The Giants have nothing left to play for but pride, and that's not going very well. So is it time for a benching? Specifically, struggling QB Eli Manning? WFAN's Craig Carton thinks so.
The Seattle Seahawks came to the Big Apple looking to maintain its position as the top seed in the NFC playoff hunt. The New York Giants had very little to play for, since they were eliminated from playoff contention last week.

It's been that kind of year for the Giants. A year of bangs and bruises, of boneheaded throws, of subpar performances.

"We've gotta finish this year," Manning said. "No one knows what's gonna happen next year, who's gonna be around or not. That's the game of football. Things can change quickly."
The loud thud you just heard should not come as any surprise. The Giants, who lost any realistic hope of making the playoffs two weeks ago against Dallas, sealed their fate with a dismal 37-14 loss to the Chargers.
To say that the New York Giants have had an inconsistent season is to be kind. In fact, at times, New York has performed downright poorly, as penalties and poor execution have plagued the G-men all year.

Coupled with wins by the Philadelphia Eagles and San Francisco 49ers, the loss dropped New York out of playoff contention.
