This^^^

The Jets moving on from Sam Darnold is also inevitable at some point.

I get it. And agree. Just throwing it out there for discussion since I had yet to see it posted.

Mr dehydration must be texting late into the night.

and not record wise. He was selected to ride out his contract and now requires transparency by the organization and owners to make hard changes. However, if I were Eli everytime he throws a catchable pass to ODB or others on the crew and they f up the route or drop the ball he should get in their face and call them out on the bullshit. Its time for the malcontents to be part of the solution or shut up. Personally we need to move on from Eli, but some of these guys organizing soft coupes or mutiny are garbage.

well said

Is by far the biggest clown reporter out there. Consistently wrong. Remember his report about having sources inside Coughlins circle and reporting he was done with football and wanted to retire?

Way to see his career end with the Giants.

Eli Manning the target of frustration by his own teammates. Did not think we ever see that

complaining in multiple venues?

you are reluctant to consider that turns out to be the answer.

seem like there is. He says a source who spoke to some Giants players said a QB change wouldn't be unwelcome. That source could easily be Jordan Raanan or any other beat reporter giving their opinion to LaCanfora.

Why would they reach a boiling point when they’re still trying to learn. Like Snacks said last season, own up to it. Don’t sneak around like a rat.

I've been super, super hard on Eli this year - but again - this is just more stupid, recycled bullshit twisted in a way to generate clicks and discussion when there's no substance behind it.

LaCanfora sucks.

What is that variable?

Which I think was the point of keeping Tanney and Lauletta. Neither are ready to step into real game action. There is no choice but to stick with Eli whether you like it or not. At some point, we should throw Lauletta out there and see what he has.

At the end of the day, with as bad as the OL is, it really doesn't matter who is playing QB.

I lived through the 70s, with the likes of Morton, Golsteyn and Piscarcik at QB... Granted none were very good, but the OL was awful then too. Then in the Brown, Graham, Kanell years, the OL sucked again...

Is it just coincidence that everytime the OL sucks, the QBs take all the blame? Not that I am defending Manning, but fix the damn OL first, then build around it...

Outside of the fact he rarely throws a pass that they can catch...

Nothing divides a team more than a player who isn't performing up to par being placed in a job when his performance doesn't match up. Any other player would get benched, and they know it

at QB.

Frank, I wasn’t taking a shot at you. That was directed at LaCanfora. Sorry if I wasn’t clear.

Is woefully vague on specifics. Who in the locker room expressed frustration? How many players actually boiled over? Another shit stirring report.

Win or lose, the QB usually shoulders too much blame or gets too much credit.

All good. I understood what you were saying.

with Eli so it is not a stretch to imagine that in the locker room.

The signs on the wall say the Giants are sticking with Eli as the starter for this year. The reason I say that is I imagine if they were thinking of giving KL a shot at some point, he would be elevated to the backup roll to take more snaps during practice in preparation.
