Oh please with the notion that Peyton's weapons were worse. That argument is poo with anyone that knows anything about football.

defense is a weapon far more important than any individual receiver, and the colts D is and has been awful

harrison, wayne etc. are/were good receivers with a great QB

nicks is a great receiver with a good QB

Peyton in his prime vs Eli in his prime.

Thats a no brainer, peyton.

Both have good receivers, but the Giants have a much better running game and defense for the last few years.

Right now though, well since Peyton might never play again, that one is easy. :)

I think its a no brainer in the regular season. First 9 games head to head in the playoffs. Theres a legit argument.

Peyton is in the convo for greatest regular season QB ever.

Eli is only 2/3 of the QB that Peyton was

You have got to realize, unlike Peyton, who was given free reign to mold a team the way he wanted. Eli is part of a franchise with some history. Unlike his brother, Eli has to be part of that legacy and not try to re-invent the wheel with the Giants.

I always felt Eli was equal to his brother but it's clear who the media choose and Eli had to play second fiddle.

Im talking about two QBs head to head, not the teams.

And there is no way you can just say Harrison, Wayne, and Clark were just some guys and Peyton made them great. Did Joe Montana make Jerry Rice great? Did Aikman make Irvin?

You know it is possible to have a great receiver and a great QB right?

    • The entire OP is about the play calling and results and only mentioned T-Mac one time, in the sense of our offensive struggles only made me more frustrated about our #1 WR only getting a single 2nd half target in a game we were behind for the majority of it. How is that showing my true colors? It's way more of other people reading too much into it and thinking this is all and only about T-Mac for me, but it's not.  He just happens to be the player that I specifically was upset by his 2nd half usage, but it had nothing to do with my personal feelings towards him, but that he's our only legitimate WR and he had a single target in the 2nd half after going for 73 yards in the first. To me, that is a very legitimate play calling gripe, the win or particular player aside.
    • Dowdle looked great. Watching him made this game alot of fun.  
    • We’re stuck with Bryce for now.  He led TWO drives where we came from behind to take the lead. One of them was the winning drive and he threw the winning TD. Taken as a whole…he played at expectation after the 1st quarter. That’s not so bad under the circumstances.  We got the win. Maybe they’ll struggle to build on it but a win is a win. He drove the offense down and took the lead when it was needed. You can’t take that away from him.    We’re not changing QBs anytime soon.  Or owners.  So…when they win, we should take it at face value and give credit where it’s due.  Bryce came up big in clutch moments. You can’t take that away from him.
