was a horrible mistake, they should have brought in another vet on less money (like a Case Keenum type) and invested in bringing in some quality veterans on defense. This is a joke of a roster defensively. I think we might have the worst defense in the history of the NFL. It's a embarrassment. Eli shouldn't be in the NFL at all, let alone taking up 20 million in salary. Epic stupid decision by management.

Just way too unathletic to be in this league anymore.. Is that a word...unathletic?
The Cowboys but up 500 yards of offence...do you blame Eli for the 500 yards of offence the Cowboys put up??? Please let us know what Eli could have done to stop the Cowboys O today???
The problem with this board is too many low IQ MORONS are allowed to post!!! maybe Eric needs to allow vetted posters only...posters with a shred intelligence...DELETE YOUR POST YOU ARE PROVING YOURSELF TO BE AN IDIOT!!!
The unatheltic quote is stupid. but saying we should move on from Eli doesn’t mean we’re placing the entire teams problems on him...if you can’t separate that....you’re making this boards overall IQ lower.
You all are wasting your breath talking about Eli Manning and the Giants. Just let it go.
Could it be the money?
They got 6 kickoffs after the first drive and came away with 3 points. The d made the game unwinnable but the offense was just as useless.
Those numbers are completely meaningingless. This was one of the most embarassing and saddening defeats I can remember, and Eli did NOTHING to alleviate the pain. His passer rating is good, 309 yards aint to shabby, but i would rather have 25-30 other qbs play instead. Couldn't be worse.

And it's Eli's fault...
Only on BBI do you get this kind of take
Only on BBI do we discuss this stuff, and if you do not think the game has passed Eli by then you need to watch the game more closely
LOL, He had over 300 yards Spanky, how did the game pass him bye? Please enlighten us!

He only put up 3 points in between the first drive and the last drive(during a blowout where Dallas's defense was more worried about what they were going to have for dinner than getting a stop) of the game. Did you watch it?
Uselessin the red zone. Useless in long yardage. Useless on 3rd down but he has a 95 passer rating, let's give him a 5 year extension.

Did the OP say that it was Eli's fault? Or just that it was pointless to bring him back on this crappy roster rather than just getting a cheap placeholder QB and fortifying the defense?
I'm pretty sure whatever triggered your defensiveness happened in your own head there, so maybe don't start with the "only on BBI" bullshit?
But we continue to see Eli not really making a difference, so the clock ticks...
I agree with this assessment. We all know Eli is merely a mediocre qb with lifetime mediocre stats....and basically has always been mediocre save a few great moments at the end of the two super bowls when he had a great defense to keep the score low.
I think out of respect he was given this final chance to show us what he has. But clearly his physical skill sets are inferior to DJ, so I think the change will happen sooner than later.

Oh here we go - it looks like MG is going to treat us to his dep jr routine!
Would also love to see some positive flashes from *any* of the new secondary. Thank goodness Jenkins is at least on the team.
Sorry - had to vent - that was such a disappointing game on so many levels.

Great Example of when you got nothing else...LOL
QBR from this weekend:
Eli - 22.4
Brady - 90
Breed - 78.2
Let me anticipate - this stat is skewed anti-Giants/Eli because the media hates the Giants...right?
Darnold looked bad most of the game. So did Josh Allen. Kyler Murray completed just over 50% of his passes lol. Brees threw a bad pick. Rodgers and Trubisky looked bad most of the game. Rodgers threw off his back foot and threw multiple bad passes. Matt Ryan had 3 picks. Jared Goff threw for 186 yards and a pick. Should I go on?
Eli missed Shepard and tried to run for a 1st down instead. That was his worst play.
Quote:
1 bad play on Sunday. Brees had a few. Brady missed an easy 2 yard pass he threw in the dirt. It's unreal how critical we are of Eli.

I believe he is using ESPN's rating. Convenient huh? The offense moved the ball against what is supposed to be a very good defense.

You are referring to the inferior Passer Rating.

QBR and passer rating are not the same stat.

Considering, I watched the game and Eli played average at worst, I'd say QBR is the inferior rating system.
Because Eli wasn't horrible. He was average. At times, above average. At times, below average. But according to QBR, he was dreadful.
Let's compare Eli to Baker Mayfield. Both QBs on teams that got blown out. Eli had the fumble and was sacked once. Mayfield threw three picks and was sacked six times. QBR said Mayfield had the better game.
Brees and Brady made more than enough big plays to make up for those.
Darnold looked bad most of the game. So did Josh Allen. Kyler Murray completed just over 50% of his passes lol. Brees threw a bad pick. Rodgers and Trubisky looked bad most of the game.

Have those QBs missed playoffs in bulk of a decade?
