PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Eli Manning threw two TD passes and John Carney kicked two field goals to give the NFC East-leading New York Giants a 20-17 lead over the Philadelphia Eagles at halftime on Sunday night.

Trying to slice a game off New York's lead, Philadelphia scored two touchdowns off Giants' turnovers. Donovan McNabb threw a TD pass and lined up as a wideout on a trick play score that gave the Eagles their first touchdown. David Akers kicked a 29-yard field goal as the first half expired to make it 20-17.

The Giants and Eagles played in front of a special guest. Vice President-elect Joe Biden watched the game in a luxury suite with Eagles owner Jeffrey Lurie. Biden was booed when he was showed on the video screen.

Manning finished a 10-play, 80-yard drive with a 1-yard TD pass to Kevin Boss on the first play of the second quarter for a 17-7 lead.

Manning, who has a 3-0 career regular-season record in Philadelphia, helped drive the Giants to their 35 when Brandon Jacobs lost a fumble. Jacobs hurdled over Asante Samuel and was hit in the air by Eagles linebacker Chris Gocong. The ball popped loose and was recovered by linebacker Mike Patterson, who also had a first-quarter interception.

2. It's Philadelphia. BOSSHOG can explain it. They boo everybody. nt

4. exactly. JC would be booed.

Well, A young briget bardot would not be booed, nor a semi-clothed cheryl tiegs or Sophia Loren, but Joe just doesn't have the legs for it.

5. This is true.

If an Eagle/Phillies fan saw himself on the jumbotron he would most likely boo. Everyone gets booed.

6. I think the AP was mistaken. They were already Booing before NBC showed Biden

They thought there should have been an intentional grounding call on the play, but none was called, so they were booing, then NBC showed BIden. Plus, I'm not even sure he ever made it on the jumbo tron.

9. He was on NBC TV for about 8 seconds - I thought

"I know that guy from somewhere," then the 'casters were talking again and there was some crap on the field. I doubt he registered with the fans at the game, if it was eveu on their screens.

GOP writer, probably.

[Bleacher Creature]

18. The AP is WRONG. The crowd was booing an apparent non-call by the refs.

They thought that Eli Manning gounded the ball.

[LynneSin]

20. That's bullshit - they were booing a bad call by the ref

And at least Lurie didn't having him trotted out for the opening coin toss.
