The hit that you are talking about was a clear cut case of a blow to the head of the QB, and even if it had been on a RB or WR it probably would have still been flagged for facemask. Freeny hit Brunell right in the bars which knocked his helmet a good 3 inches lower on his forehead than it was before.
The hit on Manning was more just a gang tackle where Daniels' arm got around Manning's neck. There were no hands to the face and Manning never got hit in the head.
The ref was in the same position for both hits, so I'm pretty sure he called them how he saw them.
