What I don't understand is how 38 year old Eli Manning remains teflon in that organization throughout all this.

Compare that to how our fanbase is treating 29 year old Cam Newton.

Even Eli has said that he full expects the Giants to draft a QB in the 1st round. Gettleman is trying to be sly but no one is buying it. Hell, Igo told us that Shaq and Butler were gonna be our picks.

All those years of Eli declining, and this is the draft they choose to search for a franchise QB?

Oof.

Well to be fair while Eli has regressed he does have two super bowl wins.

 

That buys lots of patience. I didn't give the hurricanes grief about missing the playoffs for 10 years because they at least have a cup.

Rings can make a difference no doubt. But the last time the Giants made any kind of deep playoff push was what, 7 years ago?

You think this fanbase would sit by if we were in that scenario while Cam was the QB, and we had just jettisoned one of the most productive wide receivers in the NFL in his prime while our QB remains one of the highest paid in the league?

Eli Manning has been protected by his last name more than anything let's just be honest. That began from the word go before he was even drafted when he made it clear to the Chargers not to draft him. You think Cam, who was absolutely skewered for his innocuous icon and entertainer comments, would get the same pass if he had made demands like that on draft day?

Whew!  I hesitated to click because I was worried that this might be a porno from Toomer's  private collection.

Boy you really do turn into complete douche-bag when someone proves you completely ignorant on a subject. Maybe you should have stayed in that thread and made your case instead of taking shots in random threads because your pride is hurt. 

 And considering you were claiming Gettleman left an “escape with zero dead money” and I was defending what Hurney did, what exactly was your point here? Or explain your original BS statement? Or just continue taking shots and I’ll stand by what you said(and didn’t say).

      First OTA's Monday and Tuesday

      By frankw · Posted

      I mean you're seemingly egging on someone that's about to get the first OTA thread of the year sent to the tinderbox because he's so personally upset someone said something about Bryce Young he doesn't like. At the end of the day it's on Bryce to quiet the doubts. He's got 38 million reasons to do so. I'm glad we are in general agreement about the outlook for the upcoming season. As far as my position on Bryce. I was pretty plain about my preference being CJ Stroud predraft. There were several posters here at that time who made it their mission to attack and spam poo emojis on anything perceived to be critical of Bryce Young. I was on board and in support once he was the pick. I said all along I was going to give him the season to show performance worthy of where he was selected. To say the absolute least that did not happen unfortunately. I think you are misrepresenting and assigning your own interpretation to the "optimism" about Bryce Young that you claim I take exception to. Optimism is one thing. Fantasy is another. And fantasy is what some of the talk has amounted to. In this very thread the first day of OTA he's been compared to Christian McCaffrey for whatever reason. That's not optimism that's homerism and again we've been doing this for different QB's the last several years. What's the definition of insanity? At some point you just need to see real quantifiable results first. We're all waiting. Hopefully it happens.

      Nah the much higher bust percentage for all players suits your narrative too a tee

      Cmon dude... you've been a moderator for years... You really don't remember the discourse around here in 2017??  CMC was hated by many, many people.  Especially after the season Kamara had.   Anyone who doesn't seem massive parallels between that CMC/Kamara debate vs. the BY/CJS debate is lying or misremembering IMHO. And to your 2nd point, Bryce doesn't deserve another season?  So, the book wasn't written on CMC after 1 season, but it is on Bryce? My avatar is of Cam and will always be.  No one will ever take his place for me, but it's insane the number of people activity rooting against this team (and then talking trash to those of us supporting them). Man, I'll take my next month hiatus from this place, but I'm simply astonished at the revisionist history. I miss being able to have even remotely objective discussions on this board.  People getting dragged by trolls every single time they try to post anything is exhausting... BTW @CRA, appreciate the warning.  I'll see myself out, just like SCP and all the other posters worth a crap who got tired of this cesspool always favoring the poo-slingers... This board allows clowns to troll all day long anyone trying to have reasonable discourse with zero repercussion, but if you push back against this depressing and inane s-show and all the nonsense takes, then it's no good...
