Statistics
Professional career
The San Diego Chargers originally held the right to vote for the first overall in the 2004 NFL Draft due to their 4-12 record in 2003. With Manning being the most coveted player in the draft, Chargers' intent was to set it all up first. However, Manning (repeated by his father) publicly stated that he would refuse to play for Chargers if compiled by them. The Chargers picked him with the first overall pick as the team had made a deal with the New York Giants, where the Giants would compile and then trade Philip Rivers and draft picks (used to pick Shawne Merriman midfielder and placekicker Nate Kaeding) Filler for Manning. He signed a six-year, $ 45 million contract with the New York Giants.
Manning was one of four quarterbacks taken in the first round of the 2004 NFL Draft along with Ben Roethlisberger, Philip Rivers, and J. P. Losman. Manning, Roethlisberger, and Rivers have all been selected to become Pro Bowl since becoming a starter. Until 2013, Roethlisberger and Manning did not produce a season with a losing record (although each had a season 8-8), and Roethlisberger and Manning each won two Super Bowls. They have been compared well with the 1983 Quarterback class, which includes the Hall of Fame quarterbacks And Marino, John Elway, and Jim Kelly.
season 2004: Year Rookie
Manning made his NFL debut in Week 1 against the Philadelphia Eagles. He came into the game towards the end of the fourth quarter with the help of Warner. He completed 31-17 3-of-9 losses for 66 yards. Manning started his first career in the regular season against the Atlanta Falcons at Giants Stadium on 21 November 2004. In his fourth start, against the Baltimore Ravens at M & T Bank on December 12, 2004, he ended the day with a passing 0.0 pass rating and was lowered in the second half and favored Kurt Warner, but remained a Giants starter until the end of the season. The Giants finished with a record of 6-10 and 1-6 in the game that started Manning.
2005 season: NFC East champion
After 2004, Warner left the Giants, and Manning was named as the starter for 2005. Manning led the Giants to a 2-0 record with victories against the Cardinals and Saints, before traveling to the West Coast for a test in San Diego. Chargers fans did not forget the humiliation, and on 25 September 2005 when Manning and the Giants made their first trip to San Diego for the game since that day, the crowd mocked Manning hard whenever he touched the ball. San Diego beat the Giants, 45-23, but Manning showed what was perhaps his most impressive performance in his young career, being 24-of-41 for 352 yards and two goals.
After his performance in San Diego, Manning returned home to throw nearly 300 yards and four career high goals against St. Louis Rams at Giants Stadium in a 44-24 romp. Two games later, he led a last-minute lead against the Denver Broncos to secure a 24-23 win for the Giants. Drive culminated in a two-yard touchdown to Amani Toomer with five seconds remaining. Two weeks later, Manning overcame a weak first half in San Francisco to help his team secure their first official road win of the season, 24-6. Despite his poor performance at home against Minnesota Vikings, throwing four interceptions, he again led his team back to tie the game in stoppage time before the Vikings triumphed in the final goal of the field.
Manning finished among the top five quarterbacks in both passing yards and a touchdown pass, while leading the third completed offense in the NFL in scoring with a total of 422 points. That was the most points the Giants scored in a season since 1963. The Giants won NFC East with an 11-5 record and advanced to the postseason as the # 4 seed. In the Wild Card Round against the Carolina Panthers, Manning was 10-of-18 for 113 yards and three interceptions in a 23-0 defeat.
2006 season
Manning's second full season reminiscent of his 2005 season. He started playing well and completed more than 65 percent of his operations through the first four games. However, he struggled in the second half of the season and his production was reduced towards the end of the regular season. After losing a difficult game to his brother Peyton and Colts on the opening day, Manning and Giants rebounded from a 24-7 fourth quarter deficit on the way to a 30-24 overtime victory over the Eagles division rivals in Week 2. Manning threw for a high 371 yard in victory with three goals including a match-winning bait to Plaxico Burress in extra time to get the NFC's Player of the Week. After a poor performance against Seattle next week, Manning and Giants responded by winning five straight games including wins over the Redskins, Cowboys, and Falcons to push their record to 6-2.
Following this winning streak, major injuries including one for the recipient Amani Toomer pushed Manning and Giants into a downward drop. Playing against the Chicago Bears, Manning started well, but the Giants offense slipped by the loss of his left hand over Luke Petitgout to a broken leg. Manning was held only 141 yards with two interception. Petigout's loss left a gaping hole in the remaining crucial positions, and Manning could not repeat his first half of success. Manning struggled next week in Jacksonville and the week after that, costly interception helped to culminate a major collapse in Tennessee, with the Giants seeing 21 points leading the fourth quarter just yawning. Manning improved the following week, throwing for 270 yards and two goals, but the Giants lost again. Finally regaining momentum, Manning made three goals in a win at the Carolina, but then he failed in the last three games. He threw two interceptions against the Eagles and counted just 73 yards past the game against Saints. Although the Giants struggled back into the next 8-8 weeks in Washington, Manning finished just 12 out of 26 bait for 101 yards and one goal. The Giants qualify for the postseason as # 6-seed and meet the Eagles. Although he was significantly better off in this game than the 2005 playoffs against the Carolina Panthers, finishing 16 of 27 passes and two goals, the Giants lost on a second last field goal by the Eagles.
For this year, Manning threw for 3,244 yards, 24 goals, and 18 interceptions. He finished 57.7 percent of his bait, five points from 2005, but he struggled again in the second half of the season. Manning ended the season with a 77.0 quarterback efficiency rating (18th in the league) with 6.2 meters per effort.
