The Heir Apparent to Eli has arrived...

in the form of Kyle Lauletta. I see a lot of Phil Simms in this kid who doesn't have a cannon of an arm but all the other intangibles. Pat Shurmur will be able to mold him to his liking.

Please check out this scouting report here and let me know what you this: https://twitter.com/OptimumScouting/status/990271990815748096

the 3rd or 4th time I've read the Phil Simms/Lauletta comparison on this site. I hope they've all been the same guy because it makes zero sense.

I came across this video of the Giants helping to get Bobby Johnson his Superbowl ring back. It's really a must-watch for any fan, and a great reminder of the quality of the organization, and the Once-A-Giant, etc. sentiment.

when the Giants bring in a vet QB to camp.....



Jay Cutler is available


Jints Central, for all of their lunacy, is smart enough to avoid Cutler.

Maybe it's the diabetes, because that can impact your mood even if you are taking medication to manage that horrible disease, but Cutler just doesn't seem to have the leader factor to run that position in the NFL.

Unless of course John Mara ends up sitting next to Cutler on a flight and they become friends, and then Mara runs calls up Gettleman and insists he sign his new best friend.

That would be sooooooo Jints Central, amirite?
Simms era receivers

Mark Ingram was actually pretty talented. He exploded in Miami.

I can't even think of anyone else who was within the spectrum of a quality no1 WR.

Stacey Robinson was fire on the original Tecmo Bowl though.

Lionel Manuel was close. He was really good in ‘88.

But your overall point is well taken.
Receivers definitely aren't as good as today's Giants

but that O-Line back then?...

Oats
Goodfrey
Ard
Nelson
Benson

They were awesome. Joe Morris didn't suck either.
Webb and Kyle will be battling to

be the future back up because none of those qb's have shown anything and chances are they won't

But they might have to start once Eli is cut and we will have plenty of terrible years to get a real qb.

Or Maybe Mara will have to trade 3 1's to get a qb who might be no better than Darnold, Rosen, Allen
Manuel was a solid possession receiver

Not a big play guy, though. Odessa Turner always looked like a guy who had a lot of ability but he was injured most of the time.
Stephen Baker...

the Touchdown Maker. Guy was always making catches for big yardage. Just didn't get the ball enough. Then again, being 5'8" 150 lbs makes it tough to be a #1... ;)
