Eli Manning Football Cards

About Eli Manning

Oh man, Eli Manning is one of those quarterbacks who just had a knack for the big moment, especially with the Giants. The guy beat Tom Brady and the Patriots twice in Super Bowls, including that incredible helmet catch game that stopped the perfect season. Collectors love him because he's got that clutch factor and those championship rings, plus he was the face of the Giants for over a decade. His cards don't have that rookie premium since he doesn't have true rookie cards, but look for his early parallels and numbered cards from his championship seasons, those tend to hold their value really well.

In his first full season in the NFL, Manning showed the poise and leadership that made him the first overall pick in the 2004 NFL Draft. The younger brother of Peyton Manning, Eli has the arm strength and accuracy to be a top quarterback for years to come. Manning was the MVP of Super Bowl XLII after leading the Giants to an upset victory over the previously undefeated New England Patriots.

Dad’s Take on Eli Manning

Look at this goofball holding the ball like he's about to ask someone to prom! That dopey expression and careful little grip – no wonder he lucked into beating Brady twice, the guy looks like he'd apologize for throwing a touchdown pass. Standing there all proper in his pristine uniform like he's posing for his mom's Christmas card instead of playing professional football!