season 2007: Super Bowl champion
Manning trained in Meadowlands with offensive coordinator Kevin Gilbride and new quarterback coach Chris Palmer before the 2007 regular season. For the first time, Plaxico Burress and Jeremy Shockey practiced off-season with Manning to perfect their time and chemistry rather than practicing alone in Miami as they did in previous years.
Regular season
Manning opened the 2007 season with extraordinary personal performance against the Dallas Cowboys, finishing 28 of 41 passing attempts to 312 yards, four goals, and interception, but suffered a shoulder sprain and was removed from the game at the end of the second half. Although he played against Green Bay in the second week while throwing for 211 yards with one goal, the Giants defense was performing poorly again and the team went down to 0-2 with Green Bay winning 35-13. In the third week, Manning got the victory coming from behind as the Giants' defense improved, throwing a shutout in the second half and stopping the Washington Redskins in fourth and goal, winning the match 24-17. The Giants defense then closed the Philadelphia Eagles with an NFL record-tying 12 sacks, holding the Eagles offense to a single field goal. The Giants won by 16-3. The following week, Manning overcame a dismal first half to score two goals in the second half in a 35-24 victory over their city rival, the New York Jets.
After two consecutive wins at home, Manning and Giants earned their fourth straight win with a 31-10 Atlanta Falcons defeat at Georgia Dome on Monday Night Football. Manning performed well, completing 27 of 39 passes for 303 yards along with a pair of touchdowns while giving two interception. Behind the dominant defense effort, the Giants increased to 5-2 next week with a 33-15 win over the San Francisco 49ers. Manning played well again, throwing two goals in that effort. On the eighth week of the season, the Giants played a street match against the Miami Dolphins on October 28, 2007, at London's Wembley Stadium. Manning only threw 59 yards in the rain and mud, but he only scored the only Giants goal on 10 yards. This goal is the first in a regular NFL season match played outside North America. The Giants beat the Dolphins, 13-10, taking the Giants to a 6-2 record at the mid point of the 2007 season. After losing to their division rivals at the Dallas Cowboys in the 9th week, New York Giants owner John Mara openly questioned Manning's ability to lead the New York Giants in 2007, but more importantly in the future:
The only thing we evaluated was 'Can we win with this guy?' It's the only one. When we talk about any player at the end of the season, No.1 question is 'Will he help us win?' And to take it one step further, 'Can we win the championship with this guy?'
After a week of criticism in New York media and was shown by Tony Romo, Manning had a winning back against their wildcard conference contenders Detroit Lions. Manning managed to throw the ball as far as 283 yards and one goal but most importantly, there is no interception in a critical road game.
The following week in a 41-17 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, Manning threw four interceptions and three of them back for touchdown. He continued to fight until the final game of the season, against 15-0 New England Patriots. With a safe playoff spot, the Giants can rest their starters for the playoffs, but they instead choose to stay on and try to stop New England's quest for an unbeaten regular season. The Giants lost 38-35, with Manning finishing 22 of 32 passes for 252 yards, with four goals and one interception.
Playoff 2007
The Giants entered the playoffs as the # 5 seed. On January 6, 2008, Manning went 20-of-27 to 185 yards playing on the road against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. The Underdog Giants won 24-14, and Manning had two passing goals.
On January 13, 2008, Manning led the Giants to a stunning victory over the highly favored Dallas Cowboys, the number one seed in the NFC. For the third game in a row, Manning played well, finishing 12 of 18 passes for 163 yards and two goals without interception. The Giants are the first team to beat the NFC number one seed in the division since the start of the 12-team format in 1990. This victory secured the NFC Championship spot against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday, January 20, 2008. In the NFC Championship, the Giants beat the Packers at overtime, with a score of 23-20. A dramatic win makes Manning and Giants travel to Super Bowl XLII. It was the first Super Bowl appearance for the New York Giants since Super Bowl XXXV in 2001, and their first Super Bowl win since Super Bowl XXV.
Super Bowl XLII
In front of a record-setting American television audiences and at the end of fourth quarter powered by Manning, the Giants beat 12.5 point-favored, unbeaten New England Patriots 17-14.
Manning takes a snap, goes back to throw, under pressure, avoids the rush and he'll... fight from it, still fight from it, now throw it deep into the field, wide open Tyree's... MAKE A CATCHING! IN THE 24-YARD LINE! What is Manning doing!
Trailing 14-10 with 2:42 left, Manning led the Giants 83 yards on the winning touchdown drive. In the 3rd and 5th minutes in the Giant 44 yard line, Manning connected with David Tyree in a drama where he avoided some close sacks and Tyree caught the ball from his helmet for a big profit. Four plays later, Plaxico Burress caught a 13-yard touchdown pass with just 35 seconds left to win margin. Manning became only the second quarterback in NFL history to dump two fourth-quarter touchdowns in the Super Bowl (Joe Montana being the first). Manning also became the first quarterback to throw a last-minute winner in the NFL title game (including the pre-Super Bowl era) when a goalkeeper would not at least tie the match. After the Giants' monumental victory, Manning and the coaching staff spoke briefly with President George W. Bush.
Manning was named the Super Bowl XLII Most Valuable Player. He and his brother Peyton are the only combination of siblings to play in quarterbacks in the Super Bowl and a set of brothers to win the Super Bowl MVP, doing so in subsequent years.
To win the Super Bowl MVP, he was given his choice for the 2008 Cadillac model, and Manning chose the Escalade Hybrid. Wednesday after Super Bowl he appeared on the Late Show with David Letterman .

