Eli Manning isn't being benched period. He's the guy without a doubt.

The Giants don't win up front anymore. And when they don't win there, they aren't good enough to win anywhere else

by Number-25 Fri 11 Oct 2013, 11:52 am

This is the problem that the Giants have... Eli is a 2 ring QB and in today's NFL QBs get too much credit for Superbowl wins which means they're tied to him for far longer than they would be a QB that had never won a Superbowl. It's not right but it's the way the NFL is nowadays.

What we're seeing from Eli now is the player he has always been - an unreliable interception machine. The only difference between him and Rex Grossman is the Superbowl wins which had as much to do with great O-Line play and defense as it did Eli. Rex himself almost won a Superbowl riding on the coat tails of an awesome defense. Superbowls do not a QB make.... or at least they shouldn't.

by BamBam Fri 11 Oct 2013, 12:30 pm

Yup exactly.

Would the Giants have won in 2007 without Tuck and co making Brady's life miserable, they were ferocious that day

by GSC Fri 11 Oct 2013, 1:11 pm

Eli and JPP were the only 2 good Giants players in 2011

by CFCNick Fri 11 Oct 2013, 2:58 pm

And a certain, franchise record busting, Victor Cruz.

by BamBam Fri 11 Oct 2013, 4:04 pm

Reports that Adrian Peterson's 2 year old son has been attacked by his mother's boyfriend and is in critical condition.

What the actual f*ck. I hope they put him in a room with AP for 10 mins, scumbag

by CFCNick Fri 11 Oct 2013, 4:08 pm

That's awful. Maybe AP can have Jared Allen back him up in those 10 minutes.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 11 Oct 2013, 5:03 pm

Hope that scumbag is locked up for a long time.

Hopefully the kid and AP pull through

by Number-25 Fri 11 Oct 2013, 5:47 pm

".... aggravated battery of an infant"

Can't possibly be a more cowardly crime than that. Dreadful. Can't imagine what you'd want to do to the guy that did that to your kid.

by GSC Fri 11 Oct 2013, 6:54 pm

Johnthan Banks has had a hell of a welcome to the NFL. 0-4, coach ran the QB out of town and now he has MRSA

by GSC Fri 11 Oct 2013, 7:35 pm

Eagles and Bucs might not play due to the MRSA contamination.

Dunno if it'd go down as a tie or a win for us

by **Pr4wn** Fri 11 Oct 2013, 8:08 pm

I think you're actually Walter Cherepinsky.

by GSC Fri 11 Oct 2013, 8:14 pm

I actually find that offensive.

by **Pr4wn** Fri 11 Oct 2013, 8:17 pm

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Fri 11 Oct 2013, 10:22 pm

Albert Breer ‏@AlbertBreer
RT @chipscoggins Adrian Peterson's son has died according to police.

Awful awful awful. Prayers with AP and his family

by Bull Fri 11 Oct 2013, 10:34 pm

Thoughts with him and his family. horrible news. Sad

by Guest Fri 11 Oct 2013, 10:34 pm

Absolutely awful news at any time but the circumstances make it all the worse

by BamBam Fri 11 Oct 2013, 11:00 pm

So so sad. I think of my 2 year old nephew and its just too much, deepest condolences to AP and his family

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sat 12 Oct 2013, 10:07 pm

AP's said he'll play tomorrow, football has helped him get through tough times before.

The reception he'll get at The Metrodome tomorrow should be off the charts

by GSC Sat 12 Oct 2013, 10:15 pm

Apparently he only met the kid for the first time yesterday or something. Tragic but its not exactly Favres dad

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sat 12 Oct 2013, 10:24 pm

Yeah apparantly so, but still

On another note I really fancy Oakland to beat Kansas this week. I've been sucked in by the "Oakland haven't lost at Arrowhead since 2006" stat, completely ignoring all logic which says a Chiefs win

by GSC Sat 12 Oct 2013, 10:28 pm

KCs good enough to put away bad to mediocre teams. Oakland falls into that category.

by CFCNick Sun 13 Oct 2013, 9:38 am

Eagles-Bucs WILL go ahead as planned according to various sources. NFLPA apparently asking TB players not to play.

by **Pr4wn** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 10:16 am

Funny how people are labelling the Buccaneers as incompetent without really knowing what MRSA is or how to contain it. It's not as simple as spraying disinfectant and taking antibiotics as anyone who has had it will tell you.

by crazy_dave23 Sun 13 Oct 2013, 6:08 pm

I'm sure GBvBAL should be blacked out on gamepass as it is on sky yet i'm watching... how so?

by GSC Sun 13 Oct 2013, 6:08 pm

Nick Foles with another rushing TD against the Bucs

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 6:15 pm

Thad Lewis scored a TD. Who even is he

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 6:25 pm

Joseph Fauria currently winning the TD celebration award

by crazy_dave23 Sun 13 Oct 2013, 7:37 pm

James Jones and Randall Cobb hurt...
Jared Boykin can't run a route...

Wanted: One Green Bay Wide Receiver

There are only 2 of them left including Boykin!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 7:49 pm

We've got a code red in Houston, and it's not Matt Schaub

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 7:57 pm

Not really sure what's more ugly

Ravens offence, Vikings in general, or that pick Geno just threw

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 7:59 pm

Schaub goes down injured. Houston fans cheer. REAL REAL CLASSY HOUSTON

by Take it to the house Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:01 pm

Defense getting shredded, offense doing nothing, really really bad game by the Vikings so far!

by GSC Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:02 pm

Foles has a rushing TD, Jackson beat Revis for a TD and now Cooper has a long TD. Bizarro world.

by GSC Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:03 pm

Won't be long before Freeman gets his chance at this rate

by crazy_dave23 Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:03 pm

Yates is just a much worse version of Matt Schaub.

LOL PICK SIX

by GSC Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:07 pm

One of those days for Houston.

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:11 pm

They've completely ruined my accy

by GSC Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:20 pm

I'd be surprised if there was a worse 3rd down D than the Eagles

by Breadvan Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:23 pm

Great TD by the packers...

Oh how I love the play action bootleg followed by a massive heave downfield by Rodgers... its always to Nelson and he is almost always open!

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:24 pm

Austin Collie to make his Pats debut today, Gronk inactive as is Tommy Kelly. No idea who our DT's are.

by Take it to the house Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:36 pm

Cassel is so inconsistent! Good throw then bad throw, then good then bad.....

by **Good Golly I'm Olly** Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:37 pm

Gotta love the way the Bucs are just misusing Darrelle Revis this year

by Take it to the house Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:44 pm

Jennings with an unreal one-handed catch from behind him, possibly saving another INT. So much offensive talent being wasted mad

by Guest Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:50 pm

Prior has completely choked in this game

by Breadvan Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:51 pm

Pryor having fun in KC lol..

by crazy_dave23 Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:51 pm

3rd and 48 in KC...

by GSC Sun 13 Oct 2013, 8:54 pm

Chip goes for it on 4th and 1 from the TB 17 up a TD. Gets offsides
