Let's discuss Eli Manning

Eli hasn't looked too the past few years. What would it do for his legacy if he called it a day and just retired early? 2 Super Bowl wins for the biggest media market team is nothing to scoff at.

Is this Manning Wednesday or something?

He'd still be pretty well respected

That's my point. He should quit while he is ahead.

Eh, Warner put up some pretty incredible stats. Not very comparable IMO.

Obviously, it all depends on what he does from here. I don't think him retiring now will be looked on favorably. You're supposed to do it after a SB win or a good season, not when you look like shite.

I dropped him as my back up in fantasy in favor of Ryan Mallett.

He is a sure fire hall of fame player with multiple Super Bowls.

He'll probably get in, and that's a shame.

If Eli walked away today, he would be a borderline HoF quarterback.
I have a feeling he is going to have a career "second wind", and put all doubt away.

No two time Superbowl winning qb has ever been denied the hof. why start with him.
Big Ben will get in too.

ETA: I posted this same thing in the most recent "should Eli got into the HOF" thread.

That doesn't look like a HOF career. The only thing in his favor is the rings.

If he retired tomorrow he wouldn't get in the hof.

Idk about that. People love the rings argument. shite, look at every QB discussion on TD. It always goes back to rings.

Probably? He's a lock. He's going to finish his career with nearly 400 TD passes and over 60,000 passing yards, not to mention his hardware.
