Everyone is going to vote for Freeman other than one person, I'm sure we can all figure out who.

Eli by far.

Eli vs. Romo is closer than this.

Freeman.
Much better high potential, better leader, stronger arm, more accurate, better size and strength, football smarts etc.
Wins in every category.

And no, Freeman > Romo > Manning.

I still lmao at him having 25 INTs last year.
You know you can't trust a veteran QB with more career INTs than games played.

We'll go second season, because it's Freemans first full season.

By the numbers.

Freeman - 291-for-474 | 61.4 Comp% | 3451 Yards | 25 Touchdowns | Six INT's | 364 Yards Rushing | 5.4 YPC.
Manning - 294-for-557 | 52.8 Comp% | 3762 Yards | 24 Touchdowns | 17 INT's | 80 Yards Rushing | 2.8 YPC.

Manning had two all-pro weapons in Shockey and Barber. Not to mention the likes of Burress and Toomer. To go along with that there were four first round top-20 selections on that offense. Plus three second round selections rounding up the starting 11 on offense. Only one of those linemen went un-drafted.

Freeman had two Pro Bowlers, both linemen. A first round running-back that's only duty was blocking, and he failed. Freeman had one other first round weapon. Winslow, whom has been to one Pro Bowl.

You put Freeman on that Giants team and they win more than 11 games. You put that Giants team in Tampa, they win more than 10 games.

You put Freeman on the Jets and they may have an AFC title in their bag.

Now I must go interview Larry Asante. I'll await your rebuttal.

Comparing Eli's second season to Freeman's is irrelevant. Never understood why people bring up age in arguments like these.

Nevertheless, it's Freeman.

What exactly has Freeman led them to? Third place in a mediocre division?

Potential? Really?

Size- 6'4 at 220 isn't anything to scoff at either.

Stronger arm- If Freeman's is stronger, it's not by much. Eli truly does suffer from playing up North.

Football smarts? Eli runs one of the most complex offenses in the NFL.

You know you can trust a QB who finished in the top five in: passing yards and passing TD's despite missing his top two WR's for a significant portion for the season.

Freeman's body of work is too small to compare him to Eli.

He's played 2 years on a rebuilding team.
Manning clearly is very football smart throwing 25 picks in a year.
Yup, youre right.

Roughly half of those picks were tipped balls off of his own WR's hands.

Stick to hockey, please.

No, actually, they weren't. Freeman has a much stronger arm and does it all with a bad offensive coordinator.

Mediocre division? Haven't the last two regular season NFC Champions been out of the South? Didn't the Super Bowl go to an NFC South team a just last year? What the hell is the NFC East doing besides becoming the new West.

The Packers are not from the NFC South.

The NFC East is certainly still a strong division, the Cowboys will bounce back.

Seeing as how in 2011 the Packers won. It's 2011 now. So last year would be 2010. Who won in 2010? Where's Nola at?

How does that make no sense? The Saints won the Super Bowl in 2010, did they not? IIRC, they did.
