Now. Eli has been benched.
It is much earlier then I expected but it was the right move. As much as I like Eli and hate to see his career end it is time. We can’t keep looking like this every Sunday. It’s been too many years in a row starting out like this

The defense is a mess though....

It's pretty clear that this defense is incredibly inept so no matter what Eli does they're going to lose. Might as well start getting the kid some experience.

I know the defense is bad. But the pass two weeks they come out first drive score. Then the rest of the game Eli throws those errant throws and gives that “Eli” look he gives that we all know

Good point... what could a 2 time Super Bowl winning QB and consummate professional like Eli possibly teach to a young QB?

:brick:

How to win 50% of his games?
How to throw interceptions?

Rodgers had Brett Favre to learn from

Being an understudy means learning what to do and what not to do.

Brett Favre threw more interceptions than anyone in NFL history - 59 more than the 2nd place guy (Blanda - who played for 26 years). Aaron Rodgers has the greatest TD:INT ratio in NFL history - 4.26. The second place guy is Russell Wilson at 3.19.

Eh.

I'm fine with moving on from Eli... it's past time on that front

What I worry about is that the Giants are currently so bad at WR that it represents a situation in which it would be very, very, very hard for any young QB to succeed.

Hopefully Sterling Shepard can come back healthy and after a couple more games, Golden Tate will be back... so at least there is some hope in the near future.

Gonna be hard if either or both of those are out of the line-up, though.
