Vinatieri missed 2 FG's and a typically short kickoff led to a TD return. he must win

Out of the games I saw today, that would be my choice. Sounds crazy to say it, but Manning didn't play that horribly in spite of the six INTs.

Breaking down Manning's INTs:

The one by Phillips was an outstanding defensive play. When a DE tips and interecpts a smoke screen there isn't much to say. He earned that one.

One of the the INTs by Cromartie was an incrdible play by him, another was heavily influenced by Reggie Wayne quitting on the pattern.

The one by Hart was a meaningless heave at the end of the game.

It wasn't one of Manning better days but he definitely wasn't the reason they lost.
