does anyone know of a site where they list 4th quarter comebacks by quarterback?

I'm curious to see how Eli ranks against other active QB's.

Not sure, but he's one of the best in the business and it's a big

reason you sign him to a long-term deal. He has the intangibles that so many others that post gaudy, useless stats don't.

Don't have a list, but this is from Ralph's blog in September....

In his 64 career starts, including the playoffs, Manning has rallied the Giants out of a fourth-quarter hole to either take the lead or tie the game an amazing 16 times. Eleven times, including yesterday�s 26-23 overtime win over the Cincinnati Bengals, the comeback has resulted in a win.

And if that doesn�t impress you, consider this: The Giants have trailed in the fourth quarter in 38 of Manning�s 64 starts - more than half. Yet he�s rallied them to win 28.9% of those times. So if the Giants trail in the final 15 minutes, Manning has basically given them a one-in-three shot to win.

He also goes on to list the details of each comeback. Good read.

are one and two and pretty close in comeback wins over the past four years.

Thanks for the replies - I know 1 and 2

active leaders are Peyton (I think 33 as of Sep 08) and Brady (as of and still 27 from Sep 08).

It would be nice to know after those two.
