Why is Eli Manning not considered not a average QB?

[LA RAM FAN]

First of all let's take away the 1st SB for obvious reasons. So that gives him 1 SB and after winning that one he missed the playoffs 2 seasons in a row. Last season he was responsible for his team starting 0-6 and led the league in interceptions. And in between the 2008 SB and 2012 SB he missed the playoffs 2 times which means he missed the playoffs 4 times out of the last 5 years


By the way, I am a diehard New England Patriots fan.

we gathered that after that thread you created where you went on a laughable rant showing how deluded you are,that you live in a fantasyland that seahawks might miss the playoffs this year, even though their schedule this year is even easier than last years.

Had you just stopped with saying they wont repeat,that they will be lucky if they get to the NFC championship game, you would have credibility around here but you lost any you had whatsoever saying they may not make it to the playoffs.

Its funny how you deny reality that the AFC is so weak thats the ONLY reason the donkeys and cheatriots will face each other again in the title game is because of that.

again since you hate the seahawks so much,you better hope the seahawks have key multiple injurys down the road since you obviously have a vendetta against them because thats the ONLY way they dont go back to the superbowl and destroy your chetriots making them the newest victem of their physical defense they wont be able to handle.

your memory is so bad that you cant even remember the game they had two years ago in seattle where the defense,after giving up a couple touchdowns early in that game in the first half stiffened and came back and beat your cheatriots in the second half.

the only reason that game was as close as it was is because it was Russel wilsons first season as a starter early on in the year when he was still trying to learn the game and figure out how to be a consistant quarterback and playing with hangcuffs on him at the time not taking chances with the football so they couldnt muster much on offense till later on when the pats defense got tired in the second half and wislon was finally able to wear them down while still learning the game at the time.

from that pathetic thread of yours you created,you obviously were one of those people back then that i mocked for their stupidity picking the donkeys to win the superbowl.

you were on crack back then picking the donkeys to win just like you were on crack recently when you made that pathetic thread saying the seahawks might not make the playoffs this year.

as i said on that thread of yours,because of how pitiful and weak the AFC is,the donkeys are the cheatriots only serious challenge.the pats schedule is even easier than the seahawks shedule is this year.

The donkeys,since they have to play the tough physical NFC west this year,will have to go on the road to play your pats in the AFC title game so the pats will be the newest victem of the seahawks who get their asses kicked and humiliated in the superbowl by them.

The cheatriots will find out the same thing the donkeys did last year.that they wont be able to handle a defense like nothing they have seen before since two years ago when they last faced the hawks,it will be way too much for them to handle and also suffer a blowout as well.

the chetriots will be able to beat up on pitiful patsys the entire year in the weak AFC for their competition having to face patsys in their division that are weak. The jets who dont have a quarterback,the bills who are in the same boat rebuilding with a quarterback who is a question mark,and the dolphins,whos quarterback is a question mark as well while the seahawks play in the toughest division in the league because they all have punishing physical defenses far more physical than other NFL teams around the league that they have to face TWICE a year.

facing the donkeys defense was paradise for them after facing the NFC west teams twice yearly. so will the cheatriiots defense.

the donkeys are going to counting their blessings they only have to face the NFC west teams just ONCE this year.

While I expect the Seahawks to return to the playoffs, it's entirely possible they miss it. Besides the Super Bowl hangover to worry about, the NFC West is the toughest division in football. If the Cardinals have improved at all and the Niners can continue to play as well as they have so far under Harbaugh, it wouldn't be completely crazy to imagine the Hawks going 10-6 and missing the playoffs.

 

[rightwinger]

both SB teams was because of the running game and defense, nothing to do with Eli

Fourth quarter comebacks with the game on the line had everything to do with Eli. Especially when you have to drive your team 85 yards for winning touchdowns, Eli did it TWICE. Only two other quarterbacks have managed to do it once

So using your logic... Eli Manning played better in his Super Bowls than Russell Wilson because he came from behind down a TD in the fourth qtr. Russell Wilson was up 36-0 until the last play of the third qtr so clearly he played worse than Manning..

Abso-fucking-lutely Eli's heroics were better than Wilson's 206 yards passing

Eli's legacy WILL take a hit This season as it will showcase how average to below average he has become. Just as Peyton's will for excactly the reasons forcast by 9/11. The NFC West will chew the Broncos up and spit them out. The only good news for the older Manning is that the rest of the AFC West will suffer the same fate this season so there will be no seperation because of the schedule.

That leaves the door open for even a so-so Patriots team to take the lead in the American Conference home field advantage at the end of the season.

If the Pats make it to the Super Bowl The Seahawks should deliver the same message to the NFL that they did in SB 48.

