That said, the bits of the season I was lucky enough to catch this year made him look easily flustered, streaky, and generally not the superstar we saw in 2008. I think there is great potential there, but I think the greater potential is in Rivers, for the reasons that guy above me said.Lapsarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13785622541619710225noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2605696051818473134.post-44259800474571902592010-04-21T19:08:47.644-04:002010-04-21T19:08:47.644-04:00Weren't people arguing that Eli was "Bett...Weren't people arguing that Eli was "Better than Peyton" last year? If you're playing better than the best in the league- I think Steve Young calls that "living up to huge upside." Yes Ben has the rings, but when you played the 06 & 09 Steeler, you were worried about the defense, not Big Ben. Ben is the best out of the pocket. But I would argue for Rivers. SD never has a good defense, so the pressure is on Rivers to win. <br />This is one hell of a debate. But I'd take Eli AT HIS BEST over the other two.Peterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14527718736665564044noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2605696051818473134.post-81127368141850748982010-04-21T18:51:49.885-04:002010-04-21T18:51:49.885-04:00I will throw in the obligatory old man post starti...I will throw in the obligatory old man post starting with "I once saw....."
