Cam Newton is playing injured and probably has been playing injured for the last 3 or so years. He continued to play, because the Panther’s only other option at that point was...*check notes*...A literal robot who was programmed to throw turnovers and make racial slurs. He didn’t play because he was selfish, he played…

18-1 will be remembered as long as this era of the NFL is.

I think it also had a lot with the AFC being considered a joke back then. The win is synonymous with that no longer being the status quo, thus the historical relevance to the NFL thus the free ticket to the HoF.

Most importantly, he won a Super Bowl for New York.

All QB Hall of Fame debates were rendered moot when they put Joe Namath in.

Yeah, he had high expectations of based on his name, which caused people to overrate him when he was playing well, and then trash him as worthless when he struggled.

I also think had he been the QB in Indy or Houston or Arizona, there would have been a bigger propensity to excuse his mistakes and take his talents for what they were. Being the QB in NY (because, let’s face it, the conga line of QBs the Jets trotted out while Eli was there was some shit) brought a greater sense of…

I would say it’s very questionable whether he was actually good. The guy finishes with a career 60.3% completion rate and a 116-116 record, both completely average. Led the league in interceptions three times en route to 241 of them, never broke 70 QBR once in a single season, hasn’t had a double-digit win team this…

I mostly remember him for making faces like this:

I will remember Eli for four things:

The Hall of fame question is valid, thats very much up for debate. But asking “was Eli Manning actually any good” is actually an incredibly stupid question. Yes the guy was good QB. He has a .500 record and won two super bowls with two of the greatest playoff runs in QB history. You don’t do that by not being any…

Starter money is reserved for studs like Case Keenum and Ryan Tannehill.

I’m struggling to figure out exactly why the Steelers made this trade. Fitzpatrick is a nice player, but not a franchise difference-maker. With Ben out, any promise this season may have once held is lost. Why give up a high draft pick for such an unsubstantial return?

But you let in Ryan Fitzpatrick!

They’re allowed ONE.

I think I have an idea of who was behind this.

Maybe their plan is to draft 4 1st rounders at WR, it worked for the Lions.

Haven’t the Dolphins amassed something like 97 picks at this point? One of the 13 QBs they draft should pan out.
