Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Manning Bowl (American football)
I should first perhaps mention that, due to my New Orleans connections, I have been watching both of the Mannings for a ''long'' time (Eli since high school).  This AfD, like the pending one for Harbaugh Bowl,  presents the question: what quantum of notability is necessary for an article about a regular-season NFL game?  In some sense, every NFL game could be said to pass , since there's always plenty of contemporaneous coverage and then almost always further coverage later in the season and afterward.  But we clearly don't want a separate article on every game, so we have to have some understanding of what sorts of games are unusual enough to qualify for their own article.  :Category:National Football League games has only 14 entries, at least two of which are currently being reviewed at AfD. The other games on the list tend to have truly famous plays (e.g., River City Relay, Miracle at the Meadowlands).  There are others in other categories,  such as the Heidi Game which is categorized under :Category:National Football League controversies.  Somewhat subjectively, I don't think the Manning games come up to this level.   To the extent that there's some notability in the "rivalry" between the Mannings, I don't think it's limited to, or even particularly focused upon, their occasional games against each other, but more about comparing their overall careers, and how Eli has now surprisingly won more Super Bowls than his big brother.  It seems enough to talk about these comparisons in their respective biographies
