The negatives for that game: Manning played like shit. Period. He should have picked apart that team all day long. Fundamental mistakes that should NOT happen especially at the QB position such as throwing the ball anywhere to get rid of it that results in INTS and FLAGS. That's ridiculous. He should have been benched when he threw up that duck to Plax while being double covered. That thing was in the air for a few years. Also, the special teams for punt/kick returns was not existant.
Who the hell said they would be 4-12? I never read that but I don't doubt it. They are a 8/8 or 9/7 team right now but could go on a streak given the next couple of teams they play before the BYE.

alot of people picked them to win 4 or 5 games and be last in the division. You want to bench a Qb over a INT? Lets bench Carson Palmer, Drew Brees, Philip Rivers, and Jay Cutler, seeing how they have all thrown more INTs than Eli has. QBs make mistakes, the good ones come back from them and win games. The bad ones let it get to them and cant get over it and it is in there head the whole game. The team is 3-2 and the 2 teams they lost to are still undefeated. I look at this season as a success so far. Im not saying Eli is a best QB in the league, or even top 10 but as long as they keep winning I can deal with it, When he costs them a game then ill be upset but he isnt making the big mistake right now. I can deal with a stupid first half pick every now and then, especially if he is going to come out and win the game like he has the last 3 weeks. 3 game winning streak, lets enjoy it.
