I mean.. what a bust. And people are saying the Giants will be better without Tiki Barber.. what are they smoking? (you don't have to answer that one)

How would you perform in his shoes?
When your daddy's your uncle and your brother got every sexy gene they could muster (yikes), you'd be an underachiever, too.
Remember his draft. San Diego picked him and he was about to cry. Sickening.

He's actually the dissapointment to the Manning family.
Archie won a Heisman and was one of the best scramblers that couldn't succeed with a mediocre line.
Peyton holds the record for most TD in a season, has a Suoper Bowl ring and this season will pass Johnny Unitas in TD, Yards and Attempts (I'm not saying he's better that Unitas). But more important than numbers, he's the best ever I've seen calling out audibles.
Eli...he's never shown the potential Peyton did in his first seasons as a Colt and without Tiki Barber he will get punished by defenses, the fans and the media. It wouldn't surprise me if he's cut after this season.

Eli manning is a good QB, even though he makes some mistakes you got to keep in mind that it's not just him, but it's also the team that he's on that makes too many mistakes like when the O-line had too many false starts and holding calls, plus the O-line had 3 players injured for the entire season including the defense that had about 5 or 6 players missin'. So it's not just him it's also the team and I think they need to start doing some more power running so Eli don't have to throw the ball a lot only when it's necessary.

because of the fact all the communities that they have performed so some distance in the playoffs are overvalued. To be common, they are fortunate they even made it this some distance. The Cowboys performed like crap, however the Giants slightly squeaked out a win. Now that they get to play a real group, Eli would be uncovered as an overvalued QB.

Thats funny Eli = Danny DeVito!!!!!!!
I think that if Eli hadnt had a big brother breaking every passing record in the NFL and the scouts would have looked at him based just on his playing skills in college then he would have never been taken #1 nor would he be a starter in this league.

Man I'm glad somebody agrees with me, I hated him the day he's the #1 pick because he didn't want to play for the CHARGERS, you should be glad you get to play in the NFL it's a privilege my man. I want his career to tank cause he thinks he's the man I'm Eli, Phyton younger brother. And he'd proved by stinking up the joint in NY.

2 1/2 seasons as a starter...
2 playoff appearances.
20 wins.
1 division title.
2 seasons of 20+ TD passes.
If you're not a Giants fan, don't worry about him.

I agree with cotton sucking is nothing new to the manning family. I think they need a box of tissues never mind a football in their hands.

he just makes poor decisions and look really bad because his bro just doesnt make them. he's not a great ab but a capable starter. i mean i'd take him over rex grossman. and as for them being good next year well thats just crazy they should be in the running for a top ten pick next year
