I've been saying this for awhile, but people have been looking at me like I've got three heads when I say it.Eli Manning, at the end of games, is as clutch as they come.
And it comes down to Eli, little Eli, with a shot to shut everybody up forever, to continue forward, unaware of how everyone else felt about him, with a chance to go down the field and be like Elway, or Aikman, or those guys.
And he does it.
And the defense, the brolic, the diesel, the studly, the massive, the nasty defense.
People are saying this is the biggest upset ever in the NFL?
I'm still watching the highlights, three hours later.
2:40-something to go, Eli needs a TD.
And he fucking does it.
And Plax catches it.
And the 4th down.
And The Throw to Tyree on 3rd and 5 to save the game.
Golly, Eli played a heckuva game, didn't he?
18-1*.
Keyshawn's calling Eli "The DreamKiller." That's good. I can get down with that.
How satisfying, to see Brady laid out like that, beaten and bruised?