In August 2011, Manning produced a mild controversy in sports media during a radio interview on The Michael Kay Show. When asked by host Michael Kay whether he is the elite "Top 10, Top 5" quarterback in the same class as Tom Brady, he replied:
I consider myself in that class. Tom Brady is a great quarterback... I think now he's grown and getting better every year and that's what I'm trying to do. I hope the next seven years of my days as a quarterback is the best.
Manning received criticism over the quote for trying to improve his own status and skills, with critics pointing out his inconsistent statistics, including his 25 interceptions in the previous season, as evidence contrary to his claim. However, Manning also received support for his comments from Giants coach Tom Coughlin and teammates such as wide receiver Hakeem Nicks. Later in the season, Dallas Cowboys defense coordinator Rob Ryan commented on the quote, agreeing with Manning that he was an elite quarterback "for sure."
Regular season
The Giants opened the 2011 season with a slow start, losing to rivals Washington Redskins 14-28 in an emotional game for both fanbase on the 10th anniversary of the September 11 attacks. Manning completed 18 of 32 passes for 268 yards but threw an expensive interception in the third quarter for linebacker Ryan Kerrigan, who returned him for a touchdown and swung the momentum of the game.

During this time, Manning improved, throwing for eight goals and one interception.
After a 6-2 start, including a recent 24-20 minute comeback by Manning over the New England Patriots that evoked comparisons to the Super Bowl XLII, the Giants entered a tight schedule of their schedule, facing off against the San Francisco 49ers, the New Orleans Saints, and Green Bay Packers, NFC champions West, South and North respectively.

In the last regular season game against the Cowboys, Manning threw for 346 yards and three goals, giving the Giants victory, the Eastern NFC title, and the playoff spot for the first time in three years. He earned a Pro Bowl nomination for his performance in the 2011 season.
Playoff 2011
The Giants entered the postseason 2011 as an underdog, with the lowest winning record of any NFC team. However, Manning and his team will once again show their endurance and endurance at the end of the year. The first Giants easily beat Atlanta Falcons 24-2 in the Wild Card round and then shocked the Super Bowl champions and top seed Green Bay Packers to advance to the NFC Championship Game. In the win, Manning completed 21 of 33 attempts and threw three goals and one interception. The following week, the Giants will also avenge their defeat in the regular season to the San Francisco 49ers with a dramatic 20-17 win in the NFC Championship game.

Super Bowl XLVI
In the most watched program in US television history, Manning once again made the Giants win an annoyed over 2½ points favored by Patriots 21-17, the second Super Bowl and fourth overall victory for the franchise.
I shouted to [Bradshaw], "Do not score, do not score," Manning said. "He tried to stop, but he fell into the final zone."
While trailing the Patriots 15-17 in stoppage time, Manning led the Giants 88 yards down the field to a touchdown that many observers described as "coincidental." With just over a minute remaining time in the game, the Giants are called running runs and Manning handed the ball to Ahmad Bradshaw in hopes of stopping the goal line and forcing the Patriots to use their last time out, thus allowing the Giants to run out of time. The Patriots, in turn, did not try to tackle Bradshaw in his escape, and he then fell over the goal line despite trying to stop. However, the remaining time is not enough for Patriots quarterback Tom Brady to lead the comeback and the Giants hold the lead to win. Manning was again named the Most Valuable Player of the Super Bowl XLVI, becoming the third consecutive quarterback to win the award. The Giants also became the first team with less than ten wins in 16 regular season games to win the Super Bowl. Manning also became the first quarterback in NFL history to throw as far as 4,900 yards and win the Super Bowl in the same season.

season 2012
The Giants will experience a disappointing season following the Super Bowl in 2011.

He finished the season with 26 goals, 15 interceptions, and 3,948 passing yards. Although the Giants did not qualify for the playoffs with the 9-7 season, Manning was elected to the third Pro Bowl as a second alternative.
2013 season
Manning led the Giants to start the season with a 0-6 record, the worst regular season since 1976. He threw 12 interception in his first five games. Manning fell to 0-3 against his brother, Peyton in a 41-23 Sunday defeat to the Denver Broncos. He was 28 from 39 to 362 meters, but was intercepted four times.