They won't say that Brady choked... They will just point to the Seahawks as the new Dynasty.

Once your legacy is built it does not take a hit. Didn't affect Johnny Unitas, Bart Starr, Joe Namath

If Eli Manning has a decent line and his receivers are healthy, he will have a good year
If not, he and the team will struggle

There was a time before the internet when a "legacy" could be managed and/or preserved.

Many NFL QBs that had great runs and won many championships went on to other teams late in their carears ending up playing poorly or had no other super athletes to throw to or hand the ball off to and it did nothing to their legacys.

Now there is so much public inspection and discussion of every little thing that who really knows how much weight all the video clips and blogs and message boards will have as time goes on and the "what have you done for us lately" question gets asked publicly.

There may come a time sooner than later when a super star athlete considers retiring at or near the zienith of his body of work rather than have his "legacy" eroded by a drop off of his own skills or being in a circumstance beyond his control causing his stats and W/L record to take a hit.

Kind of like Brett Favre.

And in between the 2008 SB and 2012 SB he missed the playoffs 2 times which means he missed the playoffs 4 times out of the last 5 years

So tell me again why does he always get a pass and not considered a borderline below average QB?

Eli Manning's TEAM has won two Super Bowls.

Eli Manning's TEAM missed the playoffs two seasons in a row.

Eli Manning's TEAM started last year 0-6.

Eli Manning has not had the receiving corps, or the offensive lines, or the running games, that his brother Peyton has enjoyed throughout his career.

The Giants, as a TEAM, have been a MESS offensively, due to injuries, free agency losses, and an overall lack of talent. Their defense has not been much better.

I am not an Eli Manning fan, but the man played his ass off in both Super Bowl victories, and showed me he was a big game WINNER, unlike his older brother.

Have the Manning brothers switch teams for a couple of seasons, and see who adapts better to their new team.

I would LOVE to see Peyton Manning play on a team with no offensive line, no wide receivers, and a haphazard running game. He would be on the disabled list faster than he could say "Better ingredients, better pizza, Papa Johns".

By the way, I am a diehard New England Patriots fan.

Maybe a simpler way is to look at the stats and find out which brother has the better record?

Comedy GOLD..

Wilson was such a surgeon in that Super Bowl that he barely had to work up a sweat to "Manage" a victory. He threw for two TDs and made ZERO mistakes. No ints..no fumbles.. He just made it look too easy. No need for heroics when you are stomping the piss out of a defense. THe Hawks QB was more thoroughly prepared than the great awesome Peyton Manning and it was obvious. Let alone better prepared than the Not So Great Eli Manning who had to STRUGGLE to get his rings. Wilson didn't have to make it look hard. He made it look easy. He was busy thinking about dumping his cheating wife to the curb and cashing in on the Super Bowl win... meeting the president.. etc...

Wilson claimed that he will be the best QB the NFL has ever seen. If he threepeats there will be some more than not who will end up agreeing with him.

It is hard not to like Russell. It will be damned near impossible not to like him if he breezes through another SB.

You Seattle grunge-heads are incredibly naive, alarmingly immature, and have the mental equivalence of a group of grade school playground bullies.

Other than that, you are not worthy of any more of my time.

Seattle has one of the highest levels of public education in the nation. It's work force is the best educated.

Don't be fooled by Richard Sherman stealing the spotlight with his well timed rants. He recieved a 4.5 GPA from Stanford. He went from a low round pick to the highest rated player on Madden football game and arguably the best corner in the NFL.

Sherman isn't even the best DB in Seattle's defensive backfield. That would be free safety Earl Thomas who is faster than Sherman and the QB of the DBs ..makes all the defense calls on the field.

You would be mistaken thinking that Seattle is made up of ignorant bullies.

I think he was just referring to those who are posting on this thread. At least, that's what I gathered from his comment.

 

[ChrisL]

obviously someone who cant stand to hear critisem of Belecheat. damn right I hate cheaters.especially overrated hacks who get billed as the greatest coach ever when they were a miserable failure with a previous team and is only called the greatest coach now because a rare great named Tom Brady came along and saved it from the toilet where he was stuck before brady his career.

I cant wait till Brady retires.then the whole world will see what an overrated hack of a coach he really is when he doesnt have him there to make him look good anymore. They used to say the same thing about Mike Shannahan when Elway was winning superbowls for him that he was a genius but once Elway retired,he was exposed for the overrated hack he was.same thing will happen to Belecheat in a couple years or so especially since the guy they drafted to replace him for the future was a BACKUP in college.

