Boomer Esiason This Morning

Emil : 11/13/2017 7:21 am
Hard to argue with anything he is saying, and it echoes a lot of what BBI has been saying for the past 12 hours.

- He thinks Eli Apple is the unnamed source and is using his mother's connections with ESPN to funnel information. If true, the young man cannot be on the team next year. He should be benched for his lackluster play anyway.

- The last two games are not on the offense, they have played hard. Last two games are on the defense and unwillingness to play hard.

- He thinks there are players the Giants need to just flat out cut between now and next season. Team can't win with players who are willing to quit on themselves and each other.
Addition by subtraction cutting a lot of these guys

In todays salary cap era you cant just cut players without tying up dead money. Either way the team loses.

Hes not wrong.
I agree completely.......  
GiantBlue : 11/13/2017 7:29 am : link
If it is true about Apple or any other player who lacks the heart to go to battle for your teammates if nothing else....

I would cut him today!

In fact, I would love to see what the Giants would look like this week if Parcells was still the coach. The cancers would be gone before their pampered butts hit the runway back in NJ!

But anymore the inmates run the asylum.

The days of tough coaching are over. They are considered dinosaurs and the PC coaches are now roaming the sidelines.
Apple looks more confused to me about responsibilities

at times than unwilling. Not that it doesn't lead to the same place.
offense playing hard  
fkap : 11/13/2017 7:33 am : link
is not the same as playing effectively. The O is pretty banged up, so a little leeway can be granted, but even if the D showed up, it's still rather iffy that we can score enough points to win.

I think there's a lot of D plays hard for a little bit, sees the O is going to be anemic once again, and just goes through the motions the rest of the game.

which player/players it may be, funneling things to the media.

But Apple makes more sense to me than anyone else I can think of right now. Seems like a very immature dude.

If Boomer is right about the Apple theory, and if, I knew it back then that "outspoken mom" thing would be a problem. Just a very weird thing that people were defending (even on here), just seemed as if there would be a circus like atmosphere approaching.

Even after she said (or tweeted) the first two things, NFL Network had her on there doing an interview and I even remember her having a couple articles on what she was saying. Who cares? She got very annoying quickly.
You don't cut Janoris Jenkins.  
Powerclean765 : 11/13/2017 8:08 am : link
He was getting props as the best CB in football last year.

CB's are mercurial just like WRs.

If the team has a competent HC none of this happens. These guys aren't robots - McAdoo is as bad a coach as you will ever see at this level and this is what happens in the pros. They are doing what's necessary to get him out and Jenkins is one of the few players in a position to do so without hurting his bottom line.

true words.
i don't care who you are, its hard to give 100% at something when you're not playing for anything. people are just trying to stay healthy at this point. the season was over after week 3.

Jenkins is one of the top CB in the league, when motivated.
He is 100% correct  
SomeFan : 11/13/2017 8:24 am : link
Players, coaches, management need to be purged. If only we can do the same with the decision making of the Maras.
If Eli Apple is the unnamed source  
GiantSteps : 11/13/2017 8:44 am : link
one could make the argument that he's a bad Apple
Thats the irony  
Stu11 : 11/13/2017 9:03 am : link
these defensive players that have quit on McAdoo think they are getting it over on him, when in fact they are making horse's asses out of themselves. The Thankfully I was reffing basketball and spared for once the waste of time watching that debacle yesterday, but that display of effort and tackling on the 49'er TD's was beyond embarrassing. To call it high school level would be an insult to high schoolers every where.

You're asking her to not do her job?
I've been saying since Week 1 that the defense was getting a free pass  
Victor in CT : 11/13/2017 9:09 am : link
They need a real HC, someone who has been one at some level. Not some third rate hack who was a position coach to bring his shitty offense here.
Offense playing hard and still can't score.  
Tom from LI : 11/13/2017 9:10 am : link
so who do you cut and who takes their place?

Its easy to say, cut this person and fire this coach. There are ramifications to that.

With the right coach in place could the defense rebound? Maybe.

There is something going on in the locker room that we don't know about here.

Here is what we know as fans and you have to take every report with a grain of salt.

1. The offense although a tad bit better than earlier in the season still can't score more than 17 ... (late touchdown yesterday was a mop up time score.) This is scheme and not tailoring your system to your players strengths is the root of of one of the main issues.


2. Why does it always take 5 to 7 games year after year for this team to gel. We always seem to gel when its too late.

3. The Defense has flat out quit.

4. It would be nice for the offense to step up and carry the team despite what the defense is doing. We don't see that happening.

5. Ben and Jerry seemed pretty pleased with themselves after last year when the only 2 differences were the team was historically healthy and they were getting the lucky bounce and winning games they were losing the year prior. Nothing was fixed.

6. in a league made for offensive production and scoring, we do neither.

7. Mac got this position because of Odell's productivity. If we did not draft Odell, chances are we don't have Mac as a coach.

8. we have only won one game without Odell. Yet when he was in it seemed Mac's game plan was for the defense to keep it close and hope for a big Odell play to win the game.

So we can say get rid of this player, fire this coach. That is a major knee jerk reaction to which I wouldn't trust this regime to get right. If I was Mara, I would tell them they cannot cut anybody. I would reassign Reese (I doubt he gets fired) and start looking for a replacement.

Let Mac finish this out. We end up 1 & 15 so be it. At least we will draft 2nd. We just can't screw this draft up with reaches. Jerry has to be removed from that position.



Isn't Boomer contradicting himself?  
BillKo : 11/13/2017 9:13 am : link
He was hard on Manning last Monday, said he missed throws, fumbled, etc..............
Well...  
ryanmkeane : 11/13/2017 9:18 am : link
regardless of how shitty the situation is, that's pretty messed up for Boomer to suggest Apple/his mom are the culprit without any evidence. He just threw that out there?

I'm not sure what your point is. Someone close to the team is feeding her information that sure as hell looks to be true when you watch the games. The players and coaches saying the information is "fake" sure doesn't hold water now does it?

In fact, the defense and coaches seemed to be far more passionate about finding out the "leakers" than tackling yesterday.

Jim in Tampa : 11/13/2017 10:36 am : link
is the one talking to ESPN, just because of his mom's connections, as if no other player could find a way to get a message to an ESPN reporter.

Could it be Apple? Of course it could, but why speculate without even a shred of evidence?

There were a few of us that pointed out she was going to be a problem back when she pulled that first BS move. We proceeded to get killed on here for pointing out the possibility of her being a problem

I didn't hear Boomer, so he may well not have implied it. But some folks on this thread sure as hell are.
