New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning has no plans to dwell on what happened in Week 1. Playing in New York, Manning has shown an uncanny ability to never let the media get to him, and this week was no different.

Manning had no comment on the New York Post's controversial photo-shopped image of him, because he had never taken the time to look for it.

Manning is ready to put last week behind him and everything that went with it. The Giants have an opportunity to silence the doubters by coming away with a victory against a tough Atlanta Falcons squad that opened the season with a win. Manning expects the fans to provide a little extra this Sunday.