The Pats went 11-5 without Brady....

when you got randy moss to throw to who was at that time playing the game with love and passion and was being considered at the time as comparable to jerry rice before eventually becoming a slacker,you could have put me or you back there and you would have had a great offense to light up the boards and of course win lots of games .

the chiefs also went 10-6 one time with the same quarterback that year when they had todd haley so i guess that means todd haley is automatically a good coach by that logic or it COULD be that was just a fluke year for haley and belecheat,the much more realistic explanation.

I wonder how much extra time it takes you to type out a post with ALL of those emoticons. Gee whiz! Smiley overkill.

I wasn't sure as the rant was seemingly directed to "Seattle grunge heads".. and ignorant bullies

I don't care for the grunge. 9/11 doesn't live here in Seattle.. No idea what his musical tastes are..

As for juvenile posts.. I'm way North of 60 ... I was a big promoter under the name of West Coast Productions bringing many big name black blues artists to the Pacific Northwest back in the early 70's.

Not a fan of grunge. I've got to say that I love it, but I'm not even from Seattle, so thankfully I'm not one of those Seattle grunge heads.

Abso-fucking-lutely Eli's heroics were better than Wilson's 206 yards passing

Comedy GOLD..

Wilson was such a surgeon in that Super Bowl that he barely had to work up a sweat to "Manage" a victory. He threw for two TDs and made ZERO mistakes. No ints..no fumbles.. He just made it look too easy. No need for heroics when you are stomping the piss out of a defense. THe Hawks QB was more thoroughly prepared than the great awesome Peyton Manning and it was obvious. Let alone better prepared than the Not So Great Eli Manning who had to STRUGGLE to get his rings. Wilson didn't have to make it look hard. He made it look easy. He was busy thinking about dumping his cheating wife to the curb and cashing in on the Super Bowl win... meeting the president.. etc...

Wilson claimed that he will be the best QB the NFL has ever seen. If he threepeats there will be some more than not who will end up agreeing with him.

It is hard not to like Russell. It will be damned near impossible not to like him if he breezes through another SB.

If Wilson completed zero passes for zero yards, the SeaHawks would have still won. Wilson padded his stats once the SeaHawks were up 30-0
Eli completed critical passes for key first downs during game winning drives. Eli, rightfully won two MVPs, Wilson didn't

No comparison between the two

How can a QB "pad his stats" in a Super Bowl?

The Seahawks were not playing the worst team in the AFC.

They were playing supposedly the BEST team the AFC had to offer.

Denver was the most prolific offense in the history of the NFL.

At what point does a team playing the best offense in NFL history let up?

I don't mean to appear glib but that is the silliest argument I think I have ever seen concerning Super Bowl 48.

The Hawks were picked to lose the Super Bowl by Vegas and the majority of betting public.

Giving the MVP to a substitute linebacker just because he gets a pick six is questionable.

Wilson played better than Peyton Manning...He played better than Eli Manning in both of his SB wins.

Eli..ratings of 87.3 and 103.8

Wilson's rating was 123.1

Only 7 QBs in history have had a better Super Bowl QB rating.

Wilson had a better rating than Peyton Manning when he won his SB(73.5). He had a better rating than all of Brady's wins(100.5, 91.1, 82.5, 110.2). He had a better rating than one of the only second year SB winners Rothlesburger(77.1)

Suggesting that Wilson just mailed it in is rediculous.

 

[ChrisL]

A lot of people seem to think that because their team is doing well in their own division, that it means they are a really great team, but that's not necessarily the case. I think that was the case with Denver. They were a bit overrated IMO.

Denver was the most prolific offense in the history of the NFL.

At what point does a team playing the best offense in NFL history let up?

I don't mean to appear glib but that is the silliest argument I think I have ever seen concerning Super Bowl 48.

The Hawks were picked to lose the Super Bowl by Vegas and the majority of betting public.

Giving the MVP to a substitute linebacker just because he gets a pick six is questionable.

Wilson played better than Peyton Manning...He played better than Eli Manning in both of his SB wins.

Eli..ratings of 87.3 and 103.8

Wilson's rating was 123.1

Only 7 QBs in history have had a better Super Bowl QB rating.

Wilson had a better rating than Peyton Manning when he won his SB(73.5). He had a better rating than all of Brady's wins(100.5, 91.1, 82.5, 110.2). He had a better rating than one of the only second year SB winners Rothlesburger(77.1)

Suggesting that Wilson just mailed it in is rediculous.

Eli defeated what was set to become the greatest team of all time ....the 18-0 NE Patriots
Wilson padded his stats with two late TDs against a team that had already quit on the field

Eli defeated a team where he was a 13 point underdog
Wilson defeated a team where he was a 2 point underdog

Elis victory is one of the greatest of all time
Wilsons role in the win is already forgotten

This is too easy
