An extension on his current deal which has 1 year left... So his contract now will be 7 years 106 million.

His career passer rating is 76.1.

QBs with a higher rating include: Byron Leftwich, Jake Delhomme, Jason Campbell, among many others.

Tim Couch and Patrick Ramsey have career passer ratings less than 2 points lower than Eli's.

I'd like to think that WINNING is alot more important than the QB rating stat but if ppl really want to get stuck up on career QB rating than would that mean Daunte Culpepper was a better quarterback than the likes of Dan Marino and John Elway? All Eli has done for us in New York is win...4 straight playoff appearances including a super bowl title with him as MVP, not to mention he is coming off a pro bowl year and has been an iron man for us. His yearly salary is now on the level of Matt Shaub and Cassel's and the 35mill guarentee'd is much less than Stafford and even Suggs received.

Were the Giants winning because of Eli?

next to Vick & Favre, he has to be the most overrated QB of all time

Fixed.. :P

Eli still has a ton of critics so I can't call him overrated to that extent though. Everyone knows by now that I like the kid, and IMO there's no denying he is:

a) A big reason they made the playoff run they did in 07 (SB performance was ehhh though, not bad not great, he made a few timely plays, no doubt, but had some big time luck on his side on quite a few)

B) One mentally tough SOB which I respect BIG BIG TIME

c) Not an elite QB by ANY definition of the word or stretch of the imagination (but I don't think teams need elite QBs to be successful)

Since taking the starting job over the Giants have gone 41-23 so he must have been doing something right....and yes I would have to say he was one of the main factors behind our Superbowl run.

4 years prior to Eli we were 27-37...

Great.

The Panthers are 51-32 in games with Jake since 2003.

The 4 years prior they were 23-41.

Based on those stats Jake is a winner, but I'd still be pissed if he got a contract that averaged $15 million a year. And yes, Jake is older than Eli, but he has only been the starting quarterback for 2 seasons more than him.

i remember back in the day when all you had to do was get in his face a little and he would freak out...

I think some of those fears are still there, his protection has just gotten better.

he still does that, you just got to hit him early in the game...and i mean wax his ass and he is poo the rest of the game

Ofcourse you would be pissed but last I checked Jake isn't Superbowl MVP coming off a probowl season...not to mention Jake is 34 and Eli is 28. I honestly have no idea why people are upset about this..this happens almost every year. We gave up ALOT to get him and he is our FRANCHISE quarterback...and compared to what the rookies are getting I think Eli deserves it, what was our other option? Let him hit free agency? Because im sure he would have seen more than 35M guarenteed in there.

      The Ringer NFC Offseason podcast

      The division is most certainly wide open. The Bucs are a problem but Baker Mayfield is and will remain his own worst enemy it's a matter of when not if he has a bad game or even a stretch of bad games. As far as the Panthers they have done an admirable job of trying to address needs as best they can without pulling a Scott Fitterer and getting desperate which has only made us worse off in the past. On the Bryce subject all anyone can really say at this point is we just have to wait and see. This is the year and despite what the Panthers may say publicly doubling down and going all in on WR is as good as any sign anyone should need that they expect Bryce Young to have a very productive and convincing season. The pieces are in place. They aren't perfect but nothing ever will be. Regardless there's honestly no excuse for this staff and this team not to be able to compete in this iteration of the NFC South. Also just want to say this because I can say the hyper defensive posts already being made in here and it's probably going to be a season with highs and lows again but hopefully more highs for sure. But just because there is dialogue about a position group or a player that challenges your preconceived notions or makes you uncomfortable does not make it "hate" or "anti" this player or that player. For some people who talk a lot about nuance you would think this wouldn't need to be stated but that's where we're at.

      We joke about how the NFL has a script for the season. But maybe it's not a joke?

      If I was a coach I would preach "Don't let the refs decide the game" because as soon as you let the NFL the chance to help their bottom dollar whether it be teams that make most money or gambling then they will screw the team that doesn't fit their bottom line......is it rigged? No but do they try and make certain narratives happen abso-freakin-lutley. As I stated in a previous thread NFL players are the ones that SHOULD have all guaranteed contracts but the boot lickers on this forum disagree and argue for the billionaires in this world who own these teams, sheep

      I wont go quite so far as to say games are rigged.  You wouldnt have to work hard to convince me there was the occasional thumb on the scale but outright rigged? nah.   but collusion on the rest of the "business" of football, sure.  No one really believes that the only time the 32 owners act as one is during the negotiations of the CBA do they?
