wasn't there an article earlier in the season about Eli aiming for 70% completions?
How is he doing so far?

What?


The first 2 weeks you listed every QB with 3 INT's or more.

There are 14 QB's who ave 3 or more INT's so I'm just wondering why you didn't list them and only listed one's with 4 all of a sudden?

I know you like to make fun of Eli and it's a fun topic don't get me wrong but I feel like you made it solely to pick on Eli.

it's the end of week 3. if i listed every QB with 3 picks, it would get out of hand. besides, this is about total turnovers and i ranked them accordingly. 3 picks doesn't cut it as there are players with picks and fumbles that amount to more total turnovers.

read the purpose of the thread before getting outrageously defensive please. eli is tied to 2nd

He doesn't care about his stats in the least bit. He cares about winning. He will try and make a play out of nothing rather than take sack after sack and concede the game, or accept the loss. He would rather a receiver try and make a play on the ball than just give up. Obviously it doesn't always work out to his benefit but nonetheless he's not afraid to take that chance.

It's why his completion percentage has never been the best, why his INT's are always pretty high and why he doesn't have the "sexy" stats like QB rating.

Eli is a winner and he will try anything to win despite whatever factors is going on around him.


The past two games Eli has a 70.1% completion percentage. He fits this offense like a glove. They look exactly like the Packers.


dude.........


no :wallbash:

3 picks doesn't cut it but you listed QB's with 3 the first two weeks?

I don't mind this thread at all because I know how good of a QB Eli is regardless how most people feel.

I just find it weird you of all people have a problem with Eli when you're not in our division.

Cassel down for the count with a broken foot.

Really had faith he'd make a good run at his first eli award

I'm not sure you want to look exactly like the Packers offense right now.

Lol not what I meant

But seriously this offense is starting to look potent, we're about to "take off". We get ODB back probably against ATL in two weeks. We'll see how much of an impact he'll have if he's out there.

Even if it's his first game I still think he should make an impact because of his speed and play making ability.
