I can’t believe this is such a big story.....declining QB on a shit team is “benched”....BFD.

he still has 2 or 3 years left in him

Where is he playing next year?

Hopefully still with the Giants. But maybe Denver or Jacksonville. I wonder if he would consider the Jets? It will have to be a playoff ready team with a good coach but that doesn't have a quarterback.

also it's how it was handled? 

they said, “you can start but we want to look at our other QB’s.” Eli said, “then I don’t want to start.”

He's not going to play a half just for a consecutive streak.

Eli deserves better than this; not that it matters to anyone but I will not watch another snap for the rest of the year.  this is a tough pill to swallow.

I am right there with you. I had my rant elsewhere, I will hold back my anger here. No class or loyalty left in my team.

I get it. I’m just holding off on the pity party.

Still can't believe Mara let this happen this way

The correct thing to do would have been punt greasy down the road. I'm not certain, but I imagine it was a real challenge for the players to take him seriously with all that brylcreem slopped on his head.

This situation is a shitty one. Week 1 or 2 Eli buggered up some clock management at the end of a half. Short of some other 'typical' errors QBs make... he's far from the problem with this train wreck.

Get a RB. Get some O-Linemen. Get OBJ back. And they're back in the mix. This move has to be deflating to the players.

i agree, I can't see an inspired team out there tomorrow. Interesting to see what the fan turnout and reaction will be. But I'm not watching. I'm out of denial and into the angry phase of grieving.

Bye bye, Ben

igotid88

Niners lost. So that's the 2nd pick for now

igotid88

No Cooper and Crabtree for Oakland. So we're still in it

Wobbie

jeebus, this game is ugly.

igotid88

I knew Rivers was right behind Eli in TD passes. But I didn't know it was that close. 

igotid88

Of course Rosas hits a 52 yard fg now.

Cliffy6745

Didn't see one second. Solid loss with the niners winning

igotid88

Carr went to Eli after the game for the handshake.

looks like after since this was written after the game

Geno Smith going after Rex Ryan at post game press conference. Eli not even throwing McAdoo under the bus.

geno looked better than eli has.

did you drink a whole bottle of chardonnay again? what makes you think he looked better? because he led two td drives?!

I’m not a wine drinker.

the eli era is over. the geno smith era has begun.

Geno is a free agent. Unless they release Eli or he accepts a trade. I don't see that happening
