Enough said..
    Really getting tired of hearing how Eli is an elite QB when evidence is to the contrary statistically, W/L wise, etc:

    Eli has hardware and look at his career playoff stats and his playoff record. That to me = Elite.

    The Ravens will be in the playoffs even if they finish 9-7 unless both Pittsburgh & Cincinnati finish at 9-6-1--win their remaining games except tie with one another. Considering that in the last 10 years' worth of regular season play--over 2,560 games--there have been exactly 2 ties (PHA@CIN, 11/16/2008, and STL@SF, 11/11/2012), that ain't bloody likely. They'll still be drafting at #21 or worse.
    Sure it can losing 5 in a row to end a season or 6 in row will cost coaches jobs, that's what we want.

    Eli's hardware isn't all about what Eli did to get it. And Flacco's playoff record isn't exactly shit either. Ignore the other stats and the fact that he also hasn't lit the world on fire, nor has he put his team on his shoulders at any point in his career, and he's not elite. He's a good QB that makes/made a lot of the same mistakes Flacco has, gets hot and cold too, throws gawd awful picks sometimes, and got some help from David Tyree to win his first SB.

    If Peyton Manning didn't exist, no one would think Eli is elite. His name gets him that.

    Re: Lose out

    I see both sides but I just can't wish them to lose out. At this point I'm so pissed off and emotionally drained that it doesn't bother me if they lose anymore. Today's game actually made me laugh, I'm just numb to this season. But in my heart of hearts I truly believe that we can hot at the right time. Someone said above jimmy smith may not be valuable coming back and you may be right, but the op also said Ellerbe suggs and ray which will make a difference. Combine that with cam actually running rice today and you have an average team that has shown flashes of brilliance and has the capability to put points on the board. You can look at this one of two ways. One as a team that has done something this year they didn't last year, excluding the last two weeks is win the close games and games they should. Two you could flip that and say we're lucky to be 9-4 and should have lost to kc,dal,sd,cle etc. The point is we didn't, we are who we are. I could sit here and say injuries aren't an excuse , next man up... Etc etc, but the point is our top two corners are out, hall of fame MLB out, dpoy out, starting MLB out. The ravens do not have the depth nor the talent to withstand those kinds of losses and yet we are still 9-4. I am completely on board for getting Cameron and pees out of here but you have to take the good with the bad. The ravens have been extremely fortunate to not have many huge injuries in seasons past but this year it has hit hard. This combined with the winning ways as of late and lack of talent due to cap issues and you have an extremely spoiled fan base. I will never root for my team to lose. You all sound like Cleveland fans, since when is making the playoffs considered a failure. The season starts week 18, ill be drunk and screaming my lungs out at my tv. Now and forever GO RAVENS!!

    I think anybody that says Eli Manning is elite yet criticizes Joe loses a little credibility. Theyre eerily similar with Eli having many more turnovers, which people typically criticize joe for his decision making. Thats also in a better offensive system, with much better talent. I cant see anything making him Elite.

    Re: Lose out

    This is the most embarrassing thread I've ever seen on this board. Have we inherited a bunch of Browns fans this season?

    Anyone still feeling this way this morning should just GTFO and back to your UFC DVDs and Madden franchise.

    1. Are you having trouble doing math today? Two. TWO!

    2. Marino is elite but we both know he'd rather have TWO rings than twenty-TWO NFL records

    Jim Plunkett won 2 superbowls... i can also do the math that says he threw more INTs than TDs and was only a 67.5 rated qb his entire career.

    Its a team sport and Eli had an astounding cast to win his two SBs. that doesnt mean hes one of the best Qbs in the league.
