There is a reason Odell is in Cleveland.

Think what you will but it’s not the first time I’m hearing he quit on the Giants last year.
Yeah... but the team was 1-7 halfway through last season

That's no excuse. As one of the supposed leaders of the team and one of it's biggest stars he needs to set an example for the rest of the team.

I wont say he "quit"  
dep026 : 8/14/2019 9:52 am : link
But I bet his willingness to play with some bumps and bruises was a lot less in the last 4 games. Again I stated this as the season ended...

There is a rumor that OBJ texted Shurmur before the Redskins game and said "good luck without me... haha"

Disagree with that vibe - a lot of guys kept playing hard all the way through, and the team played better down the stretch.

I have no opinion on the “Odell quit” suggestion by Boomer, but I can’t think of any other examples of guys who did
.  
arcarsenal : 8/14/2019 9:55 am : link
He had his payday, he had his numbers... once the team had nothing to play for, he seemed to decide that protecting his body was more important than being out there for his team.

Maybe that's not what happened, but it sure seems that way to me... and it's been suggested by a few different people in a few different corners now. Based on the way he's acted at times, it certainly wouldn't surprise me.

No one should want that type of mentality here. No matter how good the player is.
All you need to do is watch the onside kick vs the Bears...

dep026 : 8/14/2019 10:06 am : link
this year with OBJ.

If his team is about to get the ball back with less than 1:00 to go in the half - will he be on the field or getting his IV?

He s getting paid to play, no excuses for quitting,, Symptomatic of what was wrong with that team
And if you watched Eli's interview with Sal Pal  
dep026 : 8/14/2019 10:14 am : link
the statement that rang loudest was Eli hoped one day they could all put this behind them and laugh about it.

But being that OBJ is the only one who did the talking, you can assume that Eli and probably a lot of his teammates didnt support him privately as many think.

If that what the coach wants to see, he has a reason. Which is why you can never believe "the defense is ahead of the
offense" etc. The coach can make the practice anyway he wants for any reasons he wants. Bill Parcells told us this long ago. So tweet what you will it's no more right or wrong than any of your camp tweets.

Perhaps Wheeler practicing with the 3rd team the other day had more to do with easing him back rather than his performance.

I'm just saying I know we look for reasons to fry Odell but this is a reach IMO.

I'm not going to pick on Odell for not recovering from his injury fast enough so that he could have helped us win a extra game or 2 at the end ofast season which ultimately accomplishes nothing other than giving us the 15th or so pick instead of the 6th...

Equating fans and players and putting them on the same playing field is enough to discredit the rest of your post entirely.

What a ridiculous comparison. We're not the ones playing the games and we're not getting paid by the Giants.

If this is the precedent you want to set, then maybe Barkley shouldn't have played any of those last games, either. Heck, just play all backups when you're out of contention... why not go all the way?

It could happen with a first year head coach and someone as disruptive and polarizing as OBJ (still so weird that that is a generally accepted truth now!). But man, that team is pretty stacked offensively and very talented defensively. I also think Mayfield has a personality that's galvanizing to his teammates.

If Barkley was the least bit banged up, I'm sure many would have advocated putting him on the shelf. As you yourself advocated they do with OBJ at the time. If not advocated, at least posed no opposition to the prospect.

I mean we all saw the leg whip he got hurt on. He wasn't fabricating an injury. He did go get checked out at HSS. Was all that a clever ruse?

People are advocating limiting Barkley's touches this year and we haven't even played a game.


I had not heard about Odell texting the coach  
ktinsc : 8/14/2019 4:10 pm : link
Wishing him," good luck without me." if that occurred then I could see the Giant brain trust being completely done with him at that moment. It would then be easy to come to a mutual decision involving the medical staff to hold him out for the last four games.

Gets got an incredible return for a guy that they were done with. ( see Steelers deal for diva wide receiver.) The entire management team would have had to be complicit with the plan to offload a sunk cost. That could have been the play of the year...
