ELI DOES IT

For a man who has gone through his football playing life as “Archie’s Other Son”, or “Peyton’s Younger Brother”, Eli Manning has quietly transformed into an elite NFL Quarterback. Once thought to be an over-rated quarterback who relied heavily on name recognition, Eli is now enhancing the legacy of football’s first family. On a night that was supposed to celebrate the opening of “Jerry Land”, Eli spoiled the mood by doing what he has done continuously since the 2007 playoffs. He has one of the league’s most lethal combinations of athleticism, elusiveness, football IQ, and clutch performance capabilities, and at this rate it won’t be long before the Colt’s QB starts being known as “The Other Manning”.

  1. Interesting insight but I believe that One Super Bowl Win does not a Legend Make. He still has a look of a Deer In the Headlights when pressured. This season will go a long way to showing his character and if he can bring the team back to a Super Bowl Visit. I would still hold off calling Peyton the other Manning!
