Bus driver Ben McAdoo throws Eli Manning under the wheels

For the second straight week, the New York Giants looked absolutely terrible. The Detroit Lions went into MetLife Stadium and dominated the Giants 24-10 on Monday Night Football.

The Giants looked bad in all three phases of the game (they even allowed an 88-yard punt return touchdown), but it was the offense that was especially awful.

And after the game, Giants head coach Ben McAdoo was particularly critical of quarterback Eli Manning for a delay of game penalty on 4th-and-goal from the 2-yard line when trailing 17-7 in the third quarter.

First, here’s a look at the play:

And here are McAdoo’s comments after the game:

“Sloppy quarterback play. The quarterback and the center need to be on the same page there; we gotta get the ball snapped.

We have a veteran quarterback who’s played a lot of football. I expect to get the ball snapped.”

Those are pretty eye-opening comments from a head coach about a two-time Super Bowl winning quarterback. As ESPN’s Louis Riddick said about McAdoo’s comments, “Regardless of whether it’s fair or not, is that ever really a good look?”

What good can come from these comments? If McAdoo has a problem with Manning’s play, they can talk privately. Instead, he’s created a distraction (especially when it comes to the New York media), and that’s about the last thing this team needs right now.
