2004= 1 game
Past few few years Mannings clearly have more wins than losses

For the record, no team has ever played both Peyton and Eli Manning in the same season and split their record against the two; they've either beaten both Mannings, or lost to both Mannings. And though I don't think they rely heavily on each other's help, you know there's bound to be a couple of trade secrets here or there that they'll share, seeing as how they're family and all.

But, honestly, that's just making an excuse. Either way, both Mannings are elite QBs, and they're on good teams (though Indy's been struggling). They deserve to win the games that they do, the way they do.

Answering your question "Did Archie Manning Ever Play vs Baltimore?"
The answer is yes, and only once, in 1973 (Manning's 3rd year) at Memorial Stadium against the Baltimore Colts.
He went 18 for 33 for 257 yds with one TD and one INT, however the Saints lost to the Colts 14-10.

How can you say Eli Manning has "owned" us? I don't think he played a great game yesterday. His TD pass was not a good throw, the guy made a great catch. Plus, he had another pick taken away because Bannan was offsides and he didn't even affect the play. The only other Reg. season game against us, as was stated, he had a passer rating of 0.0. THAT is ownage.

The Giants played some great football but Eli had little part in it other then managing the football.

Eli didn't need to do much, that's why it was so important to stay close by shutting down the run and then bringing the heavy pass rush. Once we started pressuring him he was faltering quickly. If the Ravens game plan had worked Eli would have been forced to throw 30+ times and picks and mistakes would have followed. Credit to the Giants they dismantled our game plan with ferocious run attack.
