Does anyone actually like Eli Manning?

Not a fan here!!  I am with you on the "I don't want to play for the Chargers" thing when he was drafted.  To me Philip Rivers is a much better QB than Eli and this is Rivers' first year of actually getting to play some, Eli's been starting since he was drafted.  It just made me think that Eli thinks he is something really special and can get his way just because of his last name.  I much rather watch Philip Rivers (I remember when he was at my favorite college team, NC State!).  Besides I am a die hard Dallas Cowboys fan and don't care for the Giants at all!!!

He is good, but the other CB sux. Peyton Manning and Reggie Wayne burnt him all game long a couple of weeks ago. Probably why Bailey looks so good. No one throws his way because whoever is on the other side is wide open!!!

no i wouldnt because it seems that manning has thrown alot more to wayne this year and seems that Eli has given up on throwing to shockey and is going more to burress so for this season no i would not

You and me both. That loss made me nauseous. Hell, I think it made every Giants fan nauseous. \n\nYou know what, I've said it for about two weeks now, that I'm really surprised how well Tony Romo is playing. He's really just taken that team and made it better. The Saints, well, I am happy for them and I'm disappointed in the Bears (I just hate the Pats, I wanted the Bears to win yesterday). \n\nHonestly, I don't really know what happened yesterday. Eli...oh Eli. There are only so many excuses that people can come up with to explain his bipolar playing. One game: he's fantastic. Lately, he's just tanking. I sat there watching him throw that final interception and just felt myself cringe. Why? WHY! He needs to go home and have a serious conversation with Peyton. DONT DO STUPID THINGS WHEN THE GAME IS ON THE LINE! Now I have never really liked Plaxico. He makes a big play about...once a game if he can catch. Other than that, he's a complete waste to our offense. If they can teach Tiki not to fumble, they can teach Plax how to hold onto a damn ball. I wouldn't be surprised of Shockey decided to leave. I mean c'mon, they never even use him! He's there for purely decoration, and I'd be pissed off if I were him. And I don't care about "well, I might have been roughing the passer," that half-tackle by Kiwi nearly made me want to punch the screen. TAKE DOWN THE QB. Just make sure his knee hits the ground, then done. Take your damn 15 yards (it wouldn't've even been) and then tackle him again. \n\nI think that with losing our best players, it's exposing how shaky Eli's quarterbacking skills are. With our best players in the game and healthy, they kind of balanced Eli's crappy mistakes and still kept us in there. But since we're playing 3rd stringers, we just don't have that ability anymore. \n\nI think last night we handed the division title to Dallas on a golden platter. And after the way we played, I'm afraid to say we deserved it. If we win against Dallas, we'll at least be tied with them. We are still in the Wild Card race with the Panthers, but I know every Giants fan remembers that game last year...complete shut out. Complete embarrassment. \n\n...I think we need to draft a new QB. And receivers. And a healthy defense.

Yes, and I'll tell you why - he's got a great head on his shoulders.  He's smart, likes to spread the ball around, and his team mates love him - look at the level of play out of the Offensive line since he came on board.\n\nThe offense of the Dallas Cowboys has done a complete 360.  the Bears are melting down, the rest of Dallas' division is hurt - I think Dallas will win out, and I think it will be a Colts/Cowboys Superbowl with the Colts pulling it out in the end.

there both good qb's, peyton obviously a little better then eli at this point in his career, but if your asking who's hotter then i have to go with none of the above.  I'm more into Urlacher personally.

I THINK HE IS JUST YOUR AVERAGE QUARTERBACK.GO SKINS

What groove. Eli needs to get out of the 4th quarter hero mindset that he developed as a child.\nHe can be a better QB than what he is and yes, he does have a bit of maturing to do.\nBlame it on whoever it is that thinks all the good college QBs can enter the pro ranks and immediately contribute as the starting QB.\nI remember seeing rookies and even some vet QBs on the sideline holding clipboards and learning the position and system by watching it in play.\nWhile there is a lot to be said for sink or swim learning; having a clear cut example to learn from is an excellent method as well.\nPersonally, I don't think Eli will ever lead the Giants to a Super Bowl; however, I think Eli's pedigree maybe leads some of us to expect too much too soon of Eli.\nPatience.\nI'm a Giants fan.\nI hope he'll prove me wrong.

Being a Redskins fan (yeah, I know...but I'm true in good times and bad) I should love to see the Giants lose (and waste a number of draft picks for a guy that isn't meeting expectations)....unfortunately for me, Eli is my fantasy QB.  Needless to say, I lost this week.\nBut hey, at least the Redskins won.

All I know is that the Vikings soured on him 1 year after having an MVP type season.  If manning had not thrown for like a million touchdowns, he would have won.  He is still a young guy.  If a team that knows the most about a player wants nothing to do with him... WHY WOULD YOU WANT HIM???

You mean the Guy with 3 super bowl rings?\nThe Guy beats the Colts and Peyton (gag, choke) Manning\nevery year in the playoffs is gay?\n well I guess a Colts fan would know since the Colts are the Patriots' bit@h

gah!  I don't see why.  Eli and Peyton are a couple of crybabys.  And I wouldn't be surprised if they got it from their dad.  (Wasn't it Archie who advised Eli to throw a fit if the Chargers drafted him?)

Even without Merriman and Kaeding (who are both the leading Pro  Bowl vote getters for their positions), this was a bad deal.  Rivers not only has more physical talent (better arm, quicker release, more mobile), but he's already a better leader and makes better decisions with the football than Manning.  Eli will never be more than a great quarterback's lesser brother/son.

Even if you're not a COLTS fan, you gotta appreciate his talents as a QB. Can you imagine what life would be like if he ever got traded to another team? (I don't see that really happening, it's just a question.) Even if he did, he'd be a helluva QB where ever he played. Peyton for President!!  Ok, maybe not President, but Vice President.

Sorry...had to comment....but I am defiantly not a nay sayer.  I am a woman who does not like to watch football that much.... GUESS what......I LOVE TO WATCH PEYTON MANNING.. Why? Is he gorgeous....no....HE IS ONE OF THE MOST TALENTED Quarterbacks I have ever seen.  Ok you are thinking what does a woman who hardly ever watches football know...well maybe you are right, but the fact that he is the only quarterback that actually holds my attention says a lot to me.  Passing games are much more exciting to watch than say the Falcons running games (ha ha)  especially when the ball is caught because it was thrown right where it needed to be.
