Message: [QUOTE="Alsacs, post: 3111166, member: 652"] Ballard tore his ACL in the SB46. That ruined his career nothing more. No team is loaded every year. As long as you have serviceable pieces that is all that can be expected. Eli at his best in the regular season was nowhere near the top of the QB performers in ANY SEASON. How does that make him one of the best of the best? Because his defense played out of its mind in 2 SBs Against the Patriots? I mean that 2011 Patriots team was the worst Patriots team to make a Super Bowl. Their nickel CB in the game was Julian Edelman. That entire team was rode Brady on offense and Vince Wilfork on defense. That defense was ranked 31st in the league and held Eli to 21 points in the SB. In 2007 the Patriots offense was held to 14 points. Justin Tuck, Osi Umenyiora Michael Stranhan, were the MVPs. Just like the defense carried Brady to 2 of his 6 SB. The first one and the last one. He won them the other 4. [/QUOTE]
