    another classic Eli quote

    When asked about having 8th highest yard total in history:

    “If you count all my interception yardage,” Manning said with a half smile, “I’d probably be No. 1.”

    730 yds/2 = 365 ys/game X 16 = 5840.

    4 td's/2 = 2td's/game X 16 =32.

    I think getting 32 is a reasonable expectation...but maybe not 5840.

    We shouldn't need 500 yards from Eli every game if we're winning. Would be nice to win more comfortably once in a while, lol.

    His INTs were passes a high school player would make.... I dont get what happened.

    glad we won, otherwise Eli would be traded by 99% of the poeple on this message board. Thank God for that last 8 minutes.

    Actually, 2 of the 3 INTs were great individual plays by the Tampa defenders.

    He was out partying with his wife all night. He was hungover in the first half. We've all been there.
