Most of this is because Eli Manning is a husk of himself and presently either unable o...
You Can't Hide Eli Manning
Here’s a fun thing to think about: Has an offense with the quality of skill players that the New York Giants possess ever looked this bad?

Red Sox Survive Near Ass-Shitting, Eliminate Yankees
