Despite a 3-6 record to start the 2014 NFL season, the NY Giants remain confident in their abilities and believe they have what it takes to upend the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
For the Giants to pull off the victory, it will likely take a vintage Eli Manning performance to put New York over the hump at MetLife Stadium.
If Manning is to do just that, he may benefit from conferring with his brother Peyton. The elder Manning's Denver Broncos smacked the 49ers in the mouth during a blowout victory on October 19th.
“If you can run the ball decently and have good pass protection, that’s always helpful in being successful against any defense,” Eli said this week, via Mike Florio of NBC's Pro Football Talk. “[The Broncos] protected well. They ran the ball decently. And they were able to hit big plays in the passing game because the protection was solid. . . . That’s always a pretty good blueprint to have. It’s just a matter of if you can execute it."
If Eli and the NY Giants can execute in a similar fashion, don't be surprised if the Giants win this one going away.
