5. Eli Manning Will Lead League In Passing Yards
I think the New York Giants will boast the top passing attack in the NFL next season. It isn’t a very far fetched idea, last year they had a top ten aerial assault despite losing Victor Cruz for much of the season. In 2015 no quarterback will outshine Eli Manning, who has more weapons around him than anyone.
In 2014 Manning threw for 4,410 yards and 30 touchdowns. It felt like the start of something special with new offensive coordinator, Ben McAdoo calling the shots. In his second year in the offense, with a more experienced Odell Beckham Jr. and a healthy Victor Cruz at his service no passer will outshine Manning.
The Giants will be one of the most efficient and effective offenses. Shane Vereen will be a complimentary piece of the passing game. With top weapons and a dramatically improved offensive line the Giants will be hard to get off the field. Third downs are less daunting when you can protect the passer and you have great options for Manning to throw to all over the field.
