I'm benching Victor Cruz for ______________ (1 Viewer)

On pace for 1200 yards.

Randle looks terrible to me. He had a sure first down and cut back, losing the first down and leaving them in third and 2. He gets alligator arms across the middle, and never seems to catch the ball in stride, yet they seem to force feed him at times. Maddening.

8-89 on 10 targets. I mean, he might not be the best/most explosive player on the field, but "terrible" just doesn't fit. He ran some nice routes and caught 80% of the balls tossed his way.

Cruz did look more inspired in his play but to be fair, Eli had enough time to do his taxes back there with that lack of a Skins pass rush. The NYG offense is improving but I'm still really skeptical because a hurried Eli is an entirely different player and so is that offense.

Cruz made it back into my lineup due to the byes but I'd be concerned with a D that can get to the QB.

Can't you say that about every QB in the league?

It's feeling better to own Cruz but, I'd still like to see the Giants O against an above average defense.

I'm having mild sellers remorse.

 

[Chaka]

At this point I am not benching him.

The only way you'd have buyer's remorse at this point is if you overpaid or drafted too early. He's been fine.

 

[Slapdash]

Picking up just in time for byes.

Sure, you can say that but Eli makes more mistakes under those circumstances and even an average pass rush than the average QB in the last 2 years.. Just look at the numbers.

Looks like this thread is relevant again.
