Hey @fordman84 , maybe time to combine all these threads. I do agree with you on the Maras and their GM. These NY/ NJ teams are a joke.
do you recall my debates with dirt about eli/plunkett?So a lock for the Hall
They made the move thi morning.
Giants name Daniel Jones new starting quarterback for Week 3; could the Giants trade Eli Manning now?
"Overrated"?Good move, Eli is the most overrated active Quarterback. Maybe they could trade him for a used douche if they are really clever.
For the right price there will always be a taker for someone who has won before or has something like a draft position going for them.LOL
Is there seriously a market for Eli?
I'm dubious. He hasn't looked remotely capable in 2 years.
only QB with a negative WAR before the season started."Overrated"?
The overwhelming majority of people do not "overrate" Eli Manning. If anything, it's the opposite... he has been the butt of jokes for years.
I was speaking over his whole career, recently, he's only been extremely overrated."Overrated"?

By whom?
Recently, he has been a league-wide joke... and regarded as such by anyone who isn't a Giants homer.
To a certain extent, Eli is a victim of his remarkable ability to cleat up every Sunday.I don't have too high or too low of an opinion of Eli's abilities. I do judge him harshly for how he conducted himself prior to the draft, I thought his behavior was spoiled/entitled. And he got what he wanted in the end.
But over his career in NY, he has behaved himself and seems like a genuinely nice guy, if not a little dull and un-inspiring. It sucks that this is the way any veteran QB has to go out, but he's not the first nor the last. Be grateful that you played more than a decade in a league where the average career is 3 years

i just texted him this lol
I disagree, I hope Dave Gettleman is the GM for life.That they need a new GM who doesn't suck at talent evaluation.
Also, all of the Mara's are assholes that deserve to never win another game.
im with ya on this. let him sit a few more weeks to get acclimated. but then again, what do they have to lose? more games? pats threw bledsoe out there at 21 to learn the hard way. he ended up ok.
I've never believed the "ruin QB" idea by some. If a guy cannot handle poor performances/struggles he wasn't going to be very good in the first place.im with ya on this. let him sit a few more weeks to get acclimated. but then again, what do they have to lose? more games? pats threw bledsoe out there at 21 to learn the hard way. he ended up ok.
