bigdogtim Posted September 8, 2014 Posted September 8, 2014 Wow does Eli look bad. I know EJ is not elite yet and may never be, but the Giants have problems we might not have.
Over 29 years of fanhood Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 2 rings and trips to Hawaii. It's a team game and the giants are a bad one.
Fixxxer Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 The Giants OL got old and banged up, you can see they're not good enough right now, not to mention they're installing a new offense.
JESSEFEFFER Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Wow does Eli look bad. I know EJ is not elite yet and may never be, but the Giants have problems we might not have. This is not just a consideration for the first game of the 2014 season but is pretty much the true for all of 2013 as well. If you think of franchise QB as a "marriage" between an NFL team and their QB, then Fitz was like a living arrangement with an out clause but Eli and his $20 million against the cap this year and next might be headed to divorce court.
Solomon Grundy Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 2 rings and trips to Hawaii. It's a team game and the giants are a bad one. Zactly! A bad offensive line will make any QB look bad! See Pats/Dolphins highlights
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 He will the worst qb to ever win 2 SBs. Those weren't even good Giant teams. They got hot at the right time & Eli made a few plays. He was never an elite qb. He basically is Jay Cutler.
Johnny Hammersticks Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 The Giants OL got old and banged up, you can see they're not good enough right now, not to mention they're installing a new offense. When is the last time the Giants had a good offensive line?
Fixxxer Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 When is the last time the Giants had a good offensive line? They weren't great but they were together for a long time and that made for a cohesive group, it seems like they fell apart in unison.
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 When is the last time the Giants had a good offensive line? Some Qbs can make an oline look worse.
Hapless Bills Fan Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Wow does Eli look bad. I know EJ is not elite yet and may never be, but the Giants have problems we might not have. Keep in mind that bad QB Eli has 2 SB rings and trips to Hawaii. It's a team game.
C.Biscuit97 Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Keep in mind that bad QB Eli has 2 SB rings and trips to Hawaii. It's a team game. His team was the reason he won those SBs. He gets way too much credit for those SBs.
Dr. Fong Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 He will the worst qb to ever win 2 SBs. Those weren't even good Giant teams. They got hot at the right time & Eli made a few plays. He was never an elite qb. He basically is Jay Cutler. So if you had a chance to swap straight up Eli for EJ would you do it? I don't think I would. Maybe it's just hangover from Sunday.
Fixxxer Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 So if you had a chance to swap straight up Eli for EJ would you do it? I don't think I would. Maybe it's just hangover from Sunday. I think Eli would change the Giants for the Bills right now.
Dean Cain Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Eli has a a great quality; he is never injured & is the NFLs current ironman at QB. He's statistically equivalent to Jim Kelly, and assuming he plays another 5 seasons will finish around 50,000 yards. Add up 2 Super Bowls & you have a Hall of a Fame QB. Not evening factoring he plays in the demanding NY market.
ExiledInIllinois Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Can EJ rattle off 9 wins, go 9-7 and win the Supebowl two times? Then you can start comparing him to Eli. I hope so and can only dream he is as good as Eli.

Not evening factoring he plays in the demanding NY market. Eli's career average QB rating is 81. That is at best just above average. Drew Brees has an average of 95 while Aaron Rodgers has an average of 101. Those are elite numbers. Eli may make the hall of fame but it probably won't be first ballot.
cage Posted September 9, 2014 Posted September 9, 2014 Wow does Eli look bad. I know EJ is not elite yet and may never be, but the Giants have problems we might not have. Speaking of QBs with awful days, how about Tony Romo... just brutal. If EJ ever has a day like that I'm sure we'll be calling to cut him instantly and elevate Tuel time for the rest of the year.
