Re: QBs under pressure

I am going with Eli he was the number the pick and has not worked out. Plus he is a huge media city. he is under the most pressure.

Re: QBs under pressure

I have to agree with you Bears, its the fact that the pressure is can he win? Can he take this to another level, can do his job and get a chance to go to the Superbowl we all know is what any team out of a first rounder where the Giants took the risk and went for Eli instead of Philip, its now the time that he has to pick his game up soon and make some strides to a Superbowl or its times up for Eli in NY.

Re: QBs under pressure

I picked other, thinking of McNabb simply because I think both Eli and Rex are under pretty much the same pressure. (I'm not a Rex hater bears, but I think Grossman was darn lucky to have the defense he did. Otherwise, that team would have went nowhere.)
Romo is under pressure only in that if he doesnt play well this season, his contract will show it.

Re: QBs under pressure

Eli...it's New York...he is a first overall pick...he is a Manning...roll it all together and no matter what the man does he will be under pressure.

Re: QBs under pressure

Gotta agree with the Manning and McNabb contingent, but how about I throw in a dark horse here too in Ben Roethlesberger. The dude wanted a coach who was going to throw more. He got it. He's fresh off a lousy season. Think there isn't a lot of pressure on him to perform?

From what I saw of him at the HOF game, he is going to be ok. He had a lot of health issues last year. It takes a while to work thru them, especially the head injury.

Exactly. I mean, I think he needs to do more than play well. Will the way he ran his mouth about Cowher, I think he needs to prove that he can be a Top 10 quarterback now that he's got the kind of system he wants.

Re: QBs under pressure

as long as McNabb can stay healthy he willl be just fine.....but staying healthy has proven to be an issue....if he gets hurt again all of a sudden that Kevin Kolb pick becomes a smart pick

Roethlesberger is definetly under some pressure as well....he has to have a good year....the only benefit he has is that they dont have a good back up quarterback that could step in....Yes Charlie Batch is okay but i would think if your going to put a backup in there for him you would want to put a guy in there that can develop and get familiar with the recievers and the system to eventually overtake Ben...I dont see Batch doing that.

Eli is definetly under the most pressure of any other quarterback in the league....He has never lived up to #1 pick standards....not even top 10 pick standards....he is also in New York where fans have high standards if you dont live up to those you will be bood....Very loud.

How much pressure can he be under? Dallas passed on Brady Quinn...would love to have seen them take Brady...but no...they passed...
