Eli Manning can't throw away his best shot at a third Super Bowl | Politi

EAST RUTHERFORD -- Eli Manning isn't much of a numbers guy, so the big round milestone that is staring him in the face on Sunday night -- his 200th regular-season start -- was met with a predictable shrug last week.

"It's the first game of the season," he said. "That's the way I'm looking at it, and I want to go out there and try to get a win."

Fair enough. But a few different numbers are hanging over the Giants quarterback as he starts his 14th NFL season at AT&T Stadium against the Dallas Cowboys, and none of them exactly bode well for a team that has embraced its high expectations heading into this season.
