The 38-year-old quarterback talks

about his toughest annual road game."As NFL team owners Nick Foles Jersey , general managers and head coaches met with reporters at the annual meetings this week, Giants quarterback Eli Manning was answering his own set of questions as part of a panel discussion for the NYIT Center for Sports Medicine/Head Injury Association.Along with naming the most gifted athlete he’s ever played with (Odell Beckham Jr.), the NFL veteran talked about the hardest hit he’d ever taken, and remembered the first game of his career on the bad end of a tackle by Eagles’ Jerome McDougle in 2004.According to Newsday, Manning quipped:Manning also named Philadelphia as his toughest road games each season http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-deandre-carter-jersey , and noted that it’s a different kind of environment... from fans of all ages.The quarterback has had plenty of experience playing the Eagles on the road, and has only won six matchups in Philly. His overall record against his NFC East rival isn’t much better, collectively going 10-20 during his 15 year career.Eagles fans might get a bad rep, but for players suiting up for the home team, they create one of the best home-field advantage environments in the NFL. And Womens Nigel Bradham Jersey , they aren’t supposed to make things comfortable for the opponent, let alone a division foe. It’s just never going to happen.So, whether 9-year-olds are flipping the bird to opponents or yelling obscenities from the stands, they’re showing support for the home team, and that’s all that really matters.Despite being 38 years old Brandon Brooks Jersey , Manning said he was still passionate about the game, and Giants GM Dave Gettleman doesn’t seem to be trying to usher in any kind of new era in New York — at least, not anytime soon. Which means the Eagles should still get to see Eli a couple times a year, and he’ll get at least one more chance to be blasted by kids in Philly. Carson Wentz will be the Eagles’ starting quarterback this season. Nick Foles will be elsewhere. So who will back Wentz up?Eagles General Manager Howie Roseman said on that he hasn’t decided yet: Nate Sudfeld has a chance to earn that job, but the Eagles are also going to look at the quarterback market and see who they can bring in.“Nate’s a guy that when he signed he had an opportunity to learn behind Carson and Nick and he’s made incredible progress as our scout team quarterback http://www.eagleslockerroom.com/authentic-malik-jackson-jersey , as someone who has been the backup when Carson got hurt and we didn’t bring back someone else,” Roseman said. “But this is also a position we continue to invest in. We’ve got great quarterback teachers. It would be a disservice to our franchise if we didn’t continue to look at every quarterback option as well.”Wentz and Sudfeld are the only two quarterbacks on the Eagles’ roster once Foles officially becomes a free agent on March 13, so Philadelphia will certainly add one or two quarterbacks to be there in the offseason. Whether one of them can beat out Sudfeld to back up Wentz remains to be seen, but given Wentz’s injury history it’s fair to assume that the Eagles want someone they can count on to be the No. 2 quarterback on the depth chart.
