In 10 years, people will remember Superbowls. I'm not saying Eli will be considered better than Peyton, but you can't negate championships.

I'd personally rather be a 2X Superbowl champion.

How do we separate great QBs? Marino is a great QB but Joe Montana is considered to be a better QB. Just like Brady vs Brees/Manning. In the end it's what seperates the best. You need championships to be proven and that's why Big Ben has credibility and Rivers don't. Eli has a chance to be placed among the greats by taking down Brady a second time. If the idiots on the board don't realize this it's because your retarded. Brady is already one of the all time greats and if Eli defeats him again then you have to say he is among the best ever as well. It's not all about stats people.

Are they going to meet at the 50 yard line and fight?

Writing in a rush so sorry that your precious sensibilities were hurt. Should I make it my goal to spell and grammar check you in every thread?

Also, why would someone as intellectual as yourself believe that Eli and Brady should fight on the 50 yard line? Your critique is rather pedestrian brah...

What are you talking about? (The Ravens?)

Everytime that Brady beat Peyton was a fluke and those 3 rings on his fingers are because of the defense

Too bad he has basically FAILED in the playoffs. THINK ABOUT IT. When the Bright light shines, Peyton doesn't get it done.FACT.


Peyton has better career playoff stats than Eli and Brady, FACT. His teams haven't done as well as Brady's, but have done more than Eli's. Also FACTS!

Actually his entire legacy is based on his supposedly great performances in the playoffs and the 2007 season (Randy Moss says your welcome Buzz Lightyear chin).

His legacy is a product of ESPN hype. If he was doing the same thing in say, Houston or Seattle, ESPN would not be hyping him up nearly as much

COLLEGE? Are you serious dude?

Welker had 1321 yards in four years before Brady. In his five years with Brady - 6105



To be fair, Welker did start his career in the wasteland that was Miami.

Cruz

Not even fricking close. Giants have the two best WR in that group easily.



Wait what?

And Moore is what? The Saints 4th receiver or something?

Eli hasn't had a tight end worth a damn to throw to since Shockey left. Brady has the best tight end tandem in the damn league, a damn good little slot guy, and a few other decent level receivers as well.

Eli has made Cruz and Nicks. Guys like Colston and Meachem are damn good players independent of who is throwing them the ball.

To be fair. The Giants would NOT have won that game yesterday with Peyton as QB. Eli is TOUGHER than Peyton. He got hit over and over and kept getting up in BAD conditions and did what he needed to do. FACT. I don't think Peyton could have done that.


This isn't a serious post is it?

Brady intercepted Manning's passes in the playoffs?

Brady forced those 3 turnovers in the first Super Bowl and returned an interception for a touchdown?

Brady is the most overrated quarterback of the last decade and it's not even a debate.

Pretty sure most people consider Dan Marino to be a better quarterback than Doug Williams. I could be wrong about that though.

lol yeah it was Eli who juked Antonio Cromartie and ran 99 yards. Victor Cruz is the best WR in football after the catch Eli throws little 7 yard passes that he turns in to 30 yard plays

Whoever I responded said only WR, so Graham and Sproles would not be included.

The Giants receivers are so fricking good. The Saints guys are fine. Just not in the same class.

So if you are going to use that against Eli, then you need to drop Brees and Brady down as well, especially Brady. Dude has made a career off 3 routes: Drags/Crosses/Slants. Moss, Welker, and now Gronk have made Brady into a Hall of Famer with the hype of the ESPN machine.
