Manning is confident that the Giants’ receivers will be able to replace the departed Plaxico Burress and Amani Toomer. “I think we are in a good spot right now,” quarterback Eli Manning said Friday, looking back on the play of the wideouts in the preseason. “I think the guys are confident in their abilities.”

Impacts: The Giants’ offense looked very good on its first three series, with Manning running the first drive and David Carr handling the last two. The three drives lasted a total of 12 plays and resulted in touchdown passes of 23 and 12 yards to Sinorice Moss, and a 64-yard catch and run by first-round draft pick Hakeem Nicks, who has scored three touchdowns in the last two games.
