This was so retarded that I was laughing out loud and when I saw you say:

its a valid statement. i would take a super bowl winning QB (eli) over a playoff loser like Romo. dont just say my statement is retarded and don't give an explanation to why its a retarded statement. you sound 12 when you say that.if eli wasn't in new york, i think a lot of people would say hes one of the most overrated QBs in the NFL. not hated and thought to be overrated as much because he's on such a large stage in ny. he is a top ten QB in the nfl and i would love to have him on the niners. but i wouldnt mind having romo since smith is a joke.

So you think Trent Dilfer is a better QB than Dan Marino?

In no particular order:RodgersBreesBrady Manning VickRiversBig BenSchaubRomoMatt RyanI think that is the clear top 10 (in some order) and I think Eli is probably just a cut below there with Flacco and Freeman.

Your statement was retarded.

no. i wouldn't apply that logic to all QBs in the past. i actually think Romo is one of the most overrated QBs in the NFL. he can put up numbers but he's far from a leader. but trent has one thing dan doesnt have, and thats a ring. as sad as that is.

brvheart, i bet you would take kyle orton over peyton manning too.

That's because your statement makes no sense whatsoever. Do you realize how irrelevant a ring is to how good a QB is? Peyton Manning wasn't a better QB the day after he won a superbowl than the day before he won it.

*eyeroll*I'm not even going to put in the effort on this one.

yeah it makes sense. let me rephrase my original statement.Romo is not a leader, he is overrated and shys away from the big moments. Eli has proven to be more clutch. thats why i would take Eli over Romo. forget the superbowl argument.

In eli's defense, New York is one of the most difficult places to be an effective passer because of the crazy winds at the meadowlands. I don't know about the new stadium, but I know the old one had just insane cross winds, so his passing numbers at home were severely effected.

I like Eli and would put him in my top 10 if he didn't miss high so often. It's terrible as a QB to miss high because it invariably leads to tons of INTs. Just look at Eli's numbers last year....tons of yards and tons of TDs but sooooooo many picks. Just an absurd amount because when he makes a bad throw it is always too high.Agree that the old Meadowlands was a very tough place to throw though.

lets slide matt cassell in there right after brady and brees and manning.

Giants don't look right, do they? Something's off. By the way, do you think Archie Manning called Peyton's sponsors this month and had this exchange with them?Archie: Hey, I was just wondering — it would be weird if Peyton did ads for you guys, what if we slid Eli in there this year and he did the ads instead?Sponsor: Ah, jeez … well … um … let us get back to you on that … "

And are in last place with a QB who has been hurt the last two games. Division looks wide open to me.

It is but I still think Dallas is the 3rd best team in the division. Philly imploding would be fine by me tho.
