The New York Giants shocked the NFL world on Tuesday when they announced that Eli Manning has been benched as the starting quarterback in favor of Geno Smith.

The move will end Manning's streak of 210 consecutive starts for the Giants, the second-longest streak in NFL history. It could also mark the end of Manning's tenure with the club.

Manning's streak of consecutive starts dated back to 2004. Below, we take a look at just how different the world was the last time the Giants had a different starting quarterback.

The last time the Giants had a starting quarterback not named Eli Manning was November 14, 2004. It was Week 10 of the season and Kurt Warner was the starting quarterback.



A week later, Manning was under center, making his first career start against the Atlanta Falcons. He looked a little younger.



Two days before Manning's first start, Ron Artest went into the stands to fight a fan, leading to the infamous "Malice in the Palace."
