The Giants miss Eli’s late-game heroics
Eli Manning is notorious for his fourth-quarter comebacks. It’s a staple of his career and one of the reasons he’s been so successful. This is not a knock on Daniel Jones, who, as a rookie, can only do so much. His experience level just isn’t there yet.
The Giants have had a few opportunities to win late in the fourth and simply could not get it done (save for Week 3 against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers). Manning’s late-game magic could have possibly garnered the Giants a few more wins this season, where Jones’ rookie limitations could not get it done.
