Nope, Eli is so much more Clutch than Peyton.
Peyton < Eli
At least for who is playing better currently...ELI is. Peyton had a LOT of letdown games this season.

Peyton has done more in his career, but currently, Eli is the better player IMO.
I have seen Eli dominate all year (except a couple games, some of which they had MAJOR injury problems), and I have seen Peyton have multiple Tony Romo-like games.

Agreed, their defense couldn't come up with big stops at the end, committed season-ending penalties, and missed multiple passes that were right on target.

I had the Colts, but don't mind seeing Peyton Manning gone from the playoffs. Although his annoying commercials will keep him in the game.

Colts defense played pretty well considering the bad field position they were in because of the lousy punts. They just tackle for shit. That's what beat them.

Eli is the better clutch QB, esp. against defenses that bring pressure often. He worked to become better at that.
Eli = Champion x 2 (soon to be)
Peyton = Schmuck with 1 ring.

If the Giants win this year Eli will have two rings. In my opinion QB's should be judged on their playoff success and not some meaningless 4th quarter TD thrown in a blow out.

Eli had a better year.
Plain and simple.
Yes, he has a lot of help from a very talented team...but he is certainly is the man for the job when it comes to running the team into another SuperBowl appearance.

Here's a nice little chunk of info:
Well, ponder this: Eli Manning is now a better quarterback than Peyton Manning. At the current rate, his career achievements will at least match, and perhaps surpass, his big brother's.
Four games into his fifth season, Eli is 44-30 as a starter and has a Super Bowl ring. At the same point in his career, Peyton was 35-35 and had not won a postseason game. In terms of passing stats, the two players are approximately the same. In terms of leadership, Eli won the Super Bowl in his fourth season with a team whose personnel was so undistinguished, not one of the 16 sets of expert predictions ESPN.com ran before the 2007 season even had the Giants making the playoffs, let alone winning the Super Bowl.

I not a big Peyton fan, feel that he doesn't come through in big games. I know he has a ring, but in my opinion it is because the Pats blew the AFC championship that year. Saying that he had a great year, Addai was banged up all year, and Peyton found away to pull out wins this year. I feel this was Manning best season, I dont care about TD's in blowouts, I care about making plays when your team needs too, in order to win.

I am not a Peyton fan in the least. i like Eli better. But lets not kid ourselves. Peyton is way better than his brother. Eli will not go to 9 Pro Bowls. Wont happen. Eli will not put up Peyton numbers. Ever. Thats just a fact. Lets not kid ourselves.

I agree that Eli does not have Peyton's numbers, but also Eli will never be put in a situation to have big numbers with the construction of the Giants offense around their running backs.

Peyton failed to score the last 3 full drives vs. one of the worst passing defenses in the league. The great qb's in our lifetime are Joe Montana, John Elway, and Tom Brady. Peyton is not in that league from a championship standpoint. The Bears gave away that Super Bowl and he won't win another. Eli has a better chance at Super Bowl #2 in my opinion. He can win on the road in big games unlike his brother. All in my armchair opinion of course.

Yes, he did have a better year but as you said, he looks good because he has talent around him. What would Eli be like without his offensive line or Brandon Jacobs? Just those two things alone open up so much for him. I still don't think he's that great of a QB. Plus, the NYG defense isn't that bad either. When Eli does make mistakes, I think he has the luxury of his defense bailing him out. The same cannot be said for Peyton. IMO, I just think Eli was put into a great situation.

Peyton is lucky to have won his one ring, because he's not getting another. Imagine the criticism he'd be getting today if he didn't win that one title. The Colts are on their way down, and will plummet once Dungy bails and Caldwell takes over.

T, I doubt you are going to convince anybody (except for a Giants fan) that Eli had a better year than Peyton. Peyton was hands down better than Eli in every category (not only stats mind you). If you asked anybody today, if you take the Giants team minus the quarterback, who would you rather plug into the starting spot, Eli or Peyton, I believe 85% would say Peyton. Eli is not clutch. He didn't win them their Super Bowl, and when he is rushed he looks like his brother circa 2002. Talk to me if Eli wins a couple of playoff games this year. If the Jints lose their next game, this tread becomes completely moot. Peyton has a track record, Eli has got a couple of good games. This does not equate. FYI I am NOT a Peyton fan..lol.

So Eli gets a mulligan for having injured players on his team, but Peyton doesn't...lol. You do understand that the Giants won most of their games this season on their ability to run. Any decent team they beat (which weren't many) were won on the legs of their running backs, not on Eli's arm.

I totally agree. He's also nothing without Brandon Jacobs. If teams force Eli Manning to beat them with his arm, he can't do it.

Eli threw so many hail mary's last year that were caught by Plexico and the miracle catch in superbowl, he is ok but no where near a great QB
