now usually I don't watch any of these shit shows, but this one may have been the worst I've ever seen. so they show the giants highlights and here's the commentating afterwards.
1. heath Evans biggest take away was dropped INTS. Admits he's still bitter from 2007 and mentions how the pats dropped 3 against Eli as well.
2. Terrell davis said the 49ers shoukd have taken a knee on first down to run the clock because the giants had only 1 TO left. when in fact they had 3. but regardless, he thinks it smart to give up a down when you need a score to win the game.
3. some Fabio douche talked about who was fantasy relevant. seriously? who gives a flying rats ass.
4. they showed eli's stats with 2 ints when he only had 1.
just absolutely disgraceful.
Bad argument to say Eli had scrubs around him those years.

I don't think he was calling them scrubs. I think he was saying he didn't have any stars. The quote was something like, quickly without thinking about it, name one..."
Will let you guys know if I get a response.
You give up a down, at goalline, when you need a TD to take the lead? LOL
You need a TD, not a FG idiot...............

tried to go TOO FAR in his praise for Eli by saying, "name one wide receiver or running back that played with Eli on the two Super Bowl teams. You can't do it! You can't name one!"

Regardelss, he's wrong. Most fans of the game know Burress, Jacobs, Bradshaw, Toomer, Cruz, and Nicks.
It's subjective...As Giants fans we love those guys, but compared to their peers they weren't stars. When I think of stars and I believe what he was talking about to was players who are the top of the league at their position. For example, Brady doesn't just have a good TE, he has one of the best in the league if not all time. Jerry Rice wasn't just a good WR for SF, he was one of the best all time. Julio Jones isn't just a good WR, he is one of the best in the league as in top 5. OBJ is the first time Eli has had one of those guys. Tiki was the closest thing he had to that before, but they never won anything with him on the team.

Burress was a star receiver but not a HOF guy.
Like wise Cruz was on fire in 2011 and most people I think would easily recall his name.
Point taken though...
The national media will never give Eli his fair shake. They STILL bring up the 04 draft and how Eli handled things back then. Funny no mention of how elway handled things back in 83 or how Peyton told everyone he wouldn't play for the jets if they drafted him after his junior season and Peyton stayed on for his senior year even though he would have been first pick if he left early. Apparently Eli is the only collegiate athlete to use his power to dictate things.
I pray Eli shits all over the NFL one more time in January/February. Just one more run please. One more...

Burress was a star for us. For all he did for the Giants he was never an All Pro and never a Pro Bowl player. If he was top five at all, it was top five in the NFC, not the league. We really tend to overrate star Giants on BBI. Go look at how he compared to his peers when he was playing.
