what does Manning do that year that Rivers couldn't have done? -- nm - mr. average Mar 31, 10:01 17
- The Tyree play alone answers that. -- nm - David Mar 31, 10:01 15
  - That wasn't a good throw, and Rivers throw one of the best high passes in the NFL. - Inigo Mar 31, 10:07 2
    - It's not the throw, it's even getting the ball in the air. Rivers has no ability to do that. - David Mar 31, 10:09 1
      - I don't see why not. I've seen Rivers get away from a pass rush then throw a ball on the run while someone else was in his face. - Inigo Mar 31, 10:20
  - I don't think that's a symbol of Manning or Rivers or Brady or anything other than fates alone. - Will Hunting Mar 31, 10:05 11
    - I fully agree with that but it's representative of Eli vs. Rivers in its own way. - David Mar 31, 10:08 10
      - I'll say this.....I'll take Rivers; you take Eli. I'll content myself with the better QB. - Will Hunting Mar 31, 10:10 9
        
        And I'll content myself that the opposition thinks they have the better QB when they clearly don't. -- nm - David Mar 31, 10:17
        
        So with the SB on the line, and the offence *NEEDING* a touchdown, Eli didn't do anything to make that happen. Gotcha. -- nm - Shaun Mar 31, 10:15 7
        
        That isn 't even close to what I said. You give Peyton, Brady, Rothlisberger, any of them that play set...it doesn't happen - Will Hunting Mar 31, 10:20
        
        That's not what Will (nor anyone here) has said. (nm) - musubi Mar 31, 10:17 5
        
        "while Osi/Strahan et al did the heavy lifting." -- nm - Shaun Mar 31, 10:21 4
        
        That doesn't equate to "Eli did nothing" in any way shape or form. (nm) - musubi Mar 31, 10:24 1
        
        Really, the Pats scored 14pts; lowest of the year a month after vs the same team, they'd hung 30+ on them. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 31, 10:25
        
        They held *that* offense to 14pts. That's heavy lifting. -- nm - Will Hunting Mar 31, 10:22 1
        
        Well they still needed to score points against the 4th ranked D. - Shaun Mar 31, 10:28
- Get the team to like him. -- nm - Dano Mar 31, 10:01
Even if they take Shawne Merriman like the Chargers did? -- nm - Reagen Mar 31, 10:00 1
- No, because Rivers is still pyrite. -- nm - David Mar 31, 10:01
