Eli Manning completed his first 11 passes Sunday against arguably the best defense in the NFL, and still he finished with a 62.1 percent completion rate.
Had Manning instead missed on each of his first 11 throws in a 20-15 loss to the Jaguars, odds are the Giants quarterback would have found a way to get his numbers back near 62.1 percent.
As his 15th season begins, Manning is who he is. Part of his identity is a career 59.8 percent passer, with nine seasons better than 60 percent and a career-high mark of 63.
