Any thoughts on Eli having a bounceback year with this new revamped offense?

I think Victor Cruz is going to cook this year under this West Coast system

Cop out answer but his offensive line will determine whether or not he bounces back. Lot of new faces. Will they come together in time?

He's got some nice weapons to work with though
 
I always thought Nicks was better than Cruz.

The Giants line is pretty much all new. You don't know if they'll click or not. I also don't think the linemen they picked up were good.
IF the line is good, we can get somewhat of a run game going and then you get a much better Eli.
 
If healthy for the whole year, Rashad Jennings should have a very good year for the Giants.

New coordinator and new offensive weapons in Jennings and OBJ should do wonders. But the lack in stable OLine and TE is the big question mark going into the season. Coughlin has his hands full repairing the OLine. It's a young group that will have a lot of pressure on them.

Eli gets clowned alot for his dumb faces. yes he throws INT's but a lot are not his fault. I wish there was a stat for tipped INT's kept bc I swear Eli is the one who gets killed from them the most year after year.

I believe in Robinson, but there's tremendous risk with him. Got faith in McAdoo?

For as many Ints that are 'bad luck' there usually are just as many dropped by DBs (e.g. Anything thrown near Ike Taylor) or not picked when they should be. Usually works out even IMO

That's a fair point. Some years QBs have bad luck and others good luck. I don't mind the blame Eli gets. Week 1 last year, we're making a comeback and Eli hits Da'rel Scott in the hands. Off his hands into a Claiborne or Morris for a pick 6. We had Rueben Randle running the wrong routes and Nicks stopped fighting for the ball.

man i still remember that INT from last year where he overthrew myers the TE who was up off the ground and had his arms outstretched. the ball still went over his finger tips. and guess who got the blame? myers, not eli :lol:

dude's were in here talking about myers running the wrong route, not jumping high enough (because brandon myers is apparently a freak athlete), etc etc.

meanwhile, you have every loss in dallas being blamed on romo. people will always make excuses for their boys and teardown those they hate

i'm sure i've been guilty of it with TB12 at times, but i can usually come around and realize when he's ****** up and when it wasn't his fault :lol:
