There are no do-overs, of course, but you could not blame Eli Manning one bit for the wistful sentiment he shared the day after the most prolific game in his career somehow turned sour and rotten and ultimately proved to be a wasteful afternoon.
“You go to overtime, you never know how it ends up,’’ Manning said Monday.
The Giants could not get it to overtime, not even after putting 49 points on the board — enough to win every previous game in the 91-year history of the franchise, but not this one.
