    You're saying that he's not as good as the elite QB's in the league. That makes him not an elite QB.

    Seeing that Deuce agrees with me, I may have to reconsider my position. :hmm:

    Top 5 = elite.

    I would take Brady, Brees, and Rodgers over Peyton. Does that mean Peyton isn't elite. Honestly at this point, I'd take Eli over Peyton - largely due to the fact that Peyton's best days are behind him and he is a big question mark at this point.

    He's not in the top 5 and even if he is, the massive chasm between him and the 4 ahead of him makes him not elite.

    Really who cares. He isn't our QB.

    You can argue about it over and over. Bottom line is he gets the job done and has proven he can. a 2 time super bowl MVP and super bowl champion.... you have to give the guy some credit. The definition of elite is different in everyones mind

    I still have Brady and Peyton over Eli. You can say well Eli has beaten Brady twice but then I'll say what did Brady really have this season and how lucky Eli was the time before.

    Yet no one does it when they got drafted by the Lions or Cardinals.

    He's an isolated incident/rare incident. He dictated the draft.

    There isn't a barometer for elite Quarterbacks. You either are or you're not. You're not Elite by default just because your the 5th best quarterback...

    Rodgers
    Brady
    Brees
    and a healthy Peyton

    their on a level of their own which makes them elite, Eli is far from that level.
