have been greatly exaggerated.
in the NFL, theyre all real.Can we see how he does against a real team first?

As a Cowboy fan I would definitely trade places. It must be an interesting experience to have a QB that is generally unspectacular, but put together two fantastic runs and won when it mattered most. Manning has earned a pass for his mediocrity, which isn't unfair. It's almost the opposite of what Cowboy fans have with Romo.The winning two Super Bowls was just a perk.

We are.Pay close attention to those that think Eli is a good QB and remember them when having future discussions on this board
You don't have to sell me on Manning, but give me a break with the numbers. You can't compare today's passing stats to the past. Can you imagine the numbers guys like Marino and Fouts would have in today's NFL?KaiserUEO said:We are. You guys do realize that when Eli retires: - he will he have over 50,000 YDs joining only Favre, Peyton, Marino, Brees, Elway and Brady. - he will have over 350 TDs, joining only Favre, Peyton, Marino, Brees and Brady. - he will have 2 SuperBowls, joining only Starr, Griese, Bradshaw, Staubach, Plunkett, Montana, Aikman, Elway, BigBen & Brady. And maybe 1 of the other regulars season playstation nation heros will join. He's already got the hardware, the end stats will make him a slam dunk, 1st ballot inductee. Comical. Not sure what he has to do. Go ahead, don't start him on your fantasy team, nobody gives a shlit.

He will never catch Favre and maybe not Peyton.And a titanic full of interceptions. You forgot that part.
The point is...that even in this era...he will be amongst the tippy top.You don't have to sell me on Manning, but give me a break with the numbers. You can't compare today's passing stats to the past. Can you imagine the numbers guys like Marino and Fouts would have in today's NFL?
Can we talk about how the backstreet boys will be in the rock & roll hall of fame next?
