Excerpt: "New York Giants (http://www.giants101.com/tag/new-york-giants/) quarterback Eli Manning (http://www.giants101.com/tag/eli-manning/) is in a slump. He may not want to call it that, Tom Coughlin (http://www.giants101.com/tag/tom-coughlin/) may not want to call it that, and his teammates may not want to call it that, but when it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and throws like a duck … it's a slump. Still, Big Blue's fearless leader claims he's not worried about his struggles or the teams' struggles in recent weeks … even after a 31-13 beatdown at the hands of the lowly Cincinnati Bengals (http://www.giants101.com/2012/11/11/second-half-swoon-in-full-effect-as-new-york-giants-get-dominated-by-cincinnati-bengals-31-13/).
"I’m not worried. Every year we have gone through stretches where we didn’t play our best football (http://www.giants101.com/tag/football/) and we were still able to bounce back. That’s what is going on right now," Manning said. "I have to start playing better personally and we need to as a group as well. We still have good players and a good scheme. We just have to put it together better."
Statistically, this is one of the worst stretches of Manning's career. In fact, there are any number of statistics that can be pointed out that not only back up that statement, but back up the Giants' overall futility in recent weeks. Moreover, it's doing little to shed the stigma of them being a very bad team in both November and the second half of the NFL (http://www.giants101.com/tag/nfl/) season under head coachTom Coughlin (http://www.giants101.com/tag/tom-coughlin/)."
