heydave76 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I have no choice but to vote for Roethlisberger. Anything else would just be sour grapes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildcat2334 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 funny shiiit- why not- ginormous win for Pitt- amazing also conisdering they were using Indy fans in the replay booth as well. Roth is a stud- his tackle on Bettis fumble was a hell of a play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

giantsfan Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Obviously right now I'd take Ben. BUT I still say for their careers I'd rather have Eli. We shall see in 8-10 years I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dirty Sanchez Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 People still voting for Eli. 1267971[/snapback] You obviously are basing your opinion only on current value and the fact that the Steelers are a better team than the Giants. So, why wouldn't people vote for Eli if they were looking at the entire career? Personally, I could see the Eli/Ben comparisons looking like Peyton/Brady in a few years. Eli with the better stats, but Ben with a ring or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

'canes2004 Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Ben plays on the superior team and has an offense perfect for a young QB. Little Manning has the skills but needs more time and a few more weapons around him to flourish. I think both QB's will find success in the NFL. This poll could be re-visited in the next couple of years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Front Row Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Kinda unfair to judge mini Manning on 1 playoff game, no? He 'll have more chances to prove himself good or bad in the future me thinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiki Barber, Jeremy Shockey, Amani Toomer, and Plaxico Burress aren't considered weapons? After yesterday, I don't want anyone named Manning on my team.

I'm a Giants fan too, Robash. The fact is that Ben has had a better start to his career mainly because he has been on Superbowl caliber teams his first few years in the league since he was drafted late in round 1 by a team that already had most of the pieces to the puzzle. On the flip side, Eli was put into a situation where the Giants were in a rebuilding mode and was far away from being Superbowl caliber. The fact that he led a one of the worst teams in the league the previous season to an 11-5 record and a division title in his first full year as a starter is more impressive I think than Ben leading an already great team to the playoffs his first two seasons.

giantsfan Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 (edited) Why do so many people forget that the Steelers were 6-10 the season prior to Ben taking over ???? 1269493[/snapback] Look we all know you love Ben, and NO DOUBT he has been clearly more successful thus far between the 2, I mean he has led his team to 2 straight AFC title games, but you can't make any firm statements after 20 or so starts. That is not fair. The one place we WAY disagree is the teams around them. Yes Pitt was better than most thought last year but they were looked at as a good playoff level team. Meanwhile the Giants were looked at as pretty much awful last year and at best a 7 win team this year yet they won 11 with Eli. My only point is we need to stop discussing this on a week to week or month to month basis. This needs to be tabled for a few years and then looked at again. Again 20-25 starts doesn't make Ben or Eli better. I can say Eli won 11 games with a team projected for 7 or 8 wins and he threw 24 TD's, but it doesn't matter in comparing the 2 right now. That is for another day and time down the road. Edited January 16, 2006 by giantsfan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randall Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 Many experts thought Ben was the best QB before the draft. He is big, thletic, moves well, has a strong arm, is smart, but we will have to see in 10 who is best. But why bother? Both teams got what they wanted.

Duchess Jack Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I've heard it rumored that Ben is a Dik.... and Eli is a little lady dog... classic debate between big Megan Fox and turd sandwhich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caveman_Nick Posted January 16, 2006 Share Posted January 16, 2006 I will always click Eli. If Eli is hit by a bus tomorrow and lives his life out as a vegetable being fed theough a straw, I will still pick him. Why? Because it is fun to do so. A high pitched whirring sound goes off in my head every time I click that button! maybe I should have that checked... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
