But I'm leaning toward putting in Jones. This team isn't going anywhere, might as well let Jones start climbing the learning curve. He could be worse than Eli's been, but at this point, so what?
Giants up 7-0... Second position, Eli misses an open Engram and they have to punt. If the Giants score on that posession it's a different game.
Obviously the D is the bigger problem. But the Giants are going nowhere this year and Eli isn't helping.
Time for Jones!
On 3rd down of that drive there were no defenders in front of Eli. If Jones was in the game he could have easily ran for a 1st down. It's plays like this that the offense is lacking.

Watch that play. If the ball is six inches lower it is batted at the line. Besides saying that one incompletion in the second quarter decided a game is insane. TD. TD. TD decided the game.
Eli had nearly identical stats to Tom Brady’s last year, and for Brady’s team, that same production was good enough to win a Super Bowl. The difference? The defense sucked. And it still sucks.
However, now, I say play DJ. We need 28 points a game, minimum with this defense. DJ gives us a more mobile option to extend plays, which you need when you have a mediocre receiving corps. And we’re not going anywhere anyway, so let his tutelage begin.
Giant Need to Access End of 1st Quarter at a minimum Â
If they are eliminated from Playoff contention....0-4 (a real possibility at this point)...then you bench Eli...Keep in mind that the most recent Superbowl's...Giants looked like dog shit...and started 0-2 in both seasons...the possibility of making a run is real slim with this roster...but the Giants need to DEFINITELY be out of playoff contention first before they pass the torch to Eli...Its not about benching Eli...its about if they rebuilding and going 6-10...they might as well play Jones..
Its not about Eli...its whether this roster is good enough to make the playoff...Giants need to give it at least a quarter before they move to jones...

You being an Eliforlife isnt cute. Move on bro. Stop making Giants fans getting their ass whoop. Time to let me win us games. Unless Giants are intentionally starting Eli so we pick too 3 and draft Jerry Jeudy. Im down with that. 14 more games of me laughing at Grandpa Eli

I never said it was the play that DECIDED the game. I said that it was the turning point of the game, as in the game went another direction at that point.

Exactly, all Eli's plays are just a downhill spiral of more and more bad luck. If I dont start at least by week 4, Engram, pur only receiver left, is going to get a concision from trying to make an amazing jump catch with a terrible throw. If you watch all engrams drops, it was all catchable but had secondary and LBs in perfect position to injure him but he letting the ball go in order to not get completely smashed is only reason hes not hurt
Eli keeps putting them
On the field though
