Both championship games were great. It's such a shame that one guy is being blamed in each of the losses. I hate to see it when one guy is singled out.

Yeah, the media likes to focus on that. It's the quick and easy answer but in reality both teams had opportunities to do things better, like usual. I agree that both were great games.

Eli is no joke either, people like to shit on him because he's goofy looking and his demeanor but I trust in Eli, a ton. Dude has been clutch not to mention tough as nails. If he plays like he's been and beats the Pats again with the Golden Boy in the SB.....I don't ever wanna hear anything negative about him again. I was so stoked that he shoved it right up Tiki's ass 4 yrs. ago.

I wouldn't count on that, even today I was hearing the media on WFAN 66.6 AM Radio, yeah. even Mike Francesa, stating that even now Eli Manning isn't on the same level as Aaron Rodgers...

I don't get it, the guy is in his second superbowl, he BEAT Aaron Rodgers in his own building, should have beat him in the regular season too, beat the 2nd best defense in the NFL, carried the team early in the year when the defense was beaten up, all while having quite possibly the hardest schedule in all the NFL.

 

How does Rodgers win one Superbowl and become the greatest thing since sliced bread, even when he showed that if you get him early and get him angry he could wind up beating himself, all while Eli keeps a cool demeanor regardless of what is going on out on the field.

I am convinced this guy will always get disrespected and it's a damn shame. Coould win his 2nd SB and still not be considered as good as guys who won (1) or none...
