How the Cowboys came after Eli Manning on his 22 pass drops: 4-man pressure: 11 of 22 snaps (9/2) MANNING NUMBERS WHAT IT MEANT: Well, for one thing, it means that Manning’s transformation into a quarterback who reads pressure well is continuing. In the playoffs, Manning is 15-of-16 for 130 yards and two touchdowns (140.1 rating) when facing five or more rushers, though he has taken three sacks. We’ll have much, much more on this in Tale of the Tape, but too often it seemed like the rush packages were less imaginative than they had been during the regular season, and this allowed Manning to react quickly to everything that was thrown at him, and go underneath to receivers facing soft coverage. |

So in the second half he only had 7 attempts, gained only 33 yards, and got sacked twice.
Hey, a win is a win, but other than the 50 second TD drive to close out the first half Eli didn't impress me at all (...and even that was more Reeves than Manning).

Much much more? Good grief! Let the dust settle on this past year, and come back after April with something worth talking about, like the draft.
