It was noticeable that Eli Manning attempted to throw the ball down the field more often against the Colts than he has in any game this season. This was not the result of trying to please general manager Jerry Reese, who said he'd like to see more aggressiveness.
"Every week is a different week,'' offensive coordinator Ben McAdoo said Thursday. "You put together a plan that you think gives you the best chance to win, obviously. We felt that gave us a chance to win. We did a nice job with protection early up front. We had some chances down the field to make some throws and make some catches and we didn't come up the way we would like to."
Manning did not connect on any of the long attempts — he was 0-for-6 on passes that traveled 21 or more yards from the line of scrimmage — and now he faces the Seahawks and their renowned Legion of Boom secondary. Time to dial it back again?
"Never,'' McAdoo said. "You don't ever go into a game scared. You go in and trust your plan and trust your preparation. We hit those throws and made those plays in practice last week. We are going to practice hard and take care of the execution and fundamentals and the physicality this week in practice and go out and expect to execute on Sunday.''
Rookie LG Weston Richburg has made a remarkable recovery, considering he was carted off the field against the Colts with a sprained ankle. Richburg was able to practice on a limited basis and thinks he can play in Seattle.
"The cart thing was a little embarrassing,'' he said. "It obviously wasn't serious enough to go off in a cart. I will walk off next time.''
DT Cullen Jenkins (calf) got some work in but remains a long shot to play. "I'm a lot closer than last week,'' he said. … P Steve Weatherford has a back issue that could keep him out of Sunday's game. Kicker Josh Brown handled the early punting duties in Thursday's practice inside the field house.
RB Rashad Jennings (knee) took some reps with the scout team, an indication he could be ready to return Nov. 16 against the 49ers. … G Geoff Schwartz (dislocated toe) is also making progress but remains on short-term IR. "I was able to do more than I was last week, that's probably a sign I'm feeling better,'' Schwartz said. "You get to a certain point where you kind of don't feel it any more. That's kind of what happens with injuries. You got to play a little beat up, I've done it before so it's not a big deal.'' … DE Mathias Kiwanuka (knee) did not practice but is scheduled to work Friday. … OL Adam Snyder (knee) did not practice.
