One last time for the Brothers Manning

The two most prolific passing performances on kickoff weekend were by Peyton Manning (462 yards) and Eli Manning (450). Sunday at MetLife Stadium will be the first meeting in NFL history of quarterbacks who both threw for 400-plus yards the previous week. Leave it to the Mannings to arrive in style.

After this game, the next time the Giants and Broncos will face each other in the regular season is 2017, when Peyton will be 41 years old and Eli is 36. So, barring the siblings meeting in a Super Bowl, this weekend is the third and last time they will square off.

Peyton is up on Eli, 2-0, with the Colts beating Eli’s Giants in 2006 (26-21) and in 2010 (38-14). Peyton is one of the top five quarterbacks to play in the NFL. Eli is one of the best postgame performers and leads Peyton 2-1 in Super Bowl rings. Down the road, when both are older and grayer, the difference between Eli being 1-2 or 0-3 versus Peyton will mean a great deal, for bragging rights, for reliving glory days, for fun.

HALL OF A CEREMONY

Sunday’s home opener at MetLife Stadium will provide a backdrop to the rich history of the Giants franchise. A special halftime ceremony, The Post has learned, will include the rare appearance of all the players enshrined in the Pro Football Hall of Fame who spent all or a significant part of their careers as Giants, including the newest member, Bill Parcells.

Parcells joins an elite group of six living former Giants to be enshrined in Canton. Harry Carson and Lawrence Taylor, linebackers on the Parcells’ two-time Super Bowl winning teams, will be on hand. So will another Giants linebacker of the past, Sam Huff, as will one of Huff’s heralded teammates, Frank Gifford. Quarterback Y.A Tittle, at 86 the oldest living Giants Hall of Famer, also will be honored during the ceremony. Parcells, enshrined this year, will be presented with his Hall of Fame ring.
