Rosen vs Eli Manning

[kerouac9]

The gulf between rating 103 and ~87 is too huge to be only attributable to players around Kurt. Have to disagree.

Really? Warner is going to have four Hall of Famers ON OFFENSE with him for that Rams Super Bowl Run. I think he'll have a couple of Pro Bowlers, but it's not comperable to what Favre had.

He will based on the last name alone.

Hilarious to me when people say Eli should get in and Rivers shouldn’t.

HOF has never been strictly about rings and nor will it ever be.

Jim Plunkett is still waiting for a call.

Do you remember Marc Bulger with those teams? He made Kurt expendable...

Favre had stacked teams and brilliant coaching during his prime...

Eli’s weapons and coaching never came close to those two...

#1 life rule for you young ones out there, taught to me by my friend's father, and which I've continued to find true no matter where or what I did:

"Play (or work) with bums, and you will look like a bum.". The reverse holds just as true, if not more so.

I remember Bulger. One hell of an opening and then a huge drop off. He was no Kurt Warner.

One could only imagine what Warner could have accomplished if his talent was recognized sooner and he had more team stability throughout his career.

I think if you told this board 5-10 years ago that we would draft an Eli Manning clone, everyone would have fallen all over themselves to do it.

You're only as good as the 5 closest people you're around....Is it just a coincidence that the OL have 5 people? lol

I wouldn't have had an issue with that theory.. but 10 years ago we had the snail. This goes back to qbs and good/bad organizations.. they were smart to ask for the giants. We would have been the same. So Eli wouldn't had been Eli imo. Now, if we believe Keim can build a superb team like the giants had, then sign me up. I just don't have my hopes this high.. yet.
