Eli: Still The Saddest Manning

Timothy BurkeTimothy Burke|published: Mon 25th November, 19:27 2013

After last night's disaster in Foxboro in which the Broncos blew a 24-point lead, you'd be right to expect Peyton Manning to be a bit down. But, as always, he's the chipper member of the family—as little bro Eli is once again letting his face tell a story of desperation and dysphoria.

During a game that featured old man outrage (outrage that extended to the postgame, in which Giants coach Tom Coughlin complained about his own team's trash-talking) all eyes were, once again, on Eli. Those doleful eyes. That plaintive expression. Fox captured it all, and we did what we do with it.
