    How good can Eli be?

    I know he has only put a few decent games together but he looks like the real deal. he looks great in the pocket and with some confidence he will be a precision passer. The guys at the pub were saying he is going to be better than Payton. I dont see the Venus Williams collpase in the future thoguh.

    Im actually looking to bet against the Giants tonight. Look for an inflated line with all the hype and for the sharps to bet it back to reality.

    I am not sold on Giants yet. Manning has looked ok but a lot of his passes were so close to being picked off . We have to wait a little longer but he has looked better than I thought.

    Considering his last name and pedigree...he could be very good!

    This offensive output he is displaying is a mirage. Consider the quality of the teams in Arizona, New Orleans, and STL (all of whom will not be going to the playoffs) and his lousy game against SD.

    I still need the rest of the year to make a decision on him...but w/o much doubt the guy has the talent and could very well be a future MVP and QB legend.

    I don't think he will ever be as good as his brother but still pretty darn good. Maybe as good as his Dad?

    Fair enogh Senator. I supose there is a lot you could do with Brick. Please excuse the booz.

    John, I dont know how you can compare a 6'10 basketball player with a QB. Danny was decent until he busted his knee thouhg.

    I don't think Burress makes as big of a difference as Shockey does. Shockey is to Eli what Alge Crumpler is to Michael Vick. He's not only his favorite target but also a security blanket.

    Doesn't "burros" mean donkey, en espanol. Me thinks you're getting a little confused there JJ.

    Let there be no doubt, this kid can play.

    There pappy Archie was pretty good too! If you thought Fran Tarkenton was a scrammbler you haven't seen the real original scrammbler. Archie could be at mid field and at times he would run all the way back to the goal line and back to the 50 to throw a 6 yard pass.

    The Mannings all have choke in them and that is why they will never be big winners.
