Eli Manning Says He Doesn't Have a Tired Arm, and More NFC East News

Eli Manning hasn't been himself for over a month now, which has led some experts to believe he's suffering from a "tired arm." That would be concerning, because after this week, the New York Giants' franchise quarterback won't be getting another break.

But Manning insists that's not the case. Unfortunately, though, he can't offer much of an explanation for his lack of effectiveness.

"I don't think so," he said Sunday when asked if his arm is tired, according to Jenny Vrentas of the Newark Star-Ledger. "I feel like I'm making the throws, and I don't feel like it's tired."

But there's evidence, on tape and all, that he isn't, in fact, making the throws. His receivers and his pass protectors haven't been doing him a lot of favors, but Manning simply hasn't been accurate enough. And if that doesn't change, the Giants could be in a lot of trouble.
