Soon to be Hall of Famer - Eli Manning

[NEPatsfan]

LMAO

Low RIsk Play

Only New England

yes those of us that actually watch football know what type of play it is.

You know how many times that play had been picked previously?

 

[Rex Racer]

Word, being in a room full of Pats fans arguing the merits of 2 Super Bowl wins by the Giants

Cant imagine why i look like im coming up on the short end

No, you're arguing that Eli is an HOF caliber QB


Comical.

Or if the Tuck Rule isnt called

Or if Billy Cundiff doesnt miss a 20 yard FG

Or if Pete Carroll wasnt born

Then we don't get the first SB. Hey Gostkowski missed his first XP ever against the Broncos last year and could have cost the Pats an OT chance, but no ifs here. I thought Pete Carroll was a decent coach here for the short time and he has been an outstanding coach in Seattle . Not only their first SB but a few in a row and the biggest ass whopping of the no#1 offense in history

Or if Tyree drops the pass, etc

Works both ways numbnuts.

 

[Rex Racer]

That was much more a bad pass than shitty hands by Welker.

50/50

No Doubt

 

[NEPatsfan]

Everyone but the Pats suck, we know the rules

Team was playing for their playoff lives

At times they do, it's just that in their case it's much more rare compared to all the other teams over the last couple of decades.

Comical.

Ill tell ya this kid

I'm a lot closer to being right that he will be in the HOF

Than you are, to saying the suggestion is comical

Oh no, not this again. Welker had his hands on the ball. At that point whether he had to turn to his right or his left is moot. He typically brings that in.

The only point is luck and drops and catches, etc. is all part of the game, and all of it has played a huge part in all of the Pats rings over the past 15 years

Do wide open WR's typically have to lay out for catches?

Just asking

He might be, doesnt make it right.

Sometimes yes.

You don't watch footall do you?

He's mostly vertical in that photo on the left!

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

I actually agree TODAY

He gets to play this weekend, and I think this team is set up nice for the rest of what should be maybe 3 more years of his career

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

Sometimes yes.

You don't watch footall do you?

Yeah, and "sometimes" we ALWAYS call that a bad pass

 

[SU Nittany Tide]

Yeah you say that you're not trying to diminish Eli's career yet you said this (#24): "The Hall doesn't need another Joe Nammoth type qb mucking up the place. He's a longshot @ best." The only slow person right now is you.

But keep pretending that Eli & Namath's #'s are similar across the board.

QB's of his generation with a better passer rating:

1. Aaron Rodgers
2. Russell Wilson
3. Tom Brady
4. Tony Romo
5. Peyton Manning
6. Drew Brees
7. Philip Rivers
8. Ben Roethlisburger
9. Kirk Cousins
10. Matt Ryan
11. Matt Schaub
12. Andy Dalton
13. Colin Kaepernick
14. Carson Palmer
15. Derek Carr
16. Daunte Culpepper
17. Jeff Garcia
18. Andrew Luck
19. Matt Stafford
20. Ryan Tannehill
21. Cam Newton
22. Brett Favre
23. Trent Green
24. David Garrard
25. Jay Cutler
26. Donovan Mcnabb
27. Alex Smith
28. Sam Bradford
29. Joe Flacco
30. Mark Brunell

Problem is we can't go back and play 'what ifs" If Samuels doesn't let that pass go right through his hands, or the refs call Eli in the grasp and its a sack, or Harrison knocks the ball of Tyree's helmet 3 scenarios in last minute that would have given SB to Pats 3

All valid points, but the play that will always stick out to me far as that game goes. Is that monster bomb Brady launched to Moss. Which I guess can be looked at one of two ways. Had Brady been able to get it off a split second sooner. Or if Moss takes a pity-pat step, maybe two. Either scenario happens and best case for the Pats is Moss takes it in for the game winner. Or Moss gets PIed by, damn forgot dude's name, the Giant DB and the Pats are 1st and 10 at the Giants 20 or so yard line.

I didn't know Brady had that kinda arm, but he chucked that mothafucker for real.

This. The rings stay in New Jersey but Eli is NOT a hof qb
