At this time last year, Giants quarterback Eli Manning was coming off a poor 2013 season and ankle surgery that limited his practice involvement while the Giants were installing a new offense with first-year coordinator Ben McAdoo.
It wasn’t an ideal way to learn a new system, but things wound up working out OK once the Giants got wide receiver Odell Beckham into the lineup. Manning completed a career-high 63.1 percent of his passes and threw 30 touchdowns against 14 interceptions as McAdoo’s scheme agreed with the quarterback and the rest of the personnel.
