    When does Eli play like the No.1 QB? Is the new offense
    too difficult for him? Here's hoping he's mastered the O.
    I'm still not convinced he will do well this year. :drumroll:
    :banghead: :blue:

    Eli does not look right. Nassib is out performing him.
    Anybody concerned? TC does not look pleased with Eli.

    Nassib and rookie RB Andre Williams are definite on Giant roster.
    WR Corey Washington solidified his roster spot tonight.

    Eli is a liability. First team offense is woeful.

    Eli isn't a liability. His offensive line sucks again. Perhaps that is because when in the third round, there was a power guard available, they reached for another project in Bromely who they could have gotten in the 5th round.

    The liability is Reese. Guy is a moron. Dumb luck he won 2 SuperBowls.

    OK. Let's put it this way. First team O & D as it stands.........are not good.
    Granted, Reese's selections are very questionable. BUT, he does
    not play O or D.
    So, what is on the field.....is hard to watch.
    Pre season games mean squat. Nassib plays against
    opponents' 3rd & 4th team units. His performances
    are confidence builders....nothing more.

    As for Eli, he's got big problems......his atrocious O-line
    and WRs who are having a tough time learning the new offense.

    It is going to be a long football season in Giant land.

    Told dumbass Giants fans last year this was a 2 year fix. It might be 3 because Reese never trades down in drafts to get extra picks. Never trades guys like Nicks who he knows he won't sign for a pick. Continually reaches in the draft.

    I said it last year. Giants needed at least 3 second round picks and 2 thirds. I'll say it again. They need that the next draft. I suspect the Giants will not go more than 5-11 this season. If there will be a franchise QB there, they should trade Eli and start over. If not, they should move down at least twice to pick 25 or later in the first round, get 3 second's and possibly a couple of third and fourths. Maybe even pick up a first the next year from a team that wants to move way up in the draft.

    With a 25 or later first round pick, three 2nds go.

    1. G
    2. TE
    2. DE
    2. T
    3. G
    3. TE

    That is what I would do. The guards on this team suck on an unbelievable level. I would cut every TE on this team next year. The team needs another, fast, athletic DE to add to the mix.

    That's been my same contention. Reese is too f'n conservative when it
    comes to the draft. Cheap is cheap. I always get the feeling he's looking
    to snare unknowns who play like unknowns. Don't like his approach
    in building a winner. Luck takes ya just so far. These Giants need
    more than luck. BTW, I think 5-11 is optimistically conservative.*

    * I see, that's your high end for wins.

    It's mind boggling how dumb Reese is with acquiring extra picks. Especially since the dumbass constantly reaches for players when he could trade down multiple times to get them and pick up many extra, late round picks.
