The word is Eli was told he could start but Smith and Webb would play most of the game. Eli told them that if this is what they wanted he didn't need to start and that this kind of start would "Tarnish" his streak.

I understand wanting to see Webb but why play Smith?

if this is true, I commend him for that.
I remember Favre hobbling out to take the 1st snap of a game just so he could continue his streak, even though he was too hurt to play.

Actually I would be afraid of looking at Davis now under Mcadoo's offense.....Kid could get killed......

Now if it was a Jim Bob Cooter offense I would be all for it!

He did that on the Jets as well with his shoulder. They were 8 - 5 and looked playoff bound and he wouldn't admit he couldn't throw.

It appears to be true, he is being directly quoted and the quote matches the teams statement. Plus, he's just that kind of guy.

No, they just suck and might as well see the other 2 guys. Granted they have so many injuries and no receivers so I'm not sure what the other 2 will be able to do. The other 2 are more mobile and the line sucks so perhaps this saves him some wear and tear and he can come back fresher next year

My fear is that if they are allowing Mcadoo to make this decision, than maybe he has a chance to save his job

I could see him going to ownership 'let me prove what I could do with a mobile QB'

I think they're going to pick a QB in the draft so you might as well see what you have. It's a tough gig though, no line, all the receivers are hurt, no running game.....If they do win a few down the stretch maybe Mcadoo would earn a chance to stay.

Is that guy who broke Geno's jaw in training camp still in the league?
