I don't know if there's anything you can say or do to Plaxico Burress at this point to change his mentality as a football player. He's a big, open target down field who's a viable scoring option on every play - and he will quit on one or two of those plays every game. Fact of life.. his antics started in Pittsburgh and they continue unabated in New York. You can bench him, but that doesn't do New York much good, and it isn't going to "rehabilitate" his attitude.
Mathias gets a pass. He was trying to avoid a roughing the passer call, and in his mind, he had Young wrapped up long enough that the play was effectively over. It was bizarre to watch, and frustrating as all hell (considering that if he takes Young down, it's game over,) but it had nothing to do with a lack of effort. Just a mental mistake by a rookie starter.. and something you should expect when your #1, 2 and 3 DEs are hurt.
As far as Eli goes, he was absolutely terrible on Sunday, from start to finish. His first pass of the game landed at Jim Finn's feet, and his last pass of the game was essentially the game-ending interception. His mechanics, decision-making, and confidence are all in the gutter right now, and I don't think anyone knows how to turn it around. Maybe he'll have a long talk with Peyton over the next few days..
Three straight losses, including one of the biggest collapses in franchise history (horrible, horrible memories of San Francisco floating around in my head.) Getting Stray and Umenyiora back on the field may be the only way to keep this season from devolving into a total train wreck, if it hasn't already. 3-0 in the NFC East is now a very tenuous life preserver.

What a disgrace. What a joke Tom Coughlin is as well. His rep is supposed to be running a disciplined ship - and what product have we seen the last 2 seasons from him?! He simply cannot operate at the NFL level.
In the event he has any interest in saving his job he should do something drastic like "Keyshawning" Plaxico Burress. He's a cancer, and a quiter. Professional WRs are plentiful - we don't even need a good one we just need one to play hard to the whistle on every play.
I feel bad for players like Jeremy Shockey, Antonio Pierce, and Tiki Barber who bring it every game, every play no matter what - they just want to win and unlike Plaxico - are willing to work for it.
Eli is weak and the Giants right now would do themselves good by interviewing veteran QBs for a "back up" role.
I am just so angry and feel very much let down in this victory. - Cut Burress - lack of effort may be acceptable for places like Oakland, but not in NY.
I think that's kind of a knee-jerk reaction at this point.. Burress is a big-play threat and i don't think any other WR on the squad is as talented as he is (except for Amani, who's out for the year.) More often than not, Plax makes up for his malaise.. and let's remember that Eli is the one who overthrew the ball to begin with.
Coughlin, I've never liked, and it's clear he doesn't have any sort of hold on that locker room. Tiki has criticized him in the media on two difference instances, and I take Tiki's side in any dispute between the two. The Giants are in the Top 3 in the league in penalty yards since Coughlin took over.. so much for being a disciplinarian.
The team has no confidence in the coaching staff. The offense has no rythym. The defense is exhausted. If you want to cut someone, cut Tim Carter who has been a do nothing for three years.
I'm glad that Eli, Strahan, and Short all are stepping on Burress.
He's so inconsistent its infuriating. Then again so is Eli.
Perhaps my expectations were too high for a team that has more than a half dozen starters out.
I was just talking to someone about this the other day.. we've been out 5-7 defensive starters every game. Starters!
