Surprised Eli didn tell him to refuse to play for the team that drafted him and force us to trade him to a team he likes 

Oh wait, his last name isn't manning so it probably won't work 

i think the chargers got the better end of that deal, tbh, they just didn’t do anything with it because their GM was an idiot.

At the end of the day, the Giants ended up with two rings and Eli played his ass off on both of those runs. I don't think there's any debate in hindsight. The Giants won.

i expect if you swap rivers and eli, the teams would have performed pretty much the same, though the helmet catch may never have happened. then imagine how nasty the giants would have been with shawnee merriman in their defense too.

the giants were a better coached team and a better run franchise. that’s what won them their superbowls. rivers + merriman >>> eli. the chargers won the trade.

You draft players to win Super Bowls. Eli led the Giants to two championships. The Chargers never even got to a Super Bowl. The Giants clearly won the trade. How is this even a debate?

because if you swap the players, the giants still win. they didn’t win because of eli. rivers was easily as good as, if not better than eli. giants won because of being a better run team, not because of eli. 

the trade was eli vs rivers + merriman. there is a clear winner there. rivers + merriman >>> eli. that was the trade. chargers got the better end of the trade.

There is a big difference, no pun intended, between the 80's and now.

if it was like the 80's right now no QB would last a second on the field much less be left alive after a hit/tackle and their career would be over after the first game no matter what protective gear they had on. Or preseason if they played.

    • The new (released today) FOX ONE app will allow you access to watch your Local FOX Station - similar to how the Paramount Plus app allows you access to watch your local CBS station It'll cost you $20/month for the privilege, but if you're having trouble accessing the over-the-air antenna for FOX, this could be an option to consider the new ESPN app will give you access to ESPN content, but not to the local ABC affiliate. A reminder: if you currently get ESPN via some TV provider (cable, satellite, youtube, etc) then you should be able to use the new ESPN app via your provider login, no additional payment required
    • Not even close!!! BURNS was a one trick pony who had a big game or two a year in the sack collum and was invinsible the rest of the time....   Heck hes gonna be the Giants fourth best rusher this year.
    • XL went to one of the worst teams in the NFL.  One that features a weak passing O and bad overall QB play on the season.   XL is getting way too much hate IMO.   He had an okay rookie season all things considered.   Very much on par w/ prospects that projected around the same area with him.   Panthers made a 2nd rounder a first round technicality for that contract.  XL also getting this weird kicker type blame for games.  XL somehow single handedly lost us games on one play.....and then we ignore the rest of the team that went about losing the game for 4 quarters.   Should he of caught the Philly ball? 100%.  The O and D still played like garbage that entire game.  Even after the drop, Panthers had two shots starting w/ a 3rd and 4 to convert.  They kept playing bad instead.  And even if we XL made the play....Philly would have had a minute and half to get into FG range to win it.  Who is banking on the Panther D getting that stop?  also, I am deemed Mr. Negative, yet here I am defending a no good dirty Gamecock lol
