Plus I'm not familiar with their salaries, but I have a feeling Bledsoe's more of a value than Eli right now.

I was just pointing out that Manning has done okay for a second year QB by putting up similar numbers to a 13 year Vet - with less turnovers. If he tanks next year, then I may start criticizing him.

As for your assertion that Manning wouldn't have done better than Bledsoe, that's pure speculation. I won't argue either way on that because it's pointless and can't be proven either way.

Bledsoe is one of the most turnover prone QBs in the league because of his abnormal amount of fumbles. Always has been. Manning seems to be taking better care of the ball already (0 lost fumbles), which gives him a distinct advantage over Bledsoe in my book.

Yes its better than 8 but we had the equivalent of road cones playing tackle

I have had my *** kicked by road cones on numerous occasions. Don't sell them short.
