He’s in the midst of a non-sensical, bitter ex girlfriend multi tweet rant. Again. Gettleman getting a first, third and peppers for this clown will down as an all time great move. Getting off the titanic before it hit the iceberg
See that is why you are playing Madden... It wasn't just off the field. Do you remember he fighting with a net, but don't worry he made up with that net and asked it to marry him in the middle of a game. He freaks out if he isn't getting enough looks, he takes shots at his QB, he dogs it plenty of times especially with blocking.... It isn't just off the field.
I remember the game he fought with the net. He had 7 catches for 121 yards and generally whipped Josh Norman's ass all day.
I remember the game he asked the net to marry him. He had 8 catches for 222 yards and 2 TDs, including the game winning score.
It's funny the things some people choose to focus on.
It is funny that is what you remember. Do you remember we lost that 7 catches for 121 yard game where he fought with a net? Seems that is more important to remember. You remember the backlash and distraction that caused? The next 2 games we also lost as he caught 3 passes for 23 yards and then 5 for 56 yards. Very select stat memories you choose.
Something that I think a lot of people are ignoring Â
is that the OBJ that we traded was not the OBJ who was the most electric player in the NFL in past years. After his injury, his game changed. He didn't break short passes for huge gains anymore. He stepped out of bounds rather than extending plays. He made business decisions to avoid contact. And he sat out the last four games of the season with a bruise.
A BRUISE.
Still a heck of a receiver. But he was not the same player in 2018 that he had been in the past. Maybe he will revert to form with Cleveland. Maybe not. But let's not pretend that the OBJ that the Giants traded away for an impressive haul of younger, cheaper talent was the best WR in the NFL. He hasn't been that in a long time -- if ever.

Do you think they lost the Washington game because of Odell's antics or supposed lack of effort as opposed to Manning/Will Tye turnover in the end zone or Shane Vereen's fumble on their final possession? Do you actually believe they lost on the road back to back weeks to a really good defensive team in Minnesota and a playoff team in Green Bay because of backlash and distraction? The Giants had the second best record in the NFC that year... they must've done a good job handling all of that distraction and backlash.
Moss, Owens, and Brown, there seems to be a bit of a difference.
All three of those guys were constant complainers in the media about their teams and about how they are not being treated fairly, and they were doing it while they were on those teams. As I remember it, they called out players on their own teams, complained about their QBs repeatedly, and picked fights with ownership. Also, with Moss on Oakland, he was specifically dinged for not giving any effort.
While Beckham is also someone who loves the spotlight and is as into his "brand" as the others, he didn't dog it on the field and it was constantly chirping to the media about Eli or the coaches, and he didn't have other teammates of his calling him out for his negative impact.
Just want to be contrary. There is visual evidence of him not giving his all on an onside kick. He quit on the team by not playing the last four games of the season when he was able to. He gave that interview where he pretty much blatantly said he wasn’t happy with where he was and threw his QB under the bus as well as reports that he wasn’t happy playing with Eli. He can’t keep his emotions in check and it greatly affects his play on the field.
I’m unsure of it at the moment but I think the ankle injury took away his extra ‘burst’ that made him special, he didn’t seem right last season. It’s either the injury or his emotions from losing/poor offense taking away his extra effort. He went from looking like one of the greatest ever to just ‘really good’ past season. If he really lost a bit because of his ankle injury then he is absolutely not worth $20 million/year. If not for Barkley, I think they would’ve kept him, Barkley made him expendable and the team needed the resources to improve.

The backlash and distraction doesnt exist if the team is good enough to win football games.
The bottom line is the team sucked. Not that horsing around with a kicking net sent a winning team down a path of self destruction. They were in games they should not have been because of him.
To me there were distractions and backlash when Shockey was here while being a good football team.
Shockey was bad for our offensive chemistry. There is an ex offensive lineman who testified to that. He specifically said once Shockey left, Eli flourished.

Actually the team won 11 games that year. May have won more if OBJ wasn't fighting with a net and the backlash it presented. I mean clearly if you take out the net game and the two that followed where there was so much drama over it... we went 11-2 in all other games.
and off field BS. He will never play like he played for us in his first contract. Keep the wild ones as far as I am concerned. Great move by DG getting all that cap money and players for a very talented "look at me" primadona. MO. There will be no third contract for him IMO.
