The Giants' 0-6 start is the worst for the organization since it lost a franchise-worst nine in a row in 1976, a season that saw coach Bill Arnsparger fired after seven games.
Forget about it. The mission no longer is about saving New York's playoff hopes, it's about finding out which pieces need to be part of the new foundation.
"I'm not (losing confidence)," the three-time Pro Bowler told Francesa. "You can't get gun-shy as a quarterback. It didn't affect me during the game ... Most of it is just decision-making."
Eli? Coach Coughlin? GM Jerry Reese? You decide!
"There were a lot of bogus calls in that game," Rolle told Benigno and Roberts. "I will admit, there were a lot of calls that should not have been made."
It's not even Halloween and the Giants and Rangers are both frightful messes. The trick is on New York sports fans. Both teams started the season with high hopes. Both appear to be on a direct line to disaster.
Thursday's loss in Chicago dropped Big Blue to 0-6, their worst start since the sorry season of 1976. And now some are banging the drum for New York to sit the two-time Super Bowl MVP.
It's a recurring theme for the Giants, as a crucial turnover in the fourth quarter doomed New York. Eli Manning overthrew Brandon Myers, and Tim Jennings intercepted the errant pass to preserve the Bears 27-21 victory over New York. The Giants are 0-6 for only the second time in team history.
The Giants were moving the ball, driving for the potential winning score when Eli Manning got picked off one final time. And the losing streak continues.
Cutler threw two touchdown passes to Marshall, and Jennings had two of the Chicago Bears' three interceptions against Eli Manning in a 27-21 victory over the winless New York Giants on Thursday night.

No team that started 0-5 team has ever made the NFL playoffs, which means the Giants can cling to the long-shot belief that they could become the first. But it has to start with a win Thursday night over the Chicago Bears
"Let baby brother know that we believe in his football skills," the letter reads. "We know his recent questionable judgment on the field and in Hoboken politics can be corrected."
On the surface, this would seem like an easy one for the Chicago Bears. They're trying to get back to winning against a team that hasn't won a game all season.
The Chicago Bears have lost back-to-back games to the Detroit Lions and the New Orleans Saints, and if they lose Thursday night to the winless Giants, a full-fledged panic will envelop the City of Broad Shoulders.
"It's wide open and obviously we're two games back right now," the three-time Pro Bowler said on Tuesday. "Obviously we've got to play better football and do those things, but we still feel that we can get hot."
As far as his own play is concerned, Eli Manning has said things aren't as bad as they seem. Terry Bradshaw disagrees.
If somebody is going to take the blame for New York's miserable start, it's Tom Coughlin. The 67-year-old coach pointed the finger at himself for the Giants' worst start since the 1987 strike season.
The executives at NFL Network probably had this game circled during the summer. Two longtime NFL franchises, each with a storied past; fighting for position in the NFC playoff picture. Instead Thursday Night's contest pits a winless New York Giants squad (0-5) against a reeling Chicago Bears team coming off two consecutive losses after starting the season 3-0.
Even though the opponent and venue figure to be difficult to deal with, Eli Manning is actually happy his Giants play again on Thursday. Then again, when you are 0-5 beggars really can't be choosers.
Ignoring the ignorant cackling from Twitter trolls, and other anonymous hacks sniping from the comfort of their cubicles or hiding behind handles in grandma's basement, it's obvious the Giants aren't anemic under center or the headset.
At 0-5 and with their season looking more and more like a train wreck with each passing day, the Giants are drawing the ire of their fans and are becoming the butt of certain jokes usually reserved for the Jets.
It was another week, another late-game meltdown and another loss.
"(It's) embarrassing, ridiculous, infuriating, frustrating -- whatever you want to say," Francesa said. "It's as bad as it could possibly be. It's not even worth saying the season's over. Everybody knows the season's over.
