From PFT:
Cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie has walked out on the Giants three times since Friday, according to Dan Graziano of ESPN. The Giants suspended him Wednesday, but, according to Graziano, they will “welcome him back with a clean slate once he has served his punishment.”
Rodgers-Cromartie walked out of the team’s “recovery day” session Friday, per Graziano. Two days later, during the Giants’ loss to the Chargers, the 10-year veteran slammed down his helmet after an argument on the sideline and went to the locker room with what teammates and coaches “understood was the intent to leave the stadium.”
Rodgers-Cromartie met with Ben McAdoo on Tuesday, with the coach informing the one-time Pro Bowler the Giants would have him among their inactives Sunday as punishment. Rodgers-Cromartie was told to practice this week as normal.
But Rodgers-Cromartie left in the middle of the defensive team meeting Wednesday, cleaned out his locker and left the facility, according to Graziano.
Rodgers-Cromartie told Josina Anderson of ESPN that he would rejoin the team Thursday.
Rodgers-Cromartie has started four of five games and played 75.4 percent of the team’s defensive snaps. However, he isn’t happy that much of his playing time has come in the slot, according to Art Stapleton of NorthJersey.com.

You know, I kinda wish they'd win this week. I'd like to see Denver go down, but alas, 0-6 it will probably be. It would be an absolute miracle if this Giant team went to Denver and won... profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2017/10/13/six-giants-already-ruled-out-for-sunday-night/The Giants may have a hard time getting their first win of the year Sunday night, but at least turning in their inactives will be easy. The team has already ruled out six players for Sunday’s game, leaving them short-handed against the Broncos. Linebacker Jonathan Casillas, defensive end Olivier Vernon, wide receiver Sterling Shepard, defensive end Romeo Okwara, running back Paul Perkins, and center Weston Richburg were ruled out already. Throw in rookie third quarterback Davis Webb and the Giants have their inactive list. Of course, this rash of injuries doesn’t even include wide receivers Odell Beckham Jr., Brandon Marshall, or Dwayne Harris, who were placed on injured reserve this week. Or suspended cornerback Dominique Rodgers-Cromartie. It’s almost like things are going poorly for the Giants.

Eli said a few years back that he was on a par with his brother and Brady. Through five games Eli has 5 interceptions (through five games) and Brady has one. Last year through 16 games he had 16 interceptions while Brady had 2 ion twelve games. In 2015 he had 14 to Brady's 7. Lifetime Eli has 328 TDs, 220 INTs and 47 fumbles lost in 13 1/3 years d the starter. Lifetime Tom has 467 TDs, 153 INTs and 44 fumbles lost in a little less than 15 years as the starter. So for Eli it is a 328-267, or 1.22, rate of TD to turnover . For Brady it is 467-197, or 2.37, rate of TD to turnover. ...and that is just the regular seasons where Brady comes off a twice as good and the sad younger brother.

This is an interesting question and answer. I wish I had seen the exchange, because it's all in the demeanor. You could read it as McAdoo dismissing the question as irrelevant. Perception is a matter of perspective and, therefore, doesn't really exist unless you want it to. But if you take the question at face value and read the answer literally, the coach is openly admitting he's lost his team. You don't see guys do that very often. I'm sure McAdoo was being flippant and dismissive, and I don't think I could care much less what happens to the blue team from New Jersery (I have it on good authority that they're going to win 11), but this exchange right here is a good example of how people can just go ahead and believe whatever they want, no matter what you say. And trust me ... they do.
