umm yeah that guy. he looks ALOT better than chad this year picks included. now before this season started i would baulk at the notion of this thread but I'm surprised, with Tiki gone, that Eli looks like hes taking control of the offense for once.
Pretty much. If I had to win one game this week and had to pick either guy to run the same team I'd pick Chad. If we're talking about which guy you're looking to plug in for the next few years to make a run, probably Eli. Based on youth, health and the improvement he's shown.
It depends which team. Against a good Defense Chad is pretty much not getting it done. Against a bad D he would give you less of a chance to screw it up.
the comments about noodle arm having won playoff games is a cheesy excuse. manning has only been in the league half the years noodle has been. manning has much more upside and he seems to be coming around. noodle arm had a better team going into those playoff games also. manning will be nothing great(average), but noodle arm has had one good year(2002)and shown to be average since. last year was the weak ass schedule and we won inspite of noodle arm more than because of him!!!!
Cahd is better ! Eli has more velocity on his passes and can throw the long ball better. The one thing Eli does that is similar to a Chad long pass is he kind of heaves the ball if that makes any sense. (The way it looks when he thorws a long pass coming out of his hand)
This in one of those polls I couldn't vote in because the two players have such different strengths and weaknesses. It's like asking whether you'd rather have a convertible or a pickup truck. If you're needing to haul some loads you take the pickup truck and if you want to do some sightseeing you take the convertible. BTW, this is a roundabout way of saying neither of those players is particularly good at this point. Some QB's just look like a Mercedes station wagon and cut off the other two choices.
I can't decide what's worse, this poll or the fact that it's even close. Why would anyone choose Eli if they took off the green shades? The only reason people get down on Chad is because they're Jets fans and feel we have a better option for this current team. Chad's hurt right now, which has affected his play lately more than anyone would care to admit. Side to side in similar personnel situations, both healthy, it's not even close.
My God...thank you for that dose of brilliant insight! I'd better cancel my reservations in Arizona. After that 1-3 start I thought we were Super Bowl bound!
The ankle is still bothering him. He's still receiving treatment, and it's clear that it's still affecting his throws.
Well I'm glad you understand how bad your team is...Better luck next year. Maybe the NFL will give you another puff schedule like they did last year
Just give him your tickets. His team will be there. Oh wait. This isn't 2006 anymore. Peyton's not beating Brady again...
We'll see about that....Brady is overrated. In my opinion the Jets should be starting Clemens and until they do then they won't win much
Another brilliant insight. Let me ask you...How pathetic must your life be to be a fan of a team of the Colts level and yet feel the need to troll the boards of a team struggling like the Jets? What's the matter need a confidence boost because you didn't get any last night?
Thanks man,I love you too I think its a pretty good poll, since its so damn close. I really want to see what people feel in NY since I got a comment on my blog yesterday saying that the Giants are heavily favored in talent, included Eli....I found that comment laughable btw welcome to the site, a little late
thats funny, I didnt see Peyton's name in here, did you google the word Manning and this is where it took you? Yes we all know he is God, now run along little boy
