If you have Eli Manning as your No. 1 quarterback, start him with confidence today.

A friend at the Giants game told me minutes ago by phone Manning came out for warmups and had no problem throwing or moving around. He also did not show a limp when we walked.

Manning should have a field day against the Raiders with huge production numbers. I'd be surprised if he didn't throw for 300-plus yards and 2-3 TDs.
