Manning Bowl III

Fanduel.com
It was hard to pick my Game of the Week. It came down to this and the Seahawks/49ers matchup. I had to go with this game just because all of the story lines. This is the 3rd time Eli and Peyton have met up in a real NFL game. There have been some great backyard football games that none of us have seen. Peyton is coming off one of his best performances. He threw for 7 TDs against the Ravens on the opening night of football. The Giants had some major problem last Sunday. They were so close to staging another comeback win against the Cowboys. Eli threw an INT that was returned for a TD in the final 2 minutes. That was just one of six turnovers the Giants had. New York picked up Brandon Jacobs this week after David Wilson had two fumbles last week. The Broncos have so many weapons on the outside. The giants secondary is going to have to be ready. Denver just has so many targets to throw to. The Giants home crowd should give them a boost, but Denver might just be too good.
