Seriously...I'm 47 years old, have been on this site since 2006, have 3,700+ posts and I am still a junior member?
What do I have to do to be a senior member...move back in my parents basement and post all day long?
In SuperBowl XLII our defense gave up the lead in 4 th quarter and Eli then led our offense to a score to win game. Eli Manning opening the game with a drive that took 9:59 off the clock was what set the tone for that game and was the main reason NE Patriots didn't score till 2nd quarter.In SuperBowl XLVI our defense gave up 17 points in 21 minutes and was bailed out by Wes Welker. Eli Manning and NY Giants offense keeping Tom Brady on tue sidelines for almost 38 minutes was The Best defense that day.Peyton is 1and done 8 times in post season. This last one is all on him for the loss with that lame overtime pick as was the pick 6 in SuperBowl against Saints. Eli Manning may not be a better overall QB than Peyton Manning but he far surpasses him in post season.

[QUOTE=BuffyBlueII;669102]Eli Manning has also never been on a team with a defense that would be considered a strength.[/QUOTE
]except they stepped up like Eli did in the post season.....so the D was a big factor.

They played more inspired than they did during regular season but both those SuperBowls were dictated by our offense. This Ny Giants defense relies on our offense to tailor their game to make up for our defenses softness and lack of conditioning.
