Brett Favre and co-host Bruce Murray spent a good chunk of the

Hall of Fame quarterback’s Wednesday SiriusXM Radio show discussing New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning’s struggles this season as his team has opened 1-3. And Color Rush Landon Collins Jersey , not surprisingly, Favre believes the problems stem primarily from the lack of a quality, pass-protecting offensive line.Favre, who has seen just one Giants game this season — Week 2’s 20-13 loss to the Dallas Cowboys — said that the line “couldn’t protect at all.” And he seemed surprised that this has been an ongoing problem in New York, given the Giants have known what type of quarterback Manning is since 2004:Murray asked Favre if he’s been in a similar situation in his career, where a lack of offensive line protection left him feeling “gun shy,” to which Favre responded, “absolutely.” And speaking on his own experience Youth Sterling Shepard Jersey , Favre provided what could be a glimpse into Manning’s thought process this season: “I think guys that are really, really, true competitors and have played a long time have a tendency when things go, if they go bad, that you try to do too much.” However, Favre considers such a tendency “a good quality... yes, that gets you in trouble, and then more criticism falls upon you Alec Ogletree Jersey ,” but that long-term starters like Manning do begin to “try to do too much when [games] are not going as well as you hoped.”Favre also made it clear that Manning’s time hasn’t passed, saying that, “I think given good protection, I think we’ve seen an Eli [who] we’ve known to be there at the end. I think that’s still there. And I don’t see skills diminishing, I see an offensive line struggling to protect him right now. And if they can figure that out, I think you’ll see the Eli that we’ve know for so long.”Murray also asked Favre about his experiences with self-doubt and whether those same feelings could creep into Manning’s mind should the Giants as a whole not improve as the season wears on. While Favre was clear that he “can only assume,” what’s going through Manning’s head, but in his experience he did doubt himself. “‘Do I still have it? Do people still believe in me? Is it my fault? What else can I do? What else should I do?’ All those thoughts crossed my mind 4Dalvin Tomlinson Jersey ,” said Favre, who believes such thoughts are inevitable. “If you play long enough, you know the tides will turn and you will question [yourself.] I would think that any player that’s played a really long time, as long as Eli... has been around long enough [and] has had some adversity, questions whether or not they still have it.”Evan Engram injury: Tight end “week to week” with MCL sprain New York Giants tight end Evan Engram reportedly suffered a sprained MCL on Sunday against the Houston Texans. Per Adam Schefter, he will be considered “week to week.”Art Stapleton reported that the MRI found “no significant tears” in Engram’s right knee and that “4-6 weeks is the most accurate timetable.”The second-year tight end is a key part of the Giants’ offense, as his size, speed and route-running ability make him a matchup problem for defenses keying on Odell Beckham Jr. and Saquon Barkley.Without Engram Eli Manning Jersey , the remaining tight ends on the roster are Rhett Ellison and Scott Simonson. Ellison is a reliable pass catcher and had a 16-yard touchdown catch Sunday, but is still a better blocker than receiver. Simonson is also considered a blocking tight end.The Giants might be forced to add another tight end to the roster, unless they believe fullback Elijhaa Penny can fill that role. Penny said last week he is familiar with the tight end role, having done it some with the Arizona Cardinals.
