There was an article in the NY Times today with the headline "Eli Knows Better"

No...he doesn't.

They were referring to the play that resulted in the pass interference and moved the Giants back out of field goal range. They couldn't understand why he would ever throw that ball in that situation. Then there was his inexplicable throw in the end zone on the previous drive resulting in an INT --

What was he thinking?

Since when is this news. The Super Bowl throw that should've been intercepted, Newman's pick six that he dropped last year and three of Eli's throws in the NFC Championship game against the 49ers where DB's were knocking each other off the ball they were so poorly thrown.

I'm waiting for Eliland to come in and defend what he did last night. The only
difference between Eli last night and Eli in all those other situations is that last night the endzone INT wasn't dropped.

I think he's a great QB, I do, but for a two time Super Bowl winner, he has gotten away with the worst, most ill timed decisions in crucial situations I have ever seen.

Last night he didn't -- and don't tell me he knows better.

Good to see him get raked over the coals, it was a bad decision on his part and threw a pass he shouldn't have. Thing is every QB will do it, I know for the living Room QB you should never throw that pass but it is going to happen. Just like a pitcher throwing a meaty fastball is going to be taken out of the park a QB will make mistakes. They will never live up to the perfect world that fans put them in.
 
If the giants didnt get that stupid last penalty they still would have won. So not elis fault but that play was bad.
