“You and I and anyone else can only speculate what Eli was thinking, but you have to think that deep down inside a part of him — not wanted to see Daniel Jones fail but not play at the level he did,” Favre said on Sirius XM NFL, via NJ.com. “Not that Eli has to prove anything to anyone.

“And all the things that have been leading to the team’s losses falls back on you — and you know that’s not the case. It’s hard to say, ‘Heck, I guess it’s me. I guess the reason we are losing these games is because of me.’ You have to believe that at some point that crosses his mind.”
