If there’s one thing we’ve learned over the years about Eli Manning, it’s that he will never — ever — criticize his offensive line. Even if it’s warranted.
Manning has played behind lines good enough to win Super Bowls and bad enough to lead to coach firings. It was therefore not surprising that Manning would defend the men up front after a less than perfect — a far less than perfect — game in Sunday’s 20-15 season-opening loss to the Jaguars at MetLife Stadium.
“I thought the offensive line did a good job going against a good front,” Manning said.
