While this is largely true I still think Rivers was a much better overall quartback I suspect he wins those superbowls if the trade hadn't happened.... he never had close to the defensive support Manning had.

Maybe, maybe not. Eli absolutely played his ass off in those two SB runs.

And it wasn't just a one-time thing with Eli.  He wasn't a consistent QB but he was crazy clutch.

You can't say the same about Rivers.  Was he a better QB than Eli?  Sure, but with the game on the line, give me Eli 100%.

I wish Burns was half the player Hutchinson was. Burns has a tendency to disappear and Hutchinson has a habit of showing up in big moments.

White DEs/edge rushers are a different breed.  Hutchinson, Bosa, TJ Watt, Crosby... they are built different man lol 

Burns is a good player but he doesn't have that kind of edge to him.

At the end of the day it comes down to rings. For a long time it looked like the Chargers had won that Eli trade by 2 rings to none says the Giants won by a landslide.

I never mentioned who won the trade but thanks for not reading

    • That doesn't sound like a theory rooted in the short term futures of their GM and HC. I doubt they survive to see the end of that plan.
    • The Raiders have already shown enough interest in Jeanty that anyone after 6 that wants him and would trade up for him, will already be calling the Jags for a trade anyways. The only thing them signaling interest in Jeanty could do if their interest was to trade back, would be to bluff the Raiders into making a swap with them to add draft assets while still drafting whoever they are actually targeting.
    • I love when people go after his YAC ability as if he wasn't 5th in the Big 12 this past season in YAC, because he was. And you can say his style of YAC doesn't mesh with this type of game, but that on its face is just nonsense, because if he's good enough to be 5th in a major conference, it clearly meshes well with his game. The reason you say it doesn't, is because you think all he is good at is making contested catches because of his radius, but because you haven't watched enough of his full tape, you don't realize that he's consistently used in the screen and short slant game to get the ball in his hands because he actually is a solid YAC guy because he's surprisingly agile for a player of his size.   No, he's no Tyreek, but he has more than enough wiggle to his game that you combine it with everything he does at an elite level because of his size, and it makes for a guy who is going to be a consistent 1k yard and 10+ TD player.  He can be the true outside #1 that we need, but he's also versatile enough to be moved into the slot at times to scheme the ball into his hands against smaller nickel corners or slower linebackers. He's a slightly less physical Mike Evans but with more agility, my comp was always AJ Green.  He's going to be an elite #1 WR in this league for the next decade, if he's there and we pass on him to trade down for another WR, we will regret it for a long time.
