Prevented a franchise-worst losing streak

The Giants are a bad football team right now. Historically bad. They did not win a game in either October or November for the first time in their long and illustrious history and entering Sunday, were mired in a nine-game losing streak, which was tied for the worst in team history.

One more loss and the Giants would have had a new black mark that could never be erased. It would have happened under the watch of co-owners John Mara and Steve Tisch, general manager Dave Gettleman and head coach Pat Shurmur.

Those four would have never been able to escape the stain of a 10-game losing streak, but Manning saved them from themselves.

Leave it to Manning to save the organization one last time after they have failed him so bad in recent years.
