Yawn. It wasn’t exactly a thrilling opener — no points were scored in the second half — but the New York Giants began defense of their Super Bowl crown with a 16-7 win over the Washington Redskins.
The win did continue a streak in the NFL — no defending champion has lost its season opener since the 1999 Denver Broncos (the year after John Elway retired).

I like Eli Manning more and more. I wish they’d stop showing his Dad 20 times a game when he’s in the stands, but I am coming to really like this guy. He makes gutty plays and I like him in interviews. OMG, am I cheering for a Manning????
