NEW YORK (WFAN) — Eli Manning sees 2013 as just one of those years.

The Giants’ postseason hopes took a major hit with Sunday’s 24-21 loss to Dallas. Now at 4-7, Big Blue likely needs to win out to have a shot.

After winning four straight games to climb back into the NFC East race, the Giants seemed to dominate stretches of Sunday’s game, but for whatever reason couldn’t seize control on the scoreboard. Manning told WFAN’s Mike Francesa on Monday the game was sort of a microcosm of their season.

“It was one of those games where you go into halftime and you feel like you dominated the first half, really, but you have nothing to show for it,” said Manning, who finished 16-of-30 for 174 yards and two touchdowns in defeat.
