I saw this being argued elsewhere and I thought I'd like to see how it plays out over here.
Eli gets flustered. Gets confused by blitzes (8 sacks vs. Philly). Is inaccurate on basic passes. He doesn't inspire confidence in his teammates. 16 teams, at least, are going into this season with a better QB than Eli.

"Eli Manning is NOT in the top half of NFL quarterbacks."
There are 32 teams, each with 3 QB's. Thats 96 QBs on NFL rosters. I dont think i need to name any, but there are not 48 QB's better then Eli in the NFL. Remember you said NFL QB's, not starting or back ups!
Jazinho said 08/22, 10:53 AM
I misspoke. I meant starting quarterbacks.
You can win this on the semantics point, or perhaps argue my intended premise. Or at least on the premise stated in my first argument that 16 teams are going into the season with a better QB. The choice is yours.

Report Offensive CommentWow how is Goodell losing
TheGuyWhoKnowsEverything | 08/22/07, 10:54 AM
Report Offensive CommentWin or lose, I think not everyone jumps on the semantics point. Of course I was talking about starting QBs and perhaps some people give me the benefit of the doubt on the missing word.
Jazinho | 08/22/07, 10:57 AM
Report Offensive CommentAnd in my first argument I said that 16 teams will start the year with a better QB than Eli. He failed to argue my first argument and instead jumped on a writing error.

Report Offensive CommentVote for Goodell strictly on semantics.
rstowe - The NMI Emperor | 08/22/07, 10:59 AM
Report Offensive CommentOk well even so then you should list the 16 you take over him. That would better help to prove your point if you are going to argue he isnt in the top half of starting qb's
TheGuyWhoKnowsEverything | 08/22/07, 11:00 AM
Report Offensive CommentThat was going to be my second argument before I had to clarify the point about "starting".
Jazinho | 08/22/07, 11:01 AM
Report Offensive Commentits not the qb, its the weak coach/owner and shockey, he is so flustered with teh ramifications of missing shockey while hes open he has to look at him 3 times before throwing to another open man, resulting in missing receivers and holding the ball too long, until shockey becomes humbled and/or the coach and owners get a handle on him that offense will never be good

TheGuyWhoKnowsEverything | 08/22/07, 11:10 AM
Report Offensive CommentI would take some teams backups before I chose Eli Manning to be my QB. The Giants got swindled into trading for a name rather than a player. Then again, maybe Eli would have blossomed on a team like the Chargers. That might be a great TD. Anyone want to challenge me on that?
Ahmed Adoudi | 08/22/07, 11:19 AM
Report Offensive CommentGoodell you are losing the arguement now that you named who you did. I see a couple that right now can be said they are better starters than Eli
