ESPN’s Josina Anderson is reporting some damning, if unsurprising, quotes coming from a couple of unnamed players in the 1-7 New York Giants locker room.

It's Time For The Giants To Move On From Eli Manning
The Giants are 1-7 and after the season they’re going to clean house.

Maybe Ben McAdoo's Play-Calling Was The Problem

Giants cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie met with coach Ben McAdoo this morning in an attempt to smooth out has recently become a tempestuous relationship.
