On Sunday in San Francisco, Eli Manning started his 112th regular season game, which is the equivalent of eight full NFL seasons. He has started those games consecutively, which is the longest streak among the league's active quarterbacks and the fourth-longest in history. Only Brett Favre (297), Peyton Manning (208) and Ron Jaworski (116) have started more consecutive games among quarterbacks than Manning, who is 66-46 (.589) in the regular season.

Courtesy of the Elias Sports Bureau, this is how his record and statistics compare with all other current quarterbacks who have started at least 112 games, as well as Favre, Jaworski and Phil Simms, whose Giants career passing records will likely be broken by Manning.

*Among the active quarterbacks – including Collins, who is on injured reserve – Manning is tied for the third-most victories (with his brother).

*Eli Manning has thrown 247 fewer passes than Peyton and has 333 fewer completions and 4,174 fewer yards, but they have identical records through 112 games.

*Eli and Peyton each have more than twice as many victories as their father did at this point in their careers.

*Including his totals from two games he played as a rookie reserve in 2004, Eli Manning has 25,334 passing yards in seven seasons plus nine games. Archie Manning finished his 14-year career with 23,911 yards.

*Eli has 173 touchdown passes and 121 interceptions. His father's career totals were 125 touchdown passes and 173 interceptions.

*Compared to Simms' 112-game stats, Manning has thrown 266 more passes, has 301 more completions and 1,011 more yards - and has one more victory.

*Tom Coughlin coached two of the players on the list – Mark Brunell in Jacksonville and Manning.

*Manning's 66-46 breaks down 33-23 at home and 33-23 on the road.

*Manning has led the Giants to a 6-3 record and first place in the NFC East. He is also having his finest statistical season. Through nine games, Manning has completed 202 of 320 passes (63.1 percent) for 2,688 yards, 17 touchdowns and eight interceptions. If Manning continues to post numbers at his present pace, he will establish both career bests and franchise records in several categories:

*Would tie the team record set by Collins in 2001.

**Would set a team record. Manning owns the marks for completions and percentage (339 and 62.9, both in 2010) and Collins holds the yardage record with 4,073 in 2002.

*Career low for a 16-start season.

Now in the second half of his eighth season, Manning is on his way to setting all of the Giants' major career passing records:
