Giants and Browns Lose Again

Eh...we've seen guys benched at halftime. 1 of them was Steve Young lol!

 

The Giants, in a unique situation, could actually go 0-16. Teams have been bad with nothing to lose then somehow won a game. The Giants were picked to win the division by alot of people outside of New York, having made the playoffs last year. Meanwhile people in New York were grumbling about Macadoo (similar to people in GB about McCarthy) and now they have injuries piled up. Their spirit might be broken. 

 

And I know this forum has a soft spot for Eli but elsewhere people are kind of rooting for them to go 0-16 now because of how surreal it would be and because the sypmathy that basement teams get towards winning 1 game as the season goes on just isn't there.

I'm also a huge Rivers fan but I've about written him off. He'll go down with grandpa Manning, Bert Jones, and some of those guys...a guy who just didn't get the damg breaks.

 

Chargers have been awful for years. It just amazes me, since I remember their peak for a while there when they were SB favorites a lot and gave us fits of hell.

Should be good times coming for Eli!!!

If I was him...I'd check into a run every play...that team is awful on offense. Expecting him to carry them isn't exactly fair. Two more losses and they probably let the coach go....but Eli has looked washed up before and found his mojo...they just need a lot of help on that OL.

And we never heard him complain. Just played the game like a winner.

I didn't like Kizer coming out of the draft and I think the Browns made a mistake selecting him in the 2nd round.  I think they are finally starting to do things the right way, but it will take time.  I think this year's QB class will be better, so they should have waited to take one of these upcoming guys as their future franchise QB.

 

As for the Giants, they are the most talented and accomplished 0-5 team I can recall.  Not sure what the problem there is, but a lot of people are saying it's on the head coach

The Cleveland Clowns swapped QBs at halftime. Has there ever been a greater kick in the teeth than that? Then there I the Giants with a "Manning" quarterbacking.

 

Yea, it's a tale of two opposites. On one hand, you have a team who relentlessly swaps QB's, and another team who never swaps QB's who should!

 

Eli's a cool guy and all, but the only reason they're keeping him is because he did win two Superbowl rings and he has a brother named Peyton. Ever since Peyton retired, Eli has went from an above average QB to an atrocious one.

Yeah, Tom Coughlin goes to the Jags and they start playing smarter football. 

 

It would be a stretch to even get a 2nd rounder for Eli if they were to trade him.

Actually, yea, it's definitely Coughlin. I like that reason better, lol.

The giants will not go 0-16 this year.

Because I point out the obvious?

 

I mean the Giants (since I posted) won a game. You didn't catch the date so you had to respond that the Giants aren't going 0-16 (because 1-8 totally shoots that down, and I must not have known they won a game). Good grief man.

 

And I'll leave the Kizer thing to that poster if they wish to get into that.

Yep...I think he is the same guy before the draft that grew up with Joe Mixon and told us he was going to be the next coming of Walter Payton or something like that. Just be careful because I think he is Kizers Agent.

      Best NFL Player From Your State

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      Bo Jackson is the greatest athlete of all-time, if anyone thinks otherwise, I want what they are drinking . He was a great NFL football player/RB, good Pro baseball player. Could bench press 450 pounds down to chest and up once and run a 40 in 4.1.

      2024 NBA, Pacers and all NBA talk

      He is and he is overrated. He is a great player but I could even argue his teammate Brown is better. Let me say this, I know I come off as a Tatum hater, I really am not. He just never performs in the playoffs like a #1 option. Brown won the MVP for example. Take Brown off that team and the Mavs would have definitely beat them then. Tatum is on a loaded team, they have Brown, Porzingis, White, Holiday, and Horford.    Off the top of my head, players that are better than Tatum are: Joker, Luka, Giannis, Embiid, Edwards, SGA, and even Brown - so he isn't top 7. I would even take Brunson and Haliburton over him - they have more responsibility playing PG and are young as well. I have Tatum top 10 - he is slightly better than Butler and Mitchell, Tatum is great but shaky at times, he cracks my top 10 because LeBron, Curry, and Durant are old and Leonard is always injured. Without Haliburton, the Pacers would be a .500 team. Without Brunson so would the Knicks. Without Tatum, Boston would still win 55 games with Brown/Porzingis/Holiday/White/Horford, they could have won around 70 this past season but quit playing the last 2 weeks.

      Caitlin Clark selected #1 by Fever/ Fever 2024 Season Thread **Updated title**

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      Fever are now in 7th, 8 teams make the playoffs. I think they will get in. Clark is great already, I figured she would be. Screw her critics!

      The whole division stinks except for the Brewers and Cards. Cubs have played like doo doo and are only 1 game out of 3rd place  .

      Rookie Khyree Jackson killed in crash

      By 2006Coltsbestever · Posted

      This is another reason why we should enjoy our time here and not bicker with friends and family. A life can be gone in a split-second no matter how big and strong anyone is. This is truly sad, and the kid had everything. RIP.   Word of advice, if you are going to drink alcohol, that is fine but DONT DRIVE!
