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!

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.
