– That number leads the NFL. Tied for second are Matt Schaub — who’s on the hot seat in Houston — and Carson Palmer with nine.
– He’s on pace for 40 interceptions, 15 more than his career high set in 2010. George Blanda holds the single-season record with 42 in 1962. Vinny Testaverde is No. 2 with 35 in 1988.
Even the quarterback,
who said on WFAN radio Monday that he didn’t think he was playing “lousy” football, seems ready to admit he’s hurting the Giants in a big way.
“It’s frustrating not winning,” a distraught Manning said after
the 27-21 loss to the Bears, who locked the game up with an interception in the fourth quarter. “And it’s frustrating because I don’t feel like I’m doing my part to get this team some wins and some chances. That’s the frustrating part. I feel like our guys are fighting hard. Guys are doing their parts, and I need to start doing mine.”
