Even Giants head coach Pat Shurmur is fed up with Eli Manning.
During the 3rd quarter of tonight’s Monday Night Football game in Atlanta, the Giants lined up to go for it on 4th down on the Falcons 2-yard line after driving down the field.
The 4th down play was unfortunately unsuccessful in large part because Eli Manning missed Odell Beckham Jr. on what looked like would be a touchdown:

After the play, ESPN cameras caught Pat Shurmur on the sidelines yelling, “throw it to Odell”:
