Eli Manning has always been exactly the opposite of Aaron Rodgers. Rodgers is so great he MAKES the team what it is. The Giants have generally been good enough in other areas to win in spite of Eli Manning. Some years they haven't been.

TANKING!
Bud Adams told me the franchise he admired the most was the Kansas City Chiefs. Then he asked for more hookers and blow.
Ridiculously poor treatment. If you're not going to start him and he's not in your plans, you cut him. I am shocked that the Mara's will let this happen to Eli. You don't bench someone that won you 2 superbowls and someone who has been a 13 year starter.

There was a time when Eli was one of the best clutch QB's in the NFL. Remember 2011? Nothing lasts forever.
One time Lombardi was disgusted with the team in practice and told them they were going to have to start with the basics. He held up a ball and said: "This is a football." McGee immediately called out, "Stop, coach, you're going too fast," and that gave everyone a laugh.

Did you list the losses first because that's what's now more important to them?
I agree though, they didn't need to do this. Benching the player who's been the starter at QB for more than a decade, winning two SBs along the way is bush league.
If you think it's time to move on, fine, but let him play out the season this train wreck of a season then cut ties. Eli is showing more class than ownership by not going out there just to maintain the streak.

Imagine for a moment a world without hypothetical situations...
I could see it if they were benching Eli to give some playing time to their QB of the future. But bench him for Geno Smith? That's an undeserved insult.

That's a great point. The Mora's have always operated with a hands off philosophy. If it wasn't for a couple of amazing plays against the Pats in the Superbowl wins, the GM (Reese?) would have been long gone. Neither Coach nor QB will be with the Giants next year. GM probably gone also.
Kind of crazy to see a streak end like this. Wow.
