He didn't do shit for the 1st ring. Man's was a passenger riding in the truck bed. His performance in the 3rd is partially why they lost. He clutched up in the 2nd. I could make a claim Eli is more deserving going off playoff performances. Again most of that success was early and on the back of the defense. Brees and Rodgers were a lot more responsible for their teams success.
These numbers become more inflated as it becomes easier to pass. And as it did with all the weapons he had what did he get from it?
if you want to weigh his success early for his defense thats fair but you have to equal out his prime of 14-18 when his defense let him down. it matches out in the end.
you do realize he made every single one of those weapons and the steelers aren't just magically a time traveler with the list of the best WRS ever right? Who did the steelers add as a free agent in 20 years vs who left
didn't do shit for the first ring...? He turned a 6-10 team into a 14-0 team under his belt barely losing to Brady as a rookie, then lead a 6th seed throw the offs dropping 31 in the wild card and 34 in the afc champ of 275 and 2 Tds. in the actual superbowl ya ill give you that but truck bed is so far from the truth.
I don't care about who the NFL promotes. I've watched the games. Eli did more to earn his 2 rings, both against the boogy man himself.
This is crazy. He made Holmes, Plaxico, AB, Ward, Sanders, Wallace and whoever I missed? They're good at finding wr talent.
People need to stop with this BS. Give a mediocre across the board team the greatest guard to ever play in his prime and they're still lucky if they manage a playoff spot. Give them Rodgers, Peyton, or Brady in his prime and they have a real chance of winning their division. QB play is the single biggest decider in long term success of a team.
Qb play makes a huge difference but each case is different obviously.
I saw it live as I was at the stadium and it’s the hardest hit on a QB I’ve ever seen live.
I don't think he's first ballot, but he'll get in.
If you ain't Lomar you trash. lol
What does that have to do with big Jen?
Pretty sure we’ve heard some of that prior to his 2nd SB win. Lol
I think Suggs was better at his position than Ben was at his and don't necessarily think he should be first ballot. Top 10 all time in sacks, forced fumbles and 1st all time tackles for a loss. DPOY and 2 rings.
