Earlier tonight, former Giants WR great Amani Toomer told NBC SportsTalk that Eli Manning won his first super bowl without having to deal with Jeremy Shockey. He said Jeremy Shockey would pressure Eli Manning of giving him the football a lot and clearly Eli Manning looked relaxed when he was hurt in the 2007 season. I agree with what Amani Toomer has said about Jeremy Shockey of not being in Eli's face once Eli tooked the Giants to a super bowl win four seasons ago. imagined if they still had an healthy Jeremy Shockey and Tiki Barber on the team that very season. they would've not won the super bowl or made it. Those two guys were a complete distraction in the locker room and the Giants benifited when those two guys were gone.

Ok I’ll admit to being one of the (many) people who laughed when Eli Manning said that he considered himself as a quarterback in the same class as the elites of the game. At the time you really had to admire the guy’s confidence in his ability but he had never really been able to shake the tag of “Peyton’s kid brother” and all the connotations that go with that label.
