Eli Manning admits he feels stronger after the bye week, but the New York Giants quarterback shot down speculation he's played with a "dead arm" during the team's two-game losing streak. "I didn't think there was anything to it," Manning told Jorge Castillo of The Star-Ledger on Monday. "I still, in practices, thought I was throwing the ball well. I felt no fatigue. Obviously, sometimes during the course of the season, you may not realize it, but today (my) arm felt good. (I) threw some deep ones and didn't have to struggle to get it out there. It was just coming out well." Manning's decreased arm strength was noted by avid tape-watcher Ron Jaworski of ESPN. Eli has never been among the league's strong-armed passers, but an assortment of horrendous throws put him on the radar during New York's skid. It's not just a matter of arm strength. Manning's decision-making has been uneven in recent weeks. Source: NFL.com Attached Thumbnails
