Looks like he's off to a typical Rookie start. He going to have to do some improving to earn that 19 MILLION $ this year.

Eli Manning was brutal against the Jets in their preseason game Friday night. The Giants' rookie quarterback connected on just four of 14 passes for 20 yards, was intercepted twice, sacked twice, and fumbled. Meanwhile, Kurt Warner went 9-for-11 for 104 yards. "I never got in a groove," Manning told the Associated Press after the game. "I made bad decisions, I made mental mistakes. I've got to learn from this and get better."

Advantage: Warner. The Jets threw a bunch of different looks and blitzes at Manning and seemed to flummox him. You have to think other teams will be looking to do the same thing unless the G-men open the season with the veteran Warner.

He will never earn his pay this year but I think with time he will be a pretty good quarter back.................maybe.

It all depends on who he has around him.

Unless their Offensive line improves, any qb they throw back there will have a bad night. ;)
