'Super' Mann Does It Again!
Fourth Quarter Heroics Define Manning's Greatness
In 2008, Eli Manning and David Tyree combined on a play for the ages. You do it once and people will say it was a lucky play. Perhaps it was. Sometimes it's better to be lucky than good. You do it twice, against the same team in the Super Bowl no less, and people will say it 's almost expected. That's how much Eli Manning has defined his level of play. In this year's Super Bowl, Eli made a perfect throw to Mario Manningham who did a superb job of planting his feet to give the Giants a first down and the eventual game-winning touchdown. On Football's biggest stage, Eli has twice made fourth quarter plays that helped his team win two Super Bowls in four years. He has defined his own legacy and any comparison with his brother Peyton is undeserved.
