The New York Giants are headed down the same path that they've been accustomed to for quite a while now and the only way to change their franchise woes and direction is make moves that make sense. Catch my drift? It may be time to shake up their front office if they cannot make the proper moves to have this organization back at an elite level.
They made some great off-season moves to bolster their roster by drafting talented running back Saquon Barkley, trading for Alec Ogletree and bringing in new head coach Pat Shurmur to give their offense a boost, but the same lingering problems keep rearing their ugly heads, which at this point is becoming a disgrace to Giants fans.
Eli Manning is playing his 15th season in the Big Apple, but let's be real here, the execution and flow of the offense is off rhythm. Eli is a turnover machine which is putting the Giants behind early and coming from behind is not their forte. The 2-time super bowl champion has seen his better days and now it's just a respect thing with the Giants front office. Keeping Eli as the starter in 2017 cost Ben McAdoo his job as the G-men would finish 3-13. Manning says "I have confidence in myself, I can still play", but does he really believe that?
Another issue with the Giants is their frustrated superstar receiver Odell Beckham Jr., who lets his emotions get the best of him. His antics are getting old and becoming a distraction to the Giants team. Beckham signed a $95 million dollar extension before the season, but it seems he's still not matured enough to become the face of the Giants franchise. He has to understand that in a media market as big as New York, you can't make senseless mistakes on or off the football field.
These are the two constant obstacles that the Giants put themselves through week after week, but if they don't change their way of thinking, this franchise could get set back again. Here is what they should do........
