I don't want to take away all credit from Eli.  he played well during those 2 runs(just like sanchez did for us) BUT his D's stepped up big time along w/ his STs.  creating TOs, holding high powered O's down and giving them a chance.  they held the greatest O of all time to 14 pts, 4 years later held another all time great O to 19 pts and scored 2 points.  Eli had to lead his O to 17 and 19 points to win 2 SBs.  In SB history the only other teams to win scoring less than 20 pts are the '68 Jets, '70 Colts, '72 dolphins and '74 Steelers.  he's led the league in INTs THREE times, he's led NYG to missing the playoffs 7 of 9 years, w/ SB talent in 2007 and 2011 he led his team to 10 and 9 wins and yet people want to talk about the Hall of Fame w/ this guy?  seriously?

 

Eli isn't hall of fame worthy for the reasons you stated but he isn't in the same league as Sanchez. You are delusional when it comes to Sanchez. Where is he now again?

I didn't bring up sanchez, someone else did but Mark and Eli are similar. One had the support of an organization, the other did not. if you switch their circumstances they'd have had opposite careers.

You claim Giants defense carried Eli to Superbowls. Somewhat true for 2007 but not for 2011. In 2011 Giants defense ranked last in regular season. Eli carried them to the Playoffs. He had 8 4th quarter comebacks that year. So please stop putting him in the same league as Sanchez. You know football very well but your obsession with Snachez takes away from your credibility.

REGULAR SEASON.  In the PLAYOFFS and SUPER BOWL(where it mattered most) they were GREAT.  that was probably Eli's best full season and again I said he played well in both SB runs(meaning in the playoffs) but his D/STs were outstanding.  They shut down high powered O's like GB and NE.  In the 2011 title game Eli led the Giants to 10 pts in the 2nd half and OT- all 10 pts were set up by TOs forced by STs setting NYG up deep in SF territory.  Eli contributed but both of those teams were led by their defenses just like our teams in 2009 and 2010.  the difference is their D played great throughout, ours played great until the title games.
