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.

      This is about getting open and YAC....and the QB we have.  You basically are just highlighting average depth when targeted vs 2 players. .  And yeah, I often say AT is a small slow reliable TE in terms of what he does for us.   That's what he is.   I think a couple of you want to make this into a Renfrow argument.   I'm a Renfrow fan.  Renfrow does not check the box of what a BY O needs either at the slot.  Renfrow just a niche roleplayer at this level.  it's easy to look up how horrific AT is with the ball in his hands and in terms of getting open.....and it's also easy to look up what a low ceiling of an offense the steady AT diet produces w/ BY.

      The one time he's actively tried to lose was the best we've ever done.

      I simply acknowledge BY is the QB.  And just like we did when we drafted him.....the type O you would need to setup around him for success was always pretty simple.  But we have done virtually the opposite.  XL dropping some passes isn't why we were ranked the 32nd O and 30th passing the past 2 years.  *Ricky Prohel was brought up only in regards to role function he served on the team.  Niche/specialist.   He wasn't eating up the snaps in the O.    AT should have a similar snap %. People could MAUL Ricky Prohel and put hands all over him.   We got to the Super Bowl in part because we were mauling guys (our slot CB).   You can't do that now.  AT has a MUCH easier life and still can't get open.  Or run.    If you live in 3 WR sets, with a weak armed QB, and you choose to put someone who can't get open or run in the slot.......well, your are going to have a weak pass O.  That's by design IMO.
