Almost crying, tough to see #Giants /cHRTZYEXK4- Pat Leonard November 28, 2017īenching Eli served no practical purpose. Manning was distraught.Įli Manning fight back tears. And the Giants didn’t have their quarterback of the future on the roster their backup was Geno Smith, a then-27-year-old who had started just one game in the past two seasons. Before this Week 13 game against the Raiders, Manning had started 222 consecutive games dating back to 2004, a streak that was then second in league history to Brett Favre’s 321-start stretch. Instead, it served to piss off an entire fan base and expedite the end of McAdoo’s tenure. He probably thought this would show how much he cared about the future of the franchise. So then–head coach Ben McAdoo-the one with the comically bad haircut and comically oversized play sheet-decided to bench Manning. As the calendar turned to December, the team was 2-9 and in desperate need of an overhaul. The quarterback was 36 years old at the time, and producing at the lowest rate since he was a rookie. It made sense that the Giants would think about moving on from Eli Manning toward the end of the 2017 season. The End of Eli’s Starting Streak (December 3, 2017) He looked like someone who, you know, had slept at any point within the past week. This was all foreseeable from Gase’s introductory press conference, when he showed up with the paranoid energy of a soon-to-be-assassinated drug lord on the fourth day of a cocaine-and-murdering binge.īy comparison, watch Gase’s introductory press conference with the Dolphins in 2016. He never seemed to care if he put his players’ long-term health at risk he “spurned sports science” to make his practices more intense he executed a power play to become the team’s interim general manager and pick the team’s next full-time GM and he repeatedly acted as if the media were victimizing him. Lots of coaches have lost games with the Jets, but Gase’s tenure was ugly for more than just the record alone. Then Gase came to New York and ruined his reputation in two seasons flat. He wasn’t a great coach, but he appeared to be relatively competent, and he had a group of prominent supporters that included Peyton Manning. Adam Gase’s Eyes Go Wild (January 14, 2019)īefore being hired by the Jets in 2019, Adam Gase had spent almost 16 years working in the NFL. Considering the way mono is generally transmitted, though, he probably hooked up with somebody.

Sam Darnold “Out Indefinitely” Generator /6ajPJd6Woy- Burke Communications September 18, 2019ĭarnold wasn’t able to hook up with most of his receivers during his three seasons in New York. For a while, doctors feared that a violent tackle could cause the quarterback’s enlarged spleen to rupture.īut then ESPN made the following graphic for the Jets’ Monday Night Football game against the Browns. The spread of infectious disease is rarely funny, and while mono tends to be relatively harmless-one of the primary symptoms is tiredness-Darnold faced a risk of future complications. I tried not to laugh when Darnold had to miss multiple games in 2019 due to a bout of mononucleosis. With honorable mentions to John Mara apparently knocking over trash cans in a fit of rage, Sam Darnold throwing a pick-six on his first NFL pass attempt, and the entire Jason Garrett offensive coordinator experience, here are the bottom 10. After all, New York has always been a hub for great comedy.Īs a Jets fan and a friend to many Giants fans, I set out to compile the worst moments of this five-year stretch during which both New York teams have occupied the league’s cellar. They aren’t just losing week after week-they’re elaborately pratfalling in their billion-dollar stadium. They’ve been stubborn in their ineptitude, and prone to high-level embarrassments. And it’s not clear whether either team is headed in the right direction with their current brain trusts.īut the Jets and Giants haven’t merely been bad. Both have cycled through multiple head coaches and used top draft picks on bad quarterbacks. (The Jaguars are in 30th place at 24-56, two games clear of that duo with one game left in the 2021 regular season.) During that span, neither the Jets nor Giants have made the playoffs or had a winning record. Since 2017, the two New York teams are tied for the worst record in the NFL: 22-58. But whereas those stadiums are home to teams still in NFL playoff contention, MetLife is home to two of the worst teams in the league: the Jets and Giants, two big failures from the Big Apple. MetLife Stadium is the third-most-expensive sports venue ever built, behind only SoFi Stadium in Los Angeles and Allegiant Stadium in Las Vegas.
