If you never liked Eli, how come?

Creme777 : 3/22/2018 10:17 am
It is time we put aside the silly nonsense aside. Picture you and I having a conversation at the bar and I give you that glare...why dont you like Eli?

Some fans (and I can see it on here) have just flat out said they dont like Eli. I remember when I worked with a buddy Roger and it was the 2016 Saints game and I said "Oh Eli was dealing good balls at them receivers yesterday" and he just sat there in silence and he said sweating and nervous "uh uh lets see what he does next week!" It was adorable.

So I can see some of us on here just dont like him. Why? Is it because hes not Simms? Did you want Rivers or Ben? Is it the high interception total? What makes you just want to find something you dont like about a franchise QB.

I am not talking about moving on here and all of that. People who just dont like him since day 1. Is it because he is Peyton's brother? It has arrived. I think he (Eli) is perfect for me. I think this is where it becomes reality for some of ya'll.
It's not something I really like talking about,

but I'm not sure I could maintain silence in the face of your glare. The guy's a dork, not much to like about that. And he thinks he's elite - c'mon, who's he kidding. And the cherry on top is he peddles fake memorabilia. That's just classless. All around, very little to like.
Wow awesome...

I worked for Roadway trucking, darn you!
I'm a huge Eli fan.

The head-scratching, put-the-ball-in-extreme-jeopardy mistakes that he's really never corrected are the flaw that stands out in bold letters.

I would argue, however, that the way he pulls the trigger in the face of a tight window are also one of his greatest snap-to-whistle strengths.

The two things are clearly related, so we take the good with the bad. The haters have an argument with regard to ball security, but I believe the two SB wins do not happen without the brass-balls approach to the position.

See Eli as a living legend. But then most people I know are highly intelligent.
I believe there are zealots...  
BamaBlue : 3/22/2018 10:34 am : link
Zealots who think Eli can do no wrong; zealots who think Eli is toast. Both think that any contrary opinion is heresy and evidence of defective genetics. Like most things and reasonable people... the truth is somewhere in the middle.
What do your 12 kids think about Eli?

So many children.... yet, so much time to spend on BBI.

Strange!

It’s a Simo, same posting style.

I also asked in one of his multiple threads yesterday how is Pops is doing. Never responded.
I was really turned off...

by the draft shenanigans Eli, Archie and Condon pulled. It was the height of arrogance and the act of a spoiled brat.

To this day, I wish we drafted the better play - Roethlisberger - instead.

Saying he has like 6 handles in the hopper.

Re: Mannings on draft day. Teams discard players unceremoniously.  
BBelle21 : 3/22/2018 2:02 pm : link
It’s just a business, as everyone likes to say. Players put themselves at risk physically and psychologically. They are often paid handsomely, but I have zero issue with any player using what power they have to gain an advantage. Elway, Kelly, Eli, and whoever is next. This goes for contracts and, yes, for the draft as well.

And personally, I’m overjoyed that an alleged rapist hasn’t been the face of our franchise for over a decade.

Lmao don't ever change man...
The true answer  
PaulN : 3/22/2018 3:04 pm : link
Is if you are a Giant fan and don't like Eli, then you pretty much have to have some problem with your thinking. Because if 2 rings are not enough during a QB's time as a starter, then you are on a bad trip.
Unsurprisingly...
