Nate Burleson:Dwayne Haskins is a better QB than Eli

NYBEN1963 : 6/10/2019 5:46 pm
First off let me say I really like Nate Burleson I think he is really good at his job as an analyst,usually very smart with well thought out comments.But this is the stupidest thing i have EVER heard in over 40 years of following football and it isn't even close.I know alot of these shows thrive on saying outlandish shit just to get people talking during the off season but this is beyond idiotic.His credibility took a big hit in my eyes after this non-sense
Unbelievable!! - ( New Window )

Well If you think Dak is a product of his OL And Zeke is that opinion really a stretch? Now the 10-6 smells like Homerism Sure. But Prescott is a wildly over rated.

I'm pretty sure everyone on the show is a Giants fan except Nate.

And they routinely have Garafolo on.
I'd rather hear from Forrest Gump

He'll give better football analysis than Burleson,after all,he did play it,and he can swing a ping pong paddle.

Schrager is a Giants fan. Brandt is a Jets fan. Not sure about Adams.
You guys do realize

that what he means is Eli is DONE as in “should retire”- and he may be right.
Nonsense without any evidence.

I just wish the season could start now and all this stupidity could go away. A kid with thirteen career starts in college playing on a talented team is going to be a better player than Eli is ridiculous. The guy has bust written all over him. He should have stayed in college because he seems like a very intelligent guy.

This isn't a shocking statement. Eli doesn't have a rocket for an arm. Never did.

Kerry Collins had a better arm than Eli.



True and KC was not a better QB than Eli.But to declare Haskins a better QB without ever taking a live snap is beyond asinine


I remember when Mark Sanchez was better.
I remember when RG3 was better.
I remember when Joe Flacco was better.
I remember when Nick Foles was better.
I remember when Kirk Cousins was better.
I remember when Josh Freeman was better.
An awful lot of folks around the league think Eli is toast.  
BlueLou'sBack : 6/10/2019 10:18 pm : link
And an awful lot of talking heads and just average NFL fans who don't have any particular reason to care about Eli think he has sucked for years.

Learn to live with it. Pretty soon you might be thinking the same thing and clamoring for DJ8.
As coach parcells once proclaimed.....  
thrunthrublue : 6/10/2019 10:21 pm : link
Might be premature to be measuring him for a gold jacket.....maybe best to see him play at least one snap.

Not sure if it was just post draft hysterics, but Brandt claims to be a Skins fan.
Let's talk after Haskins gets his first SB MVP award.

on Eli. But saying Haskins is a better QB right now without having ever played one regular season down in the NFL is bizarre and idiotic.

if the Giants had taken Haskins all the talking heads would be tearing Haskins apart and talking about the steal the Redskins got in Jones
Whatever agree Ben ...

What is Eli gonna do when its third and 23 or whatever
the fuck he said with no OBJ ? For whatever reason
there are a few too many who want to play the racist card
and it makes me sick it.s a loser mentality ..
Nate is a good tv personality

He's wrong. We have the best QB situation in the division.
Rather naive statement to make at this point  
Beer Man : 6/11/2019 7:50 am : link
given that Mr. Haskins has not even taken his first NFL snap; not to mention reports have been that he has had a rough start in the off-season program. Maybe one day, Redskins fans will be able to look back and see multiple SBs, pro-bowls, MVPs, etc., and then they can make that statement. But to make a statement like that at this point in Haskins career is just dumb.
Maybe..

Haskins waived Burleson's $50 entrance fee to the draft party?
I love Nate Burleson and I’m glad Kyle and Peter

laughed when he said this.

Hes become infatuated with Haskins.

Ummm. Nate has his head up his a**. Haskins is getting outplayed by Case Keenum so far. DH will hold the clipboard until the Redskins are eliminated from the playoffs.

That said, I'd say Eli is the 3rd best QB in the division, behind Wentz and Dak (who is better than we think he is).

I like our QB situation. Is it the best in the division, probably not...unless DJ becomes a franchise QB.

Eli Manning is likely in his last season with the Giants, I'm hoping he delivers one more magical run to the post-season. He appears to be in good shape and ready to give it a shot. His arm isn't what it was. But, he's a pro, I'm glad we have him as the starter.

I was upset when we drafted Jones at #6 (and missed Allen) on draft night, like alot of us. He appears to have his priorities right during mini-camp and the OTA's. He has a better arm that I thought and has some nice mobility. He has said and done all the right things.

Rooting hard for him, but the kid has yet to take a snap facing a defense with pads on, let alone in a live NFL pre-season game. That's his next test. Imagine the insanity on this board if he throws 3 picks in his first pre-season game (which he should start BTW).

DJ's developing, which is great. The jury is out. However, his first impression has been dynamite.

Fingers crossed.

At one point, Larry Holmes was a better boxer than Ali. Doesn't mean in the entirety of ones career, they were better.

Eli is getting old. For me, I want to see him going out with his head high, with some nice wins under his belt this year. But like taxes and death, age does not discriminate.

The difference between guys like Haskins and Eli, is Eli can look back and say, in the toughest of times, against the best competition, in a window of time, I was on top of the world. Twice! Until Haskins wins two Super Bowl MVP's and carries a team to glory, it's all noise.
Regardless of what you think of Eli  
Mike from Ohio : 6/11/2019 12:22 pm : link
There is no basis at all for suggesting Dwayne Haskins is better than any NFL quarterback. He may very well be, but the guy hasn't taken a snap in the NFL. He could turn into Dan Marino or Ryan Leaf. Nobody knows.

To say at this point in his career who Haskins is already better than is simply emotional stupidity.
And I think Daniel Jones  
Deejboy : 6/11/2019 12:42 pm : link
is way better NFL QB than Haskins right now. So.
