Giants name Geno Smith their starting QB **merged**

[Avery]

And he can get killed behind that OL too. Works for me. Developing QBs is not easy.

Yeah, but you’d have an easier time developing a pizza as your QB than Geno. They will address OL in later rounds.

And fail. For the last decade the NFL has been overdrafting OL year in and year out. This is also a weak class. OL talent becomes more scarce every year.

My point is that any young QB is going ot have no pass protection of a running game.

Definitely not an Eli or Giants fan, but that’s sad to see.

Last thing the Giants want is a victory. It would kill their draft position. Worst case scenario for the Giants would be to win a couple games with Geno. I'm guessing the Giants would pull Geno for Webb pretty quickly if Geno has them close.

Love it.

 

[DCBoysfan]

Wow! Despite Eli not playing well, I'm still surprised.

Me too, I often wonder is this coaching staff qualified to make this kind of descison.

 

[Ranching]

That's kinda sad. Wouldn't wanna see Eli go out like that. Hopefully he's given a chance with another QB hungry team to finish his career. He's better than anything Jacksonville currently has.

Trade him to the browns!

Hearing the Gnats fans having a meltdown over this is music to my ears. Christmas came early

 

[JohnnyTheFox]

Bets on who has a better game? Dak or Geno?

60/40

 

[Coy]

Hats off to Eli, great guy and a great competitor.
Even though I hate the Giants, I never hated Eli.

Saying that... Romo>>>>Eli

 

[BotchedLobotomy]

Does this mean they will Un flex the the Un flex from 1 back to 3:30? I mean, Geno Smith playing the Cowboys has to be a ratings bonanza.

 

[Shunpike]

Anyway, Shunny my good friend, Eli was near the end hasn't played very well in some time. This had to happen sooner or later.

Haley. I miss Wellington Mara. That's all I will say. This was a non-classy move by John Mara and the Giants. Eli is the bigger man. I am sad and I am mad.

 

[rags747]

WOW...Giants are in the mode of seeing what they have in Gino and the rookie Webb before having to go all in on the upcoming draft, smart move.

 

[noshame]

Coach will be fired after this loss LOL

 

[lwehlers]

the giants are totally stupid. there are far more problems with the giants offense then eli manning. geno smith give me a break. then again with as bad as the cowboys are on defense smith will probably throw three touchdowns and three hundred yards against us in two weeks.

Agreed. This would have been handled differently some yrs ago. I always admired the Giants organization years ago. The FO always were professional and had class.

 

[lwehlers]

My guess is that Eli will join Tom Coughlin and start for the Jags next year. That team isn't far from being legit.

if I was the jags I would be interested in idea.

Imagine this site if Smith bumbles to a win over the Cowboys.

HAHAHAHA!COWBOYS!!
