ESPN’s Sal Paolantonio interview with NY Giants QB Eli Manning and Head Coach Coughlin was positive in terms of the young wide receiver corp, but that's how all coaches and players come acoss! Thanks Den.
-Over the final 23 quarters of the season, Manning threw zero touchdown passes to his teammates who play receiver. And that group included veteran Amani Toomer, who has since joined Burress in the category of “former Giant.” On the positive side, both Coach Coughlin and Eli like the fact that you can get more done as a team when players show up and are ready to work hard at practice unlike Plaxico: -“It sends the right message,” Coughlin said. “It tells everybody that every guy is here for the same reason and trying to help our team be as good as it can be. It is very difficult to get that done when we are not here. Guys are here working. You have the older guys sharing with the younger guys. You have that natural process. And obviously you are trying to create the team concept with everything that you do. And to have everyone here certainly helps escalate that.” and -“It’s not exactly like starting over, but we are trying right now to get on the same page,” said Manning. “I’m trying to learn their body language. I’m trying to talk to them on the field and in the huddle and in the meetings, trying to develop chemistry. You don’t want any bad habits to develop.” The projected WR starters are Steve Smith and Domenik Hixon, with Sinorice Moss in the slot. Mario Manningham and David Tyree are in the fourth and fifth spots, while rookies Hakeem Nicks and Ramses Barden ramain at the bottom, for now. Should be a fun and interesting 2009 season finding how Eli & the Kids progress, move the chains and score TD's! Any thoughts?

Eli will join Phil Simms and yes Jeff Hostetler as the most beloved Giants QB's for winning the Super Bowl. But before I call Eli the best it would be nice if he could win a playoff game at home. His performances vs Carolina and Philadelphia were less then stellar. The loss to Philly was heart breaking because once Arizona beat Carolina the Giants bath to the Super Bowl should have been a cake walk.. There was no way Arizona was going to win in sub-zero temperatures. Eli is a lot like Plaxico.. When he's on he's great, when he's not you want to break a hole in your TV set. Best ever, maybe in the future but certainly not now.. Y.A. Tittle, Charlie Conerly, Fran Tarkenton, and Phil Simms are four names that come to mind when I think of best ever..

ELI WILL HAVE GIANT FANS CONFUSSED FOR HIS CAREER. JUST WHEN YOU THINK HE TAKES A STEP FORWARD, HE TAKES TWO STEPS BACK. MAYBE I'M UPSET BECAUSE THE GIANTS HAVE TALENT. BUT WHEN I SEE RECEIVERS OPEN AND THE BALL IS HIGH, BEHIND THE RECEIVER, OR WAY OFF THE MARK, I SHAKE MY HEAD. WE WILL ALWAYS BE CONFUSSED ABOUT ELI, HE IS NOT AN ACCURATE PASSER.
