Quote:You know you had Eli Manning as a quarterback right? So your last post is a shot at Blake please reevaluate that situation.

Wasn't a shot at Blake at all.

 

In fact, Eli once played a lot like Blake did last year, and even regressed into an interception machine a couple years ago.  I don't know if there's ever been a harder QB to figure out than Eli Manning, and Coughlin endured the experience.

 

And, the entire time, stuck to the system of his team, and put the team above individuals.  He put Kurt Warner on the bench to play Eli, because it was in the best interest of the team.

 

Coughlin often quotes John Wooden, the legendary UCLA coach, and uses his "Pyramid of Success" as a foundation for building his teams.  The pinnacle of that pyramid is "competitive success".  Coughlin's replacement for that pinnacle is "Love", as he told his team before the Giants' win in SB 46.

 

Yeah, he's all about team, and I honestly hope Blake's a part of it.
