    ...lol, nice assumption. Sorry, but he's nowhere near those numbers yet.

    ...How many times do I have to say "at this point"?

    Your bias has shown through too much. Even at this point he's fourth amoung actives in yards and touch downs.

    ...what bias?...please explain, if you can...exactly how am I "biased". I'm a fucking Raiders fan, and I have no loyalty neither to Eli nor Peyton.

    ...conversely, you're the Giants fan and you purposely inflated Eli's #s on an assumption to try to prove a point, ...but I'M the one who's "biased"?...gimme a fucking break.

    I inflated nothing. They're already what they are. Like I said in terms of yards and touch downs he's behind Peyton, Brady and Brees. He's a two time champion and a two time super bowl MVP. Gimme a fucking break would be reserved to resorting to playing the Eli got lucky card to dimish his accomplishments.

    ...uhhh, yes, you did. Lemme refresh your memory; "Two super bowls along with 50k yards and over 300 tds."..........hence "inflated"


    ...still waiting to hear how I am "biased".

    I didn't inflate anything. I clearly stated that unless he implodes he wouldn't need to do anything extraordinary to reach those levels in five seasons. As for the biased I already pointed out the Eli got lucky comment you made.

    ...wait, because i have a different opinion, that make's me biased?...great logic. Still does not quantify "biased"...nice try though.

    ...but you pointing to Peyton's PS record (9-9) is not "biased"?...I see how this works, someone points out that "at this point", your team's QB is not yet worthy of the HOF must be biased. ...gotcha.

    ...yes, you did "inflate" his numbers by assuming he'll maintain numbers he amassed during his previous years which were likely his most productive years...surprised you didn't also arbitrarily add 2-3 more SBs in there.

    Again, he doesn't need to put up tremendous numbers the next handful of years to reach those levels. If you want to take the position that a guy who has never missed a game is suddenly going to fall down and die and never do another thing in the NFL that's fine. It still doesn't take away the fact that he's a two time SB winning QB and a two time SB MVP. If the only thing you can think of to retort that is he got lucky then yes you're biased.

    As for Peyton Manning I never denied he's going to go down as the greatest regular season QB of all time. He just hasn't had the post season success of some of the greats. It doesn't mean he's not going to retire with every record there is at the position. That being said if you were to ask him I'm sure he would've traded his regular season numbers last year if it meant winning the Super Bowl.

    Yup! No question, looking forward to a great year....despite the sideshow of pick #249.

    ...now all you have to do, is hope the new acquisitions pan out and will make a HUGE impact, if not, well, you know.

    ...Eli can't constantly be harassed and sacked...if the O-line does not make a quantum leap forward, the running and passing game will suffer. They'll have a good defense, they always do it seems...but the G-men were 28th in total offense last year.

    My niners had a great draft!

    And if eli didn't have the two super bowls he would have ZERO hof case, with them I think he is still borderline, needs to finish stronger than last year

    I guess it was either this one or the kissing one or the one of them pushing cake into each others face. I'd go with this one.

    ...lol...no, that's the one I intended...I just felt it odd that they felt the need to go out of their way to show his partner.

    ...but yeah, the Niners drafted well...I just hope the team across The Bay did too.
