EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. (CBSNewYork/AP) — Coach Ben McAdoo insists the New York Giants didn’t quit in their ugly, one-sided loss to the Los Angeles Rams.

While the Giants’ performance in the 51-17 thrashing was ugly and unacceptable, McAdoo hesitated to say Monday that his team played hard to the end. The second-year coach said he didn’t see his players loafing or giving up on plays, signs he says would show a team that quit.

The second-year coach also said two-time Super Bowl MVP Eli Manning will remain the starting quarterback, and that players and coaches will be held accountable for the poor play.
