It’s unfair to measure an athlete’s career by such a small segment, but in Eli Manning’s case it fits. To understand why Giants fans took to Eli, all you needed was to be there for the 70 days connecting Nov. 25, 2007, and Feb. 3, 2008.
Seventy days that defined who Eli Manning was as a quarterback: the good and the bad, the light and the dark, triumph and turmoil, and everything in between. Redemption and resurrection. It was all there. All in those 70 days.
On Nov. 25, 2007, Manning had the worst day of his professional career.
