A possible scenario..

Tark10 : 1/18/2018 4:00 pm
Lets assume Shurmur is our new coach. Keenam and Shurmur have significant history together. Shurmur campaigns for Keenam in the offseason. The Giants now have a coach and a proven NFL quarterback in Keenam. Giants trade down a few spots and pick up a draft pick and draft that guard from Notre Dame. Eli gets traded or is released because Keenam is a veteran. I'm not saying I would like this scenario because I like the Vikes as well. Thoughts?
Don’t want, and they don’t need, Keenum

Significant history? Its been like 12 games. If that.
The backlash that was caused for benching Eli  
Giants in 07 : 1/18/2018 4:02 pm : link
Would be magnified x10 if he was released for Case fucking Keenum.
Keenum is so great  
YAJ2112 : 1/18/2018 4:03 pm : link
you can't even spell his name correctly. Nice work!
Keenum is a dome QB  
JonC : 1/18/2018 4:06 pm : link
until he proves otherwise, undersized with an average at best arm.
makes no sense no dump Eli and overpay Keenum.  
Victor in CT : 1/18/2018 4:06 pm : link
pass.
I just don't understand why people want to get rid of Eli  
Jay on the Island : 1/18/2018 4:07 pm : link
for Case Keenum. His lack of arm strength would be really exposed playing in Metlife. He also has the luxury of playing behind a good offensive line, running game, and a great defense. He is not a franchise QB and you certainly do not pass on the opportunity to take a potential franchise QB with the 2nd pick because of Case Keenum.
Why cant Eli  
MotownGIANTS : 1/18/2018 4:12 pm : link
win the starting job? Look Eli is the man and I have future's bet that he gets 1 more ring .... BUT .... Lets take out the emotion of it all dude is declining and we need to look at the future and Keenum or Bridgewater is it. Best case scenaro is Teddy's knee is good Vikings win the SB want to keep Keenum and we get him via FA /w an OL as well. Giving up a true comp for #1 QB better OL and flexibility going into the draft.
Keenum  
Marty866b : 1/18/2018 4:13 pm : link
Can't see his throws cutting threw the teeth of the winds at MetLife.
And if the Vikings franchise Keenum?  
djstat : 1/18/2018 4:17 pm : link
UGH. Can we stop with this nonsense.

you can get much cheaper versions of Case Keenum to be

caretakers. Ryan Fitzpatrick and Josh McCown come to mind.

is it should be COULD be it ... I'd rather have TB of the 2 .... and I think he will be available when it is all said and done.
trading or releasing eli  
CGiants07 : 1/18/2018 4:31 pm : link
isnt possible with the amount of holes we have were going to need all of it to be decent as id assume we are going to try to win next year
Keenum is a good backup  
mrvax : 1/18/2018 4:35 pm : link
QB. No more, no less.
And you think there was a fan/sponsor/season ticket holder uproar  
Beer Man : 1/18/2018 4:40 pm : link
When they benched Eli to start Smith
Happy for keenum...hope him all the best  
George from PA : 1/18/2018 4:41 pm : link
But I would hate to sign him as a FA
Watching Keenum in the playoffs,  
DonQuixote : 1/18/2018 4:56 pm : link
makes me wonder how he put up those numbers this year...I think he will get schemed back to reality next year. I am rooting for him, great story...
Minnesota's defense is near dominant  
Chris684 : 1/18/2018 5:06 pm : link
For all the talk about Keenum being a "player" and Shurmur being the QB whisperer, we should acknowledge that. Pretty easy to stay within yourself and your talent when you have that to fall back on.
Crazy Idea  
Bruner4329 : 1/18/2018 5:13 pm : link
So you are willing to spend a boat load on this guy who basically has had one decent year in his whole career. I am sure he is going to be looking for a big pay day as well off this one year career year. Come on some common sense here.
ok.. Not saying I want this to happen...  
Tark10 : 1/18/2018 5:44 pm : link
Excuse the spelling error. All I am saying here is Shurmer and Keenum have a strong connection. AND.. it isn't 12 games. They have history with the Rams as well. I'm not advocating the possibility. I'm merely proposing a possible scenario. I'm a die hard Eli fan as well. REEELAX!
Webb might be as good as

They gain cap space by cutting Eli, not sure how that prevents them from filling holes

I could have worded that a bit better ... could be... I would prefer Teddy we know he has the good question is the status of his knee. Keenum is a tier-1 game manager we fix the OL get a stud RB to go with OBJ, EE and shep Keenum would be just fine. The D returns to form and we are well rounded.
