We couldn't get anything going. We couldn't get in a rhythm. We couldn't convert any third downs. We couldn't take advantage of any opportunities. We'd make mental mistakes, either by me or someone else. You can't beat a good team like that.
More Quotes from Eli Manning:
I still consider New Orleans as my home, even though I don't have a house there. During the off-season, I stay with my parents. I can't imagine New Orleans not being rebuilt, being the same way it was.Eli Manning
It's fun when you go out there and things are clicking. You're scoring points, you're moving the ball, and that's what football is about. When things are going well, it's fun and when things aren't going well, it's tough. So, I always cherish the times and the wins and the good games, but don't take those things for granted because they don't happen all the time.
Eli Manning
Giving us three turnovers in the first half and only getting six points -- we had to take better advantage of our opportunities, ... We didn't feel like Dallas was doing anything special to stop us. We felt like we were shooting ourselves in the foot with our mistakes. . . . Our defense stepped up, but our offense didn't make the plays.

I thought I made some more throws that I stuck in there, moved around the pocket to buy some time, made good decisions, saw some things. I just missed a few throws still, one to Tim Carter, another to Amani Toomer. Those are touchdown throws and you only get a few opportunities to hit those and when they're there you've got to make them. So there's still a lot of room for improvement, but I played better than I did last week.
Eli Manning
After the first three quarters, you have a feel for what a team is doing, ... It seems like once we get into the fourth quarter, we realize we've got to step up and make the plays.

It takes a while for those guys, always, to find a camaraderie and find a common step among them,
