Does Eli Manning believe Saquon Barkley will close gap between Giants and Super Bowl champion Eagles?

UNION -- Giants quarterback Eli Manning finds himself in a bit of an unprecedented situation heading into the 2018 NFL season.

For the first time in Manning's 14-year career, the Vince Lombardi Trophy resides in the NFC East, but outside of East Rutherford, after the Eagles knocked off Tom Brady and the New England Patriots 41-33 in Super Bowl LII.

The Eagles' first Super Bowl championship poured salt in the wound of a Giants team that limped to a 3-13 finish to a 2017 season that was simultaneously besieged by injuries and turmoil.
