ELI Manning Might be The Worst Rookie QB Ever

[TheGeneral+]

I have no idea why this would turn into a Manning vs Roser issue. The fact is if Roser played in NY, they would be no better. There is no surrounding support for Eli in NY. Roser has good talent around him. (Defense)


Dante, did you ever figure out why QB's use play action?

Staley brought a winning attitude from a certain team . Everyone wins when they inject the Eagle factor!

[FairWarning]

Many experts in the nfl agree they have never seen a qb look so bad that was a number 1 pick

The kid does not have it

Thats what Steeler fans said in 1970 about Bradshaw.

They are not as good as the Bears or Lions. Big Ben is in a great spot but I hope they play the Colts in the playoffs. I know who my money will be on - Colts.

Didn't turn out right, try this: http://www.pro-football-reference.com/games/MannPe00.htm#1998

Dante - I see the qb ratings and some of those are vs some bad defenses. All I am saying is Eli has played no softies whatsoever. Not cutting down Ben, I think some are rushing to judgement on Eli a hair early?

I'll have more for you. I'll just throw out a couple more for the class - Steve Young and Brett Favre. Didn't quite excel in the first year. I would say me list would be longer than the list of rookies qbs who played well.

How did Manning look vs the #1 defense?

 

[Dante]

not #1 pass Defense....Pitt is #1 RUN defense AND he looked shakey at times but did better then his usual self...threw a key DUCK at the end

I meant overall D. I thought both qbs played very well today.

 

[Dante]

CONGRATS ELI!! TOP 10 IN PASSING TD's ALLTIME

Giants quarterback Eli Manning wasn't idle either, as he threw for six TDs of his own, which allowed him to pass both Joe Montana and Vinny Testaverde to reach No. 10 on the NFL's all-time list for touchdowns thrown.
