always sad to see things come to an end.
Eli was as tough as they come but at a certain point it's time to move on...

... I lik him too Bens. He looked very good last season but looked tentative in the playoff game against the Eagles. H continued that trend in training camp struggling against the Bears defense and it was written off as understandable against such a good D. But now 2 games in a row he looks like he is playing to not make mistakes. Slow to throw to open receivers and staring down his first read. That is very disconcerting but remembering he only played 13 games in college and basically one season in the NFL under Nagy, I still have hope he can get back to last seasons form and start playing with confidence again. I would add the first game play calling was horrendous with the Packers only having a 3 and 7 point lead, Nagy completely abandoned the run so no play action and the Packers D had a free run at Trubisky all game long. That can shake any young QB up. 

... He sounds very optimistic and much more upbeat after the win with his clutch scramble/throw at the end of the game to set up the FG, so hopefully that is the jump start he needed. 


It’s amazing what some positive encouragement can do for someone’s morale!

Good luck this season.

That's fine. 

How were Cutler's playoff and super bowl stats. 

 

I never said Eli is the best QB, but he was clutch in two of the most memorable playoff runs ever.

Eli wasn’t the best ever but he did a good job and nobody can take away his 2?Super Bowl wins.

Are you a Giants fan? I am as well - in fact when I was a kid the Giants trained near my house. I actually caddied for Spider Lockhart once!

 

It is Eli’s time beyond a doubt - the last time they benched him was just wrong - the O’line was horrific - the issues were not his fault.

 

This time it’s not as much him as it’s that time to move on. I agree that he is a tough hombre - so was Phil Simms BTW - but his was a different era.

 

They are similar in that they aren’t all time great QBs but are all time great winners - they fit NY. And those Super Bowls were amazing.

 

I’m grateful for what Eli did - I’m also excited for Jones to get on the field and then to get Golden Tate playing as well in two weeks.

Yup. All my life. Giants drafted Eli when I was a sophomore in college so he has really been the guy for most of my adult Fandom..

It's been hard to watch over the last few years with the terrible drafting by Reese and the disaster that was McAdoo. Eli handled every bump in the road with class and dignity and is one of those rare athletes that truly is a great role model.

Eli also handled the constant comparison (and criticism) with his brother extremely well.
Good kid.

I agree that it was time for Jones to take over (although I thought they’d wait until game 5 and Tate’s return). I also agree that Eli has handled everything that’s come his way with class and dignity. Long forgotten is the Burris night club incident. That was the best team they had during Eli’s era and that stupidity cost them a shot at a 3rd Super Bowl.

Incredible win yesterday - now we hold our breath on Barcley - get through the season and draft defense, defense, defense

... Injuries are a huge factor in the NFL, especially what kind of back ups the team has. That said, I am with you and really hate injures to great players. Everyone loses.

Yes but this is all trivial compared to the fact that we have a local high school player on life support today - just waiting to have transplant teams available to harvest organs before they take him off.

He collapsed at his game Friday night in what is being described as a non-football related brain injury.  However mom's in the area will read football player died while playing football and it will be another nail in the coffin for a sport that has not been able to get ahead of its safety issues.  I honestly think the Alabama/Clemson college domination is a sign of the end times for football - not enough good players to go around because parents are refusing to let their children play. 

The talent pool is shrinking quickly.  And while this story has nothing to do with football per se, it's tragic.  You wish that everyone could have an MRI before High School - that would have detected this issue although I don't know exactly what could have been done about it.
