Eli has just 4 TD and 4 INT over 4 games. And 3 of those TDs came in Week 1. With OBJ, Cruz, and Shepard the offense was meant to be built on big plays down field - instead they've barely looked down field at all because other teams have figured out they just need to have a few guys in cloud coverage to turn Eli into Captain Checkdown. Or in the case today, Captain Throwdown. I've never seen Eli play scared like this before, dude was just throwing balls into the ground within 2 seconds due to a total lack of trust in the pass protection around him.

Eli and McAdoo need to come up with a new attack before this season spirals out of control with Green Bay, Baltimore, and the always weird London trip coming up. Then the Eagles and Bengals after that. The Chicago and Cleveland cream puff games might come too late in the season to help them.
