| Re: Eli Manning's 6-Year, $97.5 Million Extension One of NFL's Biggest Deals I obviously am not going to respond to each point. Is Eli worth that kind of money? No. He obviously has to prove he can do it without Burress, but with the young core of receivers they have, I believe he can do it. 2) improve red zone efficiency- too many damn short fg's last year. The play-off game against the Eagles, 3 FG's, 2 missed FG's. Get 2 of those into the endzone and you are not in desperation mode in the 4th quarter. 3) Pass in the wind at the Meadowlands. The game against the Skins 2 years ago (although the play calling was the bigger problem), both eagles games last season. Watching Mike and Mike in the morning. They have Kuselias and Herm Edwards on. Talking about Eli's contract and Kuselias named a bumch of QB's to ask Herm who he'd rather have. Brady, Peyton, McNabb, Big Ben, Brees, Palmer and so on. Named about 15 QB's. It was 50-50 whether he'd take Eli or the other guy. Funny thing is, Campbell wasn't even mentioned. As for the Giants D, you people are ridiculously under estimating the talent the Giants have and you will see it come Sept 13th.

Eli is better than JC, but that still doesn't mean I'd want him on the Skins. He's a wanker and a baby. He doesn't even look like a football player. He just looks like a kid on Halloween. Also, the only thing you can credit Eli with regarding the Superbowl win is about two plays where he managed to avoid what looked like an inevitable sack. That's all.

| Re: Eli Manning's 6-Year, $97.5 Million Extension One of NFL's Biggest Deals I guess you can't read very well, ghetto. I have already said the Super Bowl was a full team effort, and rambled off about 7 guys who could have also been the MVP. I have never in my life said, Eli won that game for the Giants. Yes, they do have the best OLine, who do you think is better? As for the D, they only team that anyone with a brain can argue is better is Pittsburgh and the Giants beat them in Pittsburgh last year. Although the Steelers winning it all trumps that.

I doubt anyone is underestimating the Giants D and if they are well then it is a very biased/rivalry-based opinion. As I said in my long a$$ post in another thread, the Giants and Redskins are pretty equal due to changes in the offseason (Giants off losses, Redskins def acquisitions); however given the homefield they will have in the first game, it would not surprise me if they win. However, I think it will be a low scoring/defensive battle.

| Re: Eli Manning's 6-Year, $97.5 Million Extension One of NFL's Biggest Deals The Chargers won't let him sniff the open market, but if they did and the Skins were in need of a QB, watch out. |

| Re: Eli Manning's 6-Year, $97.5 Million Extension One of NFL's Biggest Deals I feel that Rivers is worth more than Eli, but I cannot see SD one upping NY. Rivers will get paid in the same ballbark, but no more. |

| Re: Eli Manning's 6-Year, $97.5 Million Extension One of NFL's Biggest Deals This is the downside to the deal for us. Not that I think we're SB bound but if Campbell comes out and has a career year then we're screwed contract-wise. This kind of deal blows up the current scale. everyone in the league knows it's a crap contract for an average player but agents will parlay it into major deals for every other half-baked to good QB in the league. |

| Re: Eli Manning's 6-Year, $97.5 Million Extension One of NFL's Biggest Deals Especially after choosing Rivers over Brees. My bet is, they extend during the season. And they should. More interesting things is, what if JC has a decent season. Do we sign during the season? Are the bridges burned? I think the JC watch as far as if he plays well and his future is an interesting scenario to unwrap.

![]() I think it's great that you recognize Eli wasn't the cause for the win. Now I know you're not as crazy as I thought. Anyways, that was just a statement and nothing else really. So, at first it was best D and O-line, and now it's just best O-line and maybe best D? The Steelers, Ravens and Eagles were all better defenses last year, and the Cowboys have better talent, they just don't know how to use it. As for the O-line, you're pretty good, but I think the Pats are better. And, maybe a couple other teams like the Saints and Cardinals. It's hard to argue the best of the best, and you're O-line is among them. You're saying you have the best O-line and best D in the league, which basically means you have the best team in the league. C'mon dude, get real.
