Cross FIRE (Poll): Who would you take right now, Eli Manning or Peyton Manning?

Cross Fire, NFL Inferno 4 comments

Cross FIRE: I have my opinion, but I like to see what other people think as well. I take two players or teams and put them against each other one on one and see who comes out on top.

There was a time when I think the answer to this question was obvious. But now with Peyton coming back from an injury and Eli coming off of his second superbowl victory, I don’t think the answer is quite as clear. I know what I think, but what do you think?

Eli has lived in Peyton’s shadow too long! He’s the better QB, although it’s close…

  Yes, I think Eli is the better QB now also, but if Peyton can stay healthy, he’ll make it interesting. Thanks for comment.

Hands down it’s Eli. I would rather have Eli in the 4th qtr. of a close game than Peyton. He had what five come back wins in the 4th last year alone! Plus he threw the ball 589 times last season and had only 16 INTs!
At this point in their respective careers Eli far and away is the frontrunner.

  It looks like Eli is going to run away with this one. Peyton’s neck injury kind of seals it though. You don’t know how durable he will be once the hitting starts.
