It appeared the Giants had a Sly way of jabbing at the Eagles on Sunday.

It sounded as if Eli Manning’s audibles had a Philadelphia slant, name-dropping references to one of The City of Brotherly Love’s most beloved characters.

Throughout the Giants-Eagles game at MetLife Stadium, Manning could be heard shouting “Rocky” and “Balboa” at the line of scrimmage, the first and last name of the fictional Cinderella who came out of the slums of Philadelphia to rise to a storied boxing career.

Using Sylvester Stallone as inspiration against the city that he inspired in the series of movies is an interesting choice for the Giants, who had a strange audible call two weeks ago, too. Although Manning denied it, it sounded as if he was screaming “Trump!” during the Giants’ London game.
