just following YOUR take.

That's what I thought.

Fuckin Florio.
was this characteristic of Apple

noted at all prior to the draft? I don't recall any discussion of it.
oh shit

But Apple was diagnosed with an iron deficiency that prevented him from giving full effort on the field, in the weight room, and in the classroom.

watch me post a link properly - ( New Window )
That is completely different  
Kyle in NY : 11/13/2017 6:48 pm : link
He had a legitimate health issue his freshman year that the OSU docs failed to diagnose for a while. And he was struggling in the weight room and on the practice field as a result

Once it was figured out he had a great spring and took the starting spot heading into his redshirt freshman year. At Ohio State I never noticed any effort issues like what he's put on tape this season
There is no excuse for Apple's play  
LakeGeorgeGiant : 11/13/2017 6:53 pm : link
but let's stop with the nonsense about him being a "panic" selection. That's fucking idiotic. They have a draft board sand he was on top of it.
