Depends on if Jacobs is hurt. If he is, things change.
Check the numbers; he gets hurt Jabobs one of the NFL's best backs steps in and takes over, just as he had a better SB than Jacobs. Not just the numbers, either.
The only frustrating thing are the stupid, out of the blue mistakes Manning makes from time to time, like the INT at the end of the half.
Most of the mistakes are gone, once Barber and Shockey were out of the mix and he settled in to running the show without distractions.
Last year's SB it looked like a one-time thing but now even if NE had Brady NE would still be the underdog. NE will have to get better to be in the mix.
