Reports that Giants are likely to fire McAdoo tomorrow means their handling of Eli situation makes even less sense which I didn't think was possible.

Giants owner John Mara's anger over last week was obvious to those around the organization over the last week. Was told Mara was "furious" over the damage done to the team's image in the wake of the Manning benching.

Steve Spagnuolo is a good defensive coach. Hopefully they give him a look.

Giants coaches and staffers had final game-planning discussions today and sources say the expected result is finalized: Eli Manning is the starting quarterback. On Sunday vs the Cowboys, he’ll extend his streak to one.

McAdoo was 11-5 his first year then fired. That's one reason why I'm pumping the brakes on this year's "wondercoach", Sean McVay.

Mara jacked this up and fired everybody except himself. No way McAdoo decided this on his own and the owner wasn’t aware. He got rid of the body faster than jimmy Hoffa.

Eli ain't going no where....had Bob survived this and maintained as the coach...Eli was out the door...but now....NO WAY! The new hires will all say, "YES I want ELI and YES we can get the ship corrected."

NO WAY he's gone now.

Lost amidst Giants mess is Davis Webb should be starting Sunday. No point in starting Eli especially now that streak is over.
was strange they started Geno...they know what he is. if the point in benching eli was to learn it should have been Webb under center last week...
personal vendetta?? or pure stupidity on macadoos part?
