Mcadoo throwing in the towel (i know, season's been lost for a while now), but Geno? Really? as if there is no enough evidence on him. Might as well would've replaced him with Mark Sanchise

It's 2017 and Eli sucks, he hit a wall much younger but just as fast as his brother

Would you feel the same if Brady struggles next year and the patriots humiliate him like this. With everything he has done for that organization

Wasn't there a thread regarding his current starting streak. I swear in that thread I predicted this would happen within two seasons. He's done.

I'm not surprised at Eli's benching, they're 2-9 and their offense sucks, but I am surprised it's for Geno Smith.

Geno is not the answer going forward, I would expect they'd bench him in favor of some young prospect.

Eli's career record is nothing special, 110-100, and the Giants have been below 500 in 4 out of the last 5 seasons. Why is he something they can't do without?

Career passing rating a pedestrian 83.8

They'll ship him off for a 5th or 6th round pick in the offseason. I guess they must figure lets see if Geno can be a reasonable backup for next season until their draft pick is ready, if it isn't Davis Webb. I'd give it 2 or 3 weeks and then they'll finish it out with Webb to see how he looks.

McAdoo was ( and guess still is ) on the Hot seat, so he throws Eli under the bus.
Does he also blame Eli for all the dropped passes too ??

From Geno ....

A second-round pick in 2013, Smith signed with the Giants as a free agent in the offseason after being released by the Jets. He played in only two games in 2016 with his season ending with a major knee injury.


Smith told Manning that he supports him and has his respect.


"This guy has done a tremendous job in this league," Smith said. "He has done a bunch of things for this organization and none of that can ever be taken away or forgotten. This is a business and it's tough. My number is up so it is my time to go out there and do what I am supposed to do and make sure I get the job done."
