Exactly. It must be driving him crazy today that he looked so poor in front of a national audience.

Yep. Someone like Romo or Eli are used to it, but Griffin hasn't really known failure yet. I just hope he can still play smart and not let his competitiveness cloud his judgment and decision-making.

Think of the big picture, Griff. We need you for 16 games, not just 4 quarters in Week 2.

I'd take Eli over a bunch of QBs in the NFL. The guy is clutch in the 4th and they would have won if Scott catches that screen

GB is missing their starting LT (Bulaga) and if I'm not mistaken another starting OL. Our DL will do well against them as will RGIII, he seems to have shed most of the rust in the 2nd half. The skins will be more prepared than week 1.

If Orakpo doesn't make a significant impact against a backup LT, I would be concerned. I've contended that while Rak is a superior athlete, Kerrigan is the superior playmaker, and more worthy of a big contract when the time comes.

Eli Manning is a turnover machine; he leads the league in turnovers since 2010. The two Super Bowl wins were because of great plays by WRs. And the two Super Bowl MVP awards are because Eli is a quarterback(albeit a mediocre one).RG3>Eli!

Agreed.

Many have proclaimed that Eli is a top-five quarterback in the NFL and has already reached elite status. While Manning's status is in question, I think we all can agree that Tom Brady is an elite quarterback - no matter how much you dislike the guy - and before we go any further, let's take a peek at some numbers. Manning is 69-50 as a starter and Brady is 124-35. Yes, I know that Tom Brady has played in 40 more football games, but that being said; he still has 15 fewer losses than Manning. Also Manning has a TD-INT ratio of 108-65, not bad for a good quarterback. Brady has a TD-INT ratio of 153-37, now that's elite status. In fact, not only Tom Brady, but also Aaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning, Drew Brees, Matt Ryan, Philip Rivers , and Tony Romo all have better passing stats since 2007 than Eli Manning does.

Yep, ask Joe Flacco how that award works.

Jacoby Jones got robbed.
