Eli's Coming

Eli Manning wouldn't be born for another 12 years when Three Dog Night sang "Eli's Coming" to the top of the Billboard charts - but if his last two games are any indication, Eli Manning may be #1 himself soon.

It's clear that Eli Manning is beginning to find his way - and get comfortable in his role as the Giants' main man. It is also easy to see that the Giants are now finally comfortable with Eli at the helm.

Manning has thrown 9 TD's with only 1 INT in four games this season. In nine games last year, Eli had 6 TD's and 9 INTs. His quarterback rating is up over 42 points.

The Giants are sure to have success this year if Manning continues to play at this season's level - and that means good fantasy numbers for Burress, Barber, and Shockey.
