So...Eli will be what...maybe 3rd string? At best? Yes...Freeman, Flynn, then Eli/Nassib/Painter. That's a bada** group of passers you've got going on there.

Hey, no doubt from me. Anytime your veteran starting QB has a season almost on par statistically with Curtis Painter's pitiful season in Indianapolis, it's time to start thinking seriously about a change. If I'm the Giants' FO, I'm on the phone with the Redskins right now, offering them my 1st, 2nd, and 3rd round draft picks for the services of Kirk Cousins. If that doesn't work and I actually can't find any another upgrade over Eli, I either retire or shoot myself. Certainly wouldn't want to be associated with a guy who threw 27 INTs in one season. 27! I mean, heck! How do you throw to the guys in the wrong color jersey 27 times in a single season?

Just as a side note, some of the above is satire. Some, not so much...

You would have to know something about football to understand about his 27 ints but he is in good company Brett Favre had a bad year(2005) once or twice(99+98) but what is really interesting is 27 ints and 0-6 start and take just two of those ints away and the Giants win the division .

Awwww...are you resorting to lame little jabs now? I'm no expert on football, for sure, but I like to think I know a little about it.

If Eli's claim to fame is throwing a ton of picks, then so be it. If I were a Giants fan, I would point to the two SB wins, but the ghastly amount of picks he throws is certainly more noteworthy.

I agree with everything you said here ,Eli's 2 super bowls

Eli's 2 Super Bowl MVP

Pro bowl etc. See when I bring those up people get mad so I don't but since you wanted to throw out the int's I 'll admit those also We agree on everything about Eli and that you know little about football. We're good.
