ARLINGTON, Texas — We will know soon enough if the Giants were fooled by what their top decision-makers saw — or believe they saw — down the stretch of the 2018 season, as that impression set in motion who and what takes the field Sunday afternoon at AT&T Stadium.
Eli Manning is still around because the late scoring surge convinced general manager Dave Gettleman and head coach Pat Shurmur, with the offensive line finally stabilized, the old quarterback was still able to get his team in the end zone. The Giants last season averaged 27.4 points in their final eight games, and that includes a shutout loss to the Titans.
