Question Eli Manning...Upon Further Review.

I liked Eli last year for his first full year but...what if im wrong? What if instead of turning into Troy Aikman he turns into Joey Harrington? Well, lets look at what the experts are saying. Now I said EXPERTS so if any NFL coaches and players, current or past have stated some bad things about Eli's apparent inaccuracy problem or some good things such as his ability to muster a comeback then lets hear 'em. If its some collegeboy ESPN smarta$$ "sportscaster" or morons like the WFAN duo of Mike Fransceca and Chris Russo that has something outrageous to say to boost ratings...not interested. Only experts. Experts meaning people involved in the NFL as a coach or a player. What are they saying about Eli? Now if a football god like Dan Marino or John Elway had an opinion on Eli Manning...hell you could send that to my house Fed-ex!!! What about Boomer Esiason? He's usually got something to say. Lets take a closer look gentlemen, shall we?

Youre not helping Bat-Fan! See I knew it was a mistake for Superman to give Batman that machine gun full of Black Kryptonite bullets to use against him if Mr. Kent ever turned evil!

Sorry...I forgot my place man...let me try again...

That freakin Manning couldn't hit the side of an armored Bradley Vechicle with a hand grenade at 10 yards...good thing he is not a terrorist I tell ya...his passes are as sharp as a dull knife...when he brushes his teeth and rinses in the morning he misses the sink altogether...If he did not have a driver taking him to the game, he would miss the Meadowlands completely...if...

How's that...

Re: Eli Manning...Upon Further Review.

Herm Edwards comparing the Jews exodus of Egypt to his football blunders could make anyone insane! Luckily I have sold my soul to Mr. Mangini the way Anakin Skywalker sold his soul to Darth Sidious. As for my girl...well the Emperor gave Count Dooku the old heave ho cuz he was an old drag and looked for a younger, more powerful apprentice. I could very well apply that to my situation! This doesnt in anyway make me sound less crazy does it?

Re: Eli Manning...Upon Further Review.

Hey, isn't this forum about a complex review of Eli Manning.

Here is a review complementary of TSN.CA:
Quote:
Assets------Possesses an outstanding football pedigree. Has a better arm than Peyton did when he left college. Can make all the throws. Excellent technique and fundamentals: has a high, quick release and great footwork. Very accurate on short passes, with very good touch and timing. Knows the game like a veteran and can read the field and make pre-snap decisions. Moves well in the pocket and can throw on the run. Mature, confident, and poised.

Flaws-----Not a superior athlete. Lacks his brother's pinpoint accuracy. While he's a tough competitor who was well respected by teammates, some scouts suggest that he lacks Peyton's competitive fire and attention to detail.

Career potential----Elite prospect.
According to my calculations, TSN.CA awarded Eli Manning with a final rating of 66.

Just passing, yet so sad. What do you have to say about this, my Jedi.

Re: Eli Manning...Upon Further Review.

Ok im lost. The report (and thanx for that report Marc) says hes very accurate on short passes but lacks Peytons pinpoint accuracy. How short the pass is he accurate and how long would Eli be inaccurate? Also an elite prospect shouldnt have such a poor score as 66. Especially if could "make all the throws." See this is why I followed Count Dooku to the Dark Side.

Re: Eli Manning...Upon Further Review.

I agree. According to a Madden 07 Forum, they believe Eli Manning will have about an 87 OVR rating this year in Madden. This overall rating was an average based on five users.

According to a user of AllHipHop.Com, he should be rated an 88 OVR in Madden 07.

According to the popular IGN.Com, Manning was rated an 82 OVR in Madden 06.

None of the Madden 07 ratings have been released to the public, unless if you are a member of http://www.fbgratings.com/

See, I am if he rates an 87 in Madden...well, that's proof enough...lets see Joey Harrington rate an 87...

Actually Harrington was a cover boy for the College Version one year...I remember playing with his Oregon team and doing well...and wasn't Manning like a 98 on the college edition?
