ehhh he might not be elite, but he's great. Him and Roethlisbeger to me are in the same category...great QB surround by good talent who are clutch. They get the job done period. Cant ask for much more.

Eli Manning has a lowly 82.6 career QB rating. He has won 2 Super Bowls, but his statistics are not on par with the better quarterbacks in the NFL. Ben Roethlisberger has a 92.7 career QB rating and has also won 2 Super Bowls. Phillip Rivers, who also was drafted in the same draft and the same round as the two mentioned QBs, has a 95.0 career QB rating.

Eli Manning is very good. I won't say that he isn't. But he isn't elite or great. But I don't consider elite or great as going up against a 32nd ranked defense in the Super Bowl and coming from behind to win it.
