New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning threw two touchdowns to highlight his day during a Week 5 30-20 win over the Atlanta Falcons. He completed 19 of 30 passes for 200 yards and didn't throw an interception.
Eli Manning continues to shine as a fantasy quarterback
The adjustment period is over for Eli Manning. We break down the fantasy implications.


The offensive line gave him all day to throw and the Giants scored at least 30 points for the third consecutive week. Their offense was a disaster for the entire preseason and in the first two weeks of the regular season, but they are finally healthy and are taking care of the ball.
Manning also had a new target, as rookie Odell Beckham Jr. made his NFL debut. The two connected for a score and the quarterback targeted the rookie five times. Manning’s weapons are suddenly among the best in the NFC.
Fantasy impact: It wasn't a massive game, but hitting the 200-yard mark and scoring twice is still a solid day. His schedule sets up very nicely. Next week the Giants face the Eagles in Philadelphia and then they'll visit the Cowboys in Week 7, before they have a bye in Week 8 and get the Colts at home in Week 9. Eli should be a QB1 over that span.
