But Eli plays great the whole game as well as the last six minutes. I guess elite means something different to each of us. I think Eli is elite you don't, it's not like the winner of this argument gets to have his definition printed in the Oxford Dictionary.Quote:

So...
...you can't be Elite until you win some Championships and Superbowl's...
...but you can win multiple Championships and Superbowl's and still not be Elite....
Got it....
Again I ask what do all those qbs you reference have in common? Again the same thing as Favorite.:pQuote:

Dirty Birds to the Bowl!!!

Then, there is their playoff history, Matty Noodle led them to what, 2 points in their last playoff game. Got murdered at home the year before in the playoffs.
And, no one likes a big mouth like Roddy White! Telling the Press that they have the pedigree to go 16 - 0 along with Gonzalez whinning about not getting any respect, can you spell; L O S E R S ?
I was there in 1978 when the rivalry began with the Batkowski Hail Mary to win on the last play and the Grover Klemmer game when the Ref Klemmer made a bad call giving the Dirty Birds the ball at the one on a Pass Interference call with 20 seconds left! We've been in the same freakin Division since 1970 when the Saints were moved out of the Century Division and into the NFC West.
The irony is that the player supposedly interfered with, Falcons WR Billy Rykman, and I currently work together and are friends!
Thy Saints lose to Atlanta? This guy here.Quote:

I guess these last five weeks will tell the tail, starting on Thursday night. I agree Matt could have a stronger arm but I'll take it. The best we have had in along time. We need a running game. Michael Turner is done in my opinion he's lost some steps.
The streak ends Thursday night.:p
