Eli Apple and Janoris Jenkins are playing like dog doo. Never liked Apple but thought Jenkins was real. It looked like a Chinese fire drill out there.

How much did the giants sign Nate Solder for?

Current Contract Nate Solder signed a 4 year, $62,000,000 contract with the New York Giants, including a $16,000,000 signing bonus, $34,800,000 guaranteed, and an average annual salary of $15,500,000.

Ouch. Have taken a QB, Davis Webb in 3rd round 2 years ago. Took Kyle Lauletta 4th round 2018. Do they go QB again? Eli is done. Never a franchise QB. Chargers got the better end of that Manning family decision.

Okay.... neutral field.... Giants vs Cards .... who wins?

Ben McAdoo was not the problem and he benched Eli last year. Meddling owners.

What makes you say that?

Dude shows anger because he wants to win & hates that washed up QB is continually to let him & the rest of the offense down.
lol are you kidding? he's gone on record SEVERAL times that he wants to be a bigger part of the offense, then goes on to cite all the other top WRs in the league with how many targets they get a game. his complaints are ALWAYS stat driven.

I’m really trying hard to see what’s wrong with this.

Give me some examples please.

Did you even watch the ESPN story? He clearly singled out Shurmur & Eli which is exactly why the HC went off on the media last Sunday.

The guys a jackass! Me, me, I, me, I etc etc etc. that’s what his interview consisted of.

And yes many former greats are calling him out

Yea, it made the team have their best offensive showing since 2015 against one of the league’s best teams.

Eli is clearly the problem with the Giants. The sooner he retires or gets benched, the sooner the Giants will start winning again.

I mean, does anybody really care about what 50 year old men with the “Get off my lawn” mentality has to say? They’re going to see it one way & one way only.

2018 Cardinals Goal - suck worse than the Giants, so the Giants have to trade up with us to get a QBOTF

Maybe it’s because I’m from a younger generation, but I don’t care about players with “diva” type personalities as long as they’re great at what they do. It makes for great entertainment. It doesn’t make players like ODell, Antonio Brown, or even mis-labeled Cam a better person off the field any less than it does for players like Julio Jones, AJ Green, & Andrew Luck.

I cant stand'em... Divas are just *******. Football is a full on TEAM sport.
a guy like odell cant do poo unless at least six other guys do their job well...
center has to make a good snap,...the entire line has to pick up their blocking assignments,... then the qb has to make a good throw.....and all that only works assuming he got open in the first place
grandstanding shows poor character... that carries on or off the field. The young guy is in a position where he has a chance to be a long term leader for that team. he should be using his pulpit to motivate his entire team to step up...instead he cries like a little girl that he aint getting enough attention.... his mama should be embarrassed.

this is one of the biggest reasons I am a Larry fan. Dude never bad talks his team and when he scores he hands the ball to the ref instead of dry humping the goal post. Team player, class act.

young guys could learn something if they didnt have their head so far up their anus

I believe ODell is a team player. It’s just not your standard “say & do all the so-called correct political things”.

he just shows amazing immaturity...it causes poor judgement...he did the same things at lsu.
he could have accomplished more by speaking with eli and the OC in private in regards to finding more ways to get the ball in his hands.

I know what it is. I was breaking balls. It's no more racist than ***** in the armor which, apparently, is now a racist term.

OBJ is a fantastic talent, no doubt but he is unhinged. He is not only immature some of his antics are downright insane looking. I like passion and fire in a player but not juvenile and ridiculous actions while a game is going on.

OBJ is not the first, not the only one who has displayed this characteristic. To me he's just the most ridiculous since John Riggins was doing his crazy crap with Washington back in the day.

I don't want OBJ on the Cardinals...EVER. Others disagree and that's fine.

Of course, if he ended up here and helped win a Super Bowl I just might change my tune ;-)

Team players don’t pull the crap he’s been pulling for 2-3 years now!!! That’s reality.

Eli is done no doubt, but OBJ isn’t helping matters in NY with his 10 year old antics.
