Is It Time To Bench Eli Manning?

bigboydan · 09-17-06, 03:39 PM

He's thrown for 310 yards and 2 TD's so far today, and the Gaints are currently in OT. How can you bench a guy that puts up those types of numbers Coach.

jjgold · 09-17-06, 04:11 PM

He threw up some prays and got lucky, we will give him credit though for the win but I still do not like this guy in the pressure.

It's just a damn shame when things like that happen to the Eagles.

If you listened to Suck and Fakeman call the game then you thought the Eagles were greatest assemblage of talent ever to step on the gridiron.

Yes, and I'm so sick of hearing them telling me Jim Johnson is this great defensive coordinator. Yes, they had 8 sacks, but how do you let the Giants drive into FG position from their own 20 with no timeouts and 55 seconds left?

Plus, on the series before, the CB gets burned on a 25-yard TD pass. How do they let the WRs get by them in that spot.

The Eagles defense has been overrated for years. They never come up big in a big spot. Still, this loss falls on Andy Reed.

loss falls under no time management and an idiot play by a defender giving a 15 yard penalty right before they were kicking the FG for the tie

you've got to let Eli Manning play through these times (and it doesn't sound like he's doing too bad in the first place)...it will eventually pay dividends...

In this particular game, the real reason the Eagles lost was because Jevon Kearse got injured. They pressured Eli mercilessly until the very last play Kearse was in the game (he injured his knee when he and another Eagle sacked Eli simultaneously). From that point on, the Giants were able to score every time they had they football.

yeah, just read that the freak is out for the year...

dude kearse was hurt in ot, kind of sad too since he would not have got hurt if they could have just held the lead, lost a lot last weekend, this game along with Oklahoma, and CLemson running the ball in instead of kicking an 18 yarder all were horrible losses

Funny how big brother paved the way for Eli. He's grown up fast.

This thread better have been created months ago and not today?? Why are people so stupid?? I'm officially leaving these forums for goofd because some people have absolutely no knowledge of sports whatsoever. Dude hasn't thrown a pick in like what.... 5 games??? came within 3 points of beating the Pats, and just led his team to the Superbowl and we're talking about putting 2nd stringer Jared Lorenzen in???

wow im walking away from these forums before i get brainwashed by morons... You people have no knowledge of football.

and to all u who say "eli will NEVER Be peyton".... go choke on some rocks.. u don't know $hit about football if u honestly believe that

kdmfox · 01-21-08, 05:52 AM

Eli certainly has been "lucky" the last 5 games ... If there ever was a football player that looks like he doesn't want to be there, it's him ... I'm getting tired of looking at his sour puss.

Feel free at any point to actually read the dates on the posts!

JJ is a great motivator. When Eli read this thread back in September he vowed to proved JJ wrong!

I find it really amusing that someone claiming that everyone here is stupid can't read the date in the top left corner of each post. Ahhhhhh....irony.

Most over hyped QB ever

Time for the bench, he is not even close to his brother and the giants have great material.

this is a crazy comment.....he has totally redeemed himself from last year.......he sucked balls last year....

That I do...but it's slightly south of my head.

TexansFan · 01-22-08, 10:47 PM

Is it too late to say no? I think the absence of Shockey has helped Eli. Without Shockey's constant whining about being open he looks more comfortable.

LOL..I thought the same thing...I opened it thinking WTF and then read the date at the top. Funny little rant he had as well.
