would somebody please enlighten me as to why everyone thinks this kid is so good??? aside from his name, i don't see anything. somebody needs to realize that tiki barber is the reason they made it to the playoffs. kinda makes him look foolish (more so than he already was) for holding out on san diego... what a waterhead.
Jason White did beat him out for almost, if not all the major college awards. Musta been a reason or two.
He also DOMINATED Eli's stats. Actually, statistically speaking Jason had one of the best seasons in the history of College Football, in that 2003 season.
true, but now manning has more talent than white did. and i'm still unimpressed. sorry, i just don't see it.
he's also facing defenses that White didn't. I'm starting to catch on around here. Everybody sucks that wasn't a former Sooner
Oh..trust me I realize Tiki had a hella good season. I had Tiki on my fantasy football lineup every week except the Giants bye week. He's the main reason I made it to my fantasy leagues Super Bowl game. If it weren't for Tiki..Eli wouldn't have posted near the stats that he had this year. I had Peyton Manning as my starter and used him every week but the Colts' bye week. I dropped Aaron Brooks early in the season and picked up Eli Manning as my backup QB after he had a stellar performance against somebody. But Eli still seems awfully inconsistent at this point in his career. I had to use Eli in my Super Bowl and I contribute my loss to Eli and the fact that had the Colts remained undefeated I could have used Peyton in the super bowl.
Its just like the real world a little help goes along way. Sims, manning they will have to prove the can't play White had to prove he could.
If his last name was Jones he probably wasn't a first round draft pick. He's an average QB at best IMO.
