Wow, was McAdoo doo doo...
Did he always grease his hair like that?? Was he trying to look "New York Sleaze"?? Came across as a complete piece of shit.
According to some reports McAdoo offered to have Eli start, but have Geno take over in the second half. Eli said, in effect, if you want to play Geno, start him.Quote:

Even if you believe in Geno, you don't think you are going to win with him after the half.
That HAD to be Jerry Reese.
Coordinators (offensive and defensive) most often don't translate to successful Head Coaches. Belichek is the exception that proves the rule.Quote:

I don't why McAdoo wasn't successful, he learned from the master.
The guy I wanted to be in high school.Quote:

Eli's streak ended for what...just this ... stupidity.

How many Coaches on Mike McCarthy's Coaching Staff are a lot like Ben McAdoo?

Comment woodbuck27:
This will go down as one of the stupidest moves by any NFL Head Coach and GM.
To take Eli out and steal that Streak away from an Icon with two Super Bowl wins...idiotic.
That move just sucks and the whole NFL and NFL Fans will not forget this ugly move by the guys who deserved the 'hatchet job' for unreal stupidity. Former NY Giants HC Ben McAdoo and his GM Jerry Reese...GONE ..... FIRED !
Horray ! :whaa:
He gave Eli the option to start and play the first half and Eli said no. Got anything else?Quote:

NEW YORK GIANTS
Benching of Eli Manning Ends an Era for the Giants in the Ugliest Way Possible
MIKE TANIER ... NOVEMBER 28, 2017
" ...Manning was unceremoniously benched Tuesday afternoon after 14 seasons and 210 consecutive starts. The two-time Super Bowl MVP will be replaced by former tabloid back-page chew toy Geno Smith, a quarterback so inept that he deserved about half of the criticism he received during his Jets tenure.
The Giants have a more likely quarterback of the future on the roster in rookie Davis Webb, but Ben McAdoo, a lame duck whose New Year's Day plans involve updating his LinkedIn page, is now the coaching equivalent of a movie character climbing into the cockpit of a crashing spaceship and randomly mashing buttons. ..."
Please click on the LINK for the rest.
The Mara's just didn't want this decision on them. You don't think that the McAdoo and Reese let the Maras know that they were going to bench Eli? This fiasco is on the Maras as well.
Gotta wonder if they played this on purpose. Go ahead and start Geno you two, it will not affect our hiring decisions one way or another.Quote:

It came as a result of New York GIANT and NFL Fans shocked response to incredible stupidity on behalf of Former (now) HC Ben McAdoo and GM Jerry Reese. Eli Manning did NOT deserve to be benched given all the circumstances. The New York GIANTS Season was ' Up In Flames '.
Benching Eli Manning for Geno Smith !! hahahah. :whaa:
To bench Eli Manning on Tuesday of last NFL Week 13... '13' ...'13' ...'13' ... was simply and sadly for their futures and the NFL; not at all bright.
It was 'a certain POISON PILL' move.
It will go down in NFL history as one of the (frankly) stupidest moves all time.
It will be interesting to see if Jerry Reese and Ben McAdoo can really ever recover from Week 13 of the 2017 Season NFL Schedule. I'm an Irish Canadian and therefore rather superstitious. :idea:
