I wouldn't say horrible.  He's been above average in an era where above average QBs don't win Super Bowls off their rookie contract.  It would be like Jared Goff or Kirk Cousins winning 2 Super Bowls now
didn't Eli lead the league in interceptions like 4 times? I don't know man, I never thought Eli was very good at all. And often times he played terrible. Definitely wasn't the kind of player you'd expect a #1 overall pick to be like his brother was. 

Goff is better than Eli was imo. Just doesn't have the hardware. Yet. :)

Eagles have been consistently good, made a few Super Bowls and won one. Redskins have pretty much always sucked. Cowboys have been good with Romo and Dak but always getting bounced first round of the playoffs.

Giants have pretty much sucked every year except for those two seasons where that gump Eli went all rain main in the post-season and beat the greatest QB/coach in NFL history. Twice. One of those seasons he dethroned the greatest team the NFL has ever seen imo with the flukiest luckiest play in NFL history.

Eli Manning has by far the weirdest career in NFL history. He was absolute mediocre ass to even downright horrible but he has those two insane improbable incredible post-season runs and Super Bowl wins over the greatest QB, greatest coach, and greatest dynasty in sports history.
Yankees. Canadiens. 
U RAH RAH! WIS CON SIN!

Missed most of last night's game with a stupid, useless, coulda-been-an-email back to school night. Caught about the last 7 minutes (thankfully it was weather delayed).

Hell of a final drive there... If Likely had clipped his toenails that morning, it coulda been epic!

was talking the Josh Allen era. Bills have been on the cusp so many times only to have the Chiefs block them.
And yeah the Bills made it before, but that was ancient history. kinda like the Cowgirls making the Super Bowl :)
Detroit Lions fans throwing shade at the Cowboys for not getting into the Superbowl is one way to go, I guess...

Remind me-- how many Superbowls has Detroit been in?



ESPN should thank Eli Manning.  He's the main reason the NFC East has been relevant in Super Bowl history in the past 30 years.  Granted you wouldn't know it from their coverage

And yet the NY Giants fans I know absolutely hate him.  Really strange.

Baker looks anywhere from the 9th-13th best QB in the league. If the Browns were paying him 30M/year right now they'd be a very good football team.

Dobbins is just crazy talented. I saw him take over games when Lamar was hurt. Low key excellent pickup, hope he stays healthy.

 Gave DAK a new contract it seems to be working. Give Watson more than that and....ah forget it - another dagger in the heart of Cleveland sports fans

I've always kinda liked the Browns.  Not today of course, but in general, I like 'em.
