		<description><![CDATA[Eli is not Elite????? who&#039;s Elite, Brees, Rodgers, Brady????? Let&#039;s see, Brees went to San Fran last yr and got beat by Alex Smith in the Playoffs. San Fran then went on to say they Preferred to play Eli instead of Rodgers, So Eli went to GreenBay and beat Rodgers, then went to Frisco and beat them, then after saying he&#039;s as good as Brady, goes out and beats Brady in the SB rematch of the ages. I dnt kno wat else Eli needs to do to be Elite, but Eli is Elite in my eyes as only 5 QB&#039;s in NFL history won 2 SB MVP&#039;s, and Peyton, Brees, and Rodgers are not in that class.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Eli has to be the most maddening person i ever been a supporter of..just when hes on the cusp of being considered regular season greatness (playoff record needs not be debated) he finds someway to bring back the debate back in everyones mind. its been like that his whole career very inconsistant except last year. 
 eli is elite he just does it differently than rodgers, brees, and esp peyton.

2 rings 2 sb mvps.. im sure when everyone sits back and really thinks about it to themselves theyd take eli over 23-25 other qbs]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Elite QBs rarely have &quot;slumps&quot; - Eli&#039;s had years of &quot;meh&quot;. Then stretches of Elite play.
He had a monster season last year - then flubs up again for a period of time...

Compare that inconsistency to Brees/Rodgers;
Brees may look human for a game or 2 a season - other than that he&#039;s an Unstoppable Stat Monster.

Rodgers &quot;struggled&quot; early this year - a little inaccurate/A few turnovers/dropped passes - yet he still had several Touchdowns and a Good Passer Rating - oh by the way - he was up against Seattle/San Fran/Chicago &#039;s defenses to start the season.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[“Because when I hear the word elite, I’m thinking about guys that can make unbelievable plays on the field by themselves. There are very few quarterbacks in that category.&quot; 

 Eli has so many come from behind wins, and scores in the 2 min before the half..I think it gets overlooked... So while Brady, Rodgers, Peyton, are throwing picks  to end games they are trailing. Eli has been winning these games to the point it&#039;s routine.. Everyone expects him to come back and win, but forget how difficult it is to do. Eli is in a class by himself when the game is on the line and also the last 2 minutes of a half.. He is a flat out beast.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Manning is as elite as some other Super Bowl winning QB&#039;s... like Brad Johnson and Trent Dilfer.   Nobody should compare a guy like him to Carson Palmer, Tom Brady, Peyton Manning, Aaron Rogers, Philip River or other QB&#039;s that are truely elite ove rthe years.  Sure, Palmer and Rivers haven&#039;t had the success Eli has, but let&#039;s be real... no team outside of New York has the consistent talent that Eli has enjoyed year after year.  If switched Philip River and Eli Manning to opposite teams, Rivers would have at least 3 Super Bowls under his belt right now and would be without question a hall of famer.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Phil Simms. He&#039;s always making stupid comments like this. He&#039;s got to be the worst analyst in football. Shame, because Nantz is a good play by play caller, that is, when Phil isn&#039;t constantly talking. I was hoping that somehow Phil wasn&#039;t allowed back in the country after calling the London game. 

I wonder if Phil considers himself elite? I&#039;ll bet he does, even though he&#039;s got pretty much the same resume as Eli.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[&quot;Because if Eli Manning, winner of a pair of Super Bowl titles and MVPs, isn’t elite, it’s hard to know how many fit the definition, historically.&quot;

I think that Dan Marino, winner of ZERO SuperBowl titles, was elite.  Eli is not ... but somehow we often forget about football being a team game when it comes to winning titles.  Phil Simms is just realizing that he, like a lot of people, completely over-reacted to a guy winning a second Superbowl title and forgot that Eli is an inconsistent, streaky QB who has only ever led the league in one statistical category ... interceptions (and he&#039;s done that twice).]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Who ever decided that the term &#039;elite&#039; really meant anything? Take a look at Rodgers and Brees earlier this year they certainly weren&#039;t playing as &#039;elite&#039; QB&#039;s, yet their labels weren&#039;t in jeopardy. Are they very talented, most definitely YES. So is Eli. I don&#039;t understand why we have to label, quantify, and pigeon-hole these guys all the time. Eli happens to be the QB of my favorite team, I feel he is among the most talented in the NFL and whether he goes out and crushes the competition or stinks the joint up, he&#039;s still one of the best in the business. Why don&#039;t we just drop this elite term and just ask &quot;Is he worthy of going to Canton?&quot; If he is then there shouldn&#039;t be anything else to worry about.]]></description>

Eli’s 2 Super Bowl MVPs are bogus. He was far from the MVP in both games. It just goes to the quarterback by default…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Really loser, then how come plenty of other players have won the award that are not Qb&#039;s?  Get a grip there Bitter Bob, I mean who really cares anyway as long as you win the SB, which is the goal in the first place.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#039;ve been watching NFL for over 50 years and have seen many great QB&#039;s.  Eli is a really sound QB who still has time to get better, but he is more on the level of a Jim Harbaugh than a Johnny Unitas.  He&#039;s good enough to get the job done on a team with great players and coaching, just like Bob Griese was.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Darin...you are so RIGHT about the notion of professional talkers constantly debating and creating false conflict over mostly mind-numbing stuff. One of the reasons is the 24/7 &#039;news&#039; that we are bombarded with. One of the most laughable examples of this is on NFL Network: They have so much time to fill, that every other discussion is setting up some shallow comparison, so that they can then do the never-ending Point/Counter-Point mindless Cross-Fire Debate.]]></description>
