Is there a more overrated NFL player right now than Eli Manning?

    I didn't know there were so many Eli lovers on the board. I guess it's the SEC pride thing. I get that, but I don't see how you bet against a guy like Tom Brady.

    What if it has nothing to do with being an Eli lover, SEC pride, or Tom Brady? Certainly it's more then probable that people just don't think he's overrated.

  • Pressure is on Brady. He must win to have a winning record in Super Bowls.

    The whole "who's better" Tom or Eli thing is laughable. On one side you have good looking, 3 time SB winner, future Hall of Famer stud QB Tom Brady. On the other side you have Opie, I mean Eli Manning, a good player on a good team. Eli can't hold Brady's jock, heck I don't think he could hold Giselle's jock, although he prolly wants to.
    Eli is barely a Top 8 QB if I was starting a team tomorrow. But all you are going to hear all day is how great he is. Don't believe the hype, cause that's what it is.

    Agree 100%

Sure, it's a little ghey that he did a commercial for Uggs, but the he got paid for it. It's a known fact that good looking guys make better leaders or at least inspire more confidence in their followers. It's why you will never see a bald or fat POTUS. So if you were in the huddle would you rather look at TB's blue sparklers or at Eli's ugly mug? No contest IYAM IMO FWIW.

    Wow, dumbest post ever... It is not a known fact at all and hilarious that you actually took time to post such nonsense.

    Thank you. I think he is underrated if anything.

    Dumbest post ever? I seriously doubt that.

    SCam is the most dynamic QB in the league and will revolutionize the QB position. If you were starting a franchise and today 9 out of 10 GMs would take Cam. Stafford put up better stats with a worse defense and way less options on Offense. Rivers is a headcase but is more talented IMO.

    Yea, but the 1 out of 10 that took Aaron Rodgers would actually still have a job afterward.

    I meant 9 out of 10 GMs would take CAM over Opie.
    It's a given that Rodgers is the best in the league right now.

    I loathe the Gmen but, I can't stand Bellidick and Brady-his collars, Drakkar ads, and his overall personality are bothersome. He also went to Michigan so that is another big strike.

    Eli is the opposite of a big time athlete in personality. I will root for him tonight.

    I want him to beat Tom and I want him to have more SB rings than his brother because Peyton annoys the hell out of me as well.

    Lil Ole Eli is pretty dam clutch and always seems to get his team in a place to win the game...ugly or not.

    This. Except for the slam on Peyton.

    The whole "who's better" Tom or Eli thing is laughable. On one side you have good looking, 3 time SB winner, future Hall of Famer stud QB Tom Brady. On the other side you have Opie, I mean Eli Manning, a good player on a good team. Eli can't hold Brady's jock, heck I don't think he could hold Giselle's jock, although he prolly wants to. Eli is barely a Top 8 QB if I was starting a team tomorrow. But all you are going to hear all day is how great he is. Don't believe the hype, cause that's what it is.

    Dude shut up. Eli is legit.

  • So Eli goes 30/40 for 296 yards and leads a late 4th Quarter drive to win his 2nd Super Bowl and 2nd Super Bowl MVP but is overrated???

    I guess we shoulda listened to your logic as well for go big on Bama (we win our first SEC game) and if the spread goes to Pats -2.5 bet the house on it?

    That;s funny because I think Brady is the most overrated QB ever right next to Joe Namath.

    I don't think there is one GM in the league that would take scam over Eli , at least none that have any sense .

    They are both great qbs in the clutch,but lets give Eli some credit, thats twice he has done it as the underdog. I wouldnt want a qb that has a wife with a JOCK! Jus sayn,wife and jock just seems kinda CLEMSONISH!!!!!!
