When I think back to the Phil Simms era, we really didn't have a lot of big named receivers and we were pretty successful. With Eli, I really do believe we have the receivers who can get the job done right now.

I agree. It worked for Jerry Rice. Jerry Rice's ability was to catch the ball, immediately turn up the field and then go down and not take that awkward hit. It wasn't until the twilight of his career that he started getting injuries that could effect his career and even then he went on to play a bunch of more years. He was a pretty good YAC receiver as well.

My comparison to Megatron and other top receivers was to make a point that people were saying he had a case of the dropsies. He had no more case of the dropsies than other receivers to include the vaunted Megatron. Some were better, many were worse, but he was right there in the pack and had production as well. Even Jerry Rice dropped balls.

I also hope you are not talking about his stats being in the offseason because the Giants don't play in the offseason and did not make the post season. Plus, post season statistics stand on their own and are not part of the season totals.

The guy is good and has been for two years in the NFL and shown flashes in the first preseason that led the Giants to keeping him on the roster. He is by far one of the most consistent parts of the team.

I'm still looking for that lack of humility by the way but haven't seen it with Cruz.
