    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.

    IMO doing this is more evidence on why that team is circling the drain.
