Clown said: Eli Manning was unceremoniously benched this past sunday, and I thought for sure that loud mouthed Douche Bag Richard Sherman would be up in arms! It seems he is very concerned about quarterbacks getting benched when they under-perform. This is a shocker for sure... I have been searching social media for days just waiting for him to cry "Outrage!" So I am writing him this letter: Dearest Richard, Why have you gone silent Richard? Is this not your fight to fight as well? It baffles me why you would for one, but not another? Is this silence a new, cool way of protest? Please help me understand, you leave us little people so confused, and poor Eli to face this travesty all alone, when his heart could be warmed in the cockles of your tweets. Warmly yours, Homey D.

I watched him make some fantastic throws in that game and his hail mary to Tyree started with him showing some amazing escapability and awareness. Don't think it was luck. He gave his guy a chance to make a great play and he did. If he sucked, they wouldn't even have been in that position. They were underdogs every step of the way that year and Eli answered the bell. This is coming from someone who isn't biased to those games mister Pats fan...He has shown to be an incredibly clutch QB throughout his career when it comes to playoffs and super bowls. My point is, you're going to tell me he deserves to sit on the bench behind Geno Smith? That's absolute garbage. So disrespectful to their franchise QB who has helped give them two super bowls. Embarrassing really. Expand What you called escapability and awareness I called Houdini lol. I also believe the Giants D won that first SB and Manning was along for the ride and got lucky as all hell. The second SB they had the better team, unlike what the poster said "inferior teams"

They offered him a series or two to keep his streak alive. I respect him for saying no thanks. He did not have the option to stay the true "starter".

87168 Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 (edited) haha this thread is absurd. comparing the benching of a QB on a team that was 5-4 at the time versus a team that is currently 2-9. to the op: you should channel that inane hatred you hold for a person that doesn't even know you exist, and do something positive.

But my God when they didn't make the playoffs he stunk up the joint with INT galore and just poor decision making. Man thrives in the playoffs though.
Victory Formation Posted November 29, 2017 Posted November 29, 2017 Was he not right about Tyrod? I don't see a problem with Richard Sherman, has absolutely nothing to do with race, nothing at all.

He's done tremendously well in the playoffs and SB a couple of years ago, but can stink up the joint during the regular season. I have thought for a while now that both Eli and Flacco are very similar QBs: can play well on the big stage, can stink it up during the mundane games, but neither really playing worth their larger contracts. 2

Why bench a player who has proven to be clutch when the front office hasn't provided him with any offensive line or guys that know how to run or catch the ball for that matter. The drops from that team is embarrassing. The guy has been a part of two super bowls and he's the one that's getting blamed?? Just not logical to me.

They'll probably look for his replacement, the situation leading up to that just feels so mismanaged
