re: Spinoff: Why does Everybody Attribute Super Bowls with Quarterbacks?

So by that logic, Eli must be the Greatest, since he beat Brady twice. Come on man, you were rolling until you tried to say Manning only got 2 Super Bowls because he faced two crappy QBs. I mean, look at who he had to go through to win those 2. He had to beat Brady to get to 3 of his 4 Super Bowl appearances.

You're making a pretty common mistake of pitting two QBs in a head to head argument. But they don't play against each other, so it's not really making a point.

I have no problem using Super Bowl wins or what ever people feel the need to use when talking about "the greatest" anything. Let's face it, except for a couple of positions in sports, you are splitting hairs either way. The line is absurdly thin between 1 and 5 in most cases.
