In both SBs the Giants offense started on their own 17 and 12 yard line respectively with less than 4 minutes to go (less than 3 in SBXLII)...yet the defense let them march all the way down the field. Props to Eli and the receivers but the Pats D choked when it counted most.

So the fact that they were in position to win those games with only 10 and 14 pts scored up until that point reflects on who? Point blank 21 and 17 pts should not have been enough to beat those Pat teams. Offense had a chance to put the game away prior to those drives and to pull the game out afterwards.

Absurd. This is why I always hate the "Superbowls determine your greatness" standard.

Peyton is greater than the # of Superbowls he's won and Eli is worse than his #. Plain & simple.

Eli got him in the rings department and is more clutch then him but I don't know if I can put him over Peyton on the all time list. If he gets another ring I wouldn't have a choice though. But no way will I put Eli as top five unless he goes on an absolute incredible run these next 3 or 4 years. I still remember all the subpar moments he has had over his career too.

Tiki just wants the booing to stop. He doesn't believe in anything he is saying. He needs applause to live. Don't take anything he says seriously.

So Eli is better than Peyton becauase of a drop by Samuel and a bad pass by Brady? :shaq2: Not gonna deny the fact that he is clutch but his two rings have way more to do with great defense and just flat out good luck than his clutch. Eli has been more fortunate than his brother, that's about it.

:what:

he lucked his way into two superbowl rings?

:ohhh: :beli:

Brady's pass was catchable but other than that this /thread for me.

I clearly referenced multiple things that contributed to him winning two rings and yes luck was one of them.

Has there ever been a point where Eli has been the best in the league? Or even top 3? Top 5?

only reason this is even a comparison is because they have the same last name.

Manning played well in the BMore game and if not for one of the worst plays by a DB I've ever seen and Champ Bailey having his worst game as a pro they win that game.

no amount of rings will make Eli better than Peyton. None. Teams win rings, not QB's. Show that nikka Tiki their QB stats and watch him break fast...
