Giants Qb Eli Manning, Rams Dt Aaron Donald & Cardinals K
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE 12/16/15 http://twitter.com/nfl345 GIANTS QB ELI MANNING, RAMS DT AARON DONALD & CARDINALS K CHANDLER CATANZARO NAMED NFC PLAYERS OF WEEK 14 Quarterback ELI MANNING of the New York Giants, defensive tackle AARON DONALD of the St. Louis Rams and kicker CHANDLER CATANZARO of the Arizona Cardinals are the NFC Offensive, Defensive and Special Teams Players of the Week for games played the 14th week of the 2015 season (December 10, 13-14), the NFL announced today. OFFENSE: QB ELI MANNING, NEW YORK GIANTS Manning completed 27 of 31 passes (career-high 87.1 percent) for 337 yards with four touchdowns and no interceptions for a career-best 151.5 passer rating in the Giants’ 31-24 win at Miami. Manning’s 87.1 completion percentage is the highest by a Giants quarterback in a regular-season game (minimum 20 attempts) and the second-best mark in franchise history behind PHIL SIMMS’ 88.0 completion percentage (22 of 25) in Super Bowl XXI. He is the first Giants quarterback to have a passer rating of at least 150 in a game since 2002 (KERRY COLLINS, 158.3 on December 22). Manning threw touchdown passes to ODELL BECKHAM JR. (84 and six yards), RUEBEN RANDLE (six yards) and WILL TYE (five yards). Manning’s 84-yard touchdown pass to Beckham with 11:13 remaining in the fourth quarter broke a 24-24 tie and proved to be the game-winning score. He has six touchdown passes of at least 50 yards this season, the most in the NFL. -
Seton Hall Sports Poll PUBLIC SAYS OBAMA a BETTER SPORTSMAN
Seton Hall Sports Poll PUBLIC SAYS OBAMA A BETTER SPORTSMAN, WOULD BE A BETTER FOOTBALL COACH THAN ROMNEY Independent Voters Also Favor President on Both Questions S. Orange, NJ, September 28, 2012 – President Obama is seen as showing better sportsmanship than his opponent Mitt Romney, according to a poll conducted this week by the Seton Hall Sports Poll. Asked “regardless of whom you support, which candidate do you think shows better sportsmanship,” 53% said Obama, 29% said Romney, and 18% had no opinion. And while partisan politics may have affected that reading, the results from respondents who identified themselves as independent may be more telling: 58% said Obama showed better sportsmanship, 28% Romney, and 14% had no opinion. The poll was conducted among 688 randomly selected people across the country, including people on cell phones, of whom 487 said they followed sports at least somewhat. The poll has a margin of error of 3.8%; 4.5% for sports fans. The poll also found that to the question “which candidate do you think would make a better football coach,” Obama drew 48% to Romney’s 30%, and a wider margin among independents, 52% - 31%. Asked which party has more of the “win at all costs” attitude commonly associated with sports, 43% said Republicans, 36% Democrats, and among independents it was 48% to 38% for the Republicans. (The margin of error for independent voters was 5.9%). “One might expect partisan responses to these questions, so the results among independents is especially telling,” noted Rick Gentile, director of the poll, which is conducted by the Sharkey Institute. -

The Prall Press
January/February 2012 Volume 2, Issue 4 The Prall Press Our Super Bowl Inside this issue: Predictions: You heard it here first! By the Prall Press Sports Reporters All of us may see it differently, but we can agree on one thing: the New York Giants are going all the way this year. Read on to see how we think Super Bowl XLVI will play out. I predict…the Giants will beat the New England Patriots in overtime. Even though I usually root for the Jets, I would rather see a New York team win the Super Bowl. The Giants had to work hard to get to the Super Bowl. They had to get through the Dallas Cowboys and then the Green Bay Packers. Now they face the Patriots in Super Bowl XLVI. In Super Bowl XLII in 2008, the Giants beat the Patriots 17 to 14. (The Giants scored a touchdown in the last 35 seconds to win the game.) —Joaquin Solano I predict…..Eli Manning and the Giants will defeat Tom Brady and the Patriots. I say the Giants will win the Super Bowl by a field Goal in the 4th quarter. The MVP of the Giants will be either Hakeem Nicks, Victor Cruz, or Kenny Phillips. I think it will be a close game, but the Giants will triumph. The score will be Giants 31, Patriots 28. For big Giants fans like me, this will be a special chance to watch the Giants win a Super Prall Intermediate Bowl! —Denzel Green School Ms. Tracey Kornish, I predict…..the NY Giants will win. -
