Foles was a very bad QB who got one extremely lucky and well timed hot streak and won a SB. Flacco was a below average QB who got one extremely lucky and well timed hot streak and won a SB. Eli was just a dead average QB who got two extremely lucky and well timed hot streaks and won two SB.

Did Manning even get "hot" in those SB's?  17-14 in 2008 and 21-17 in 2012.  I always felt the defense was the factor.

If Tyree didn't make the helmet catch in '08, they wouldn't have won that one.

Wait a minute now...

If Eli didn’t break the grasp of the defender that was about to sack him, and then throw it up for Tyree then they wouldn’t have won 1. 

Also if Eli doesn’t make one of the top 10 most perfect placed passes in NFL history they wouldn’t have won 1. The Mario Manningham catch.

If Eli didn’t see the CB fall to the ground then maybe he doesn’t throw the ball to Burress, but Eli threw it up for Burress to beat the undefeated Patriots in the Super Bowl.

Eli is 8th all time in yards passing with 57,023. Romo is 34th all time in yards passing with 34,183, which is 2,111 than our good buddy Mark Brunell.

Eli and Romo made the PB 4 times.

Eli has won 2 Super Bowls while Romo has never been to a Super Bowl. 

How can a QB be drafted #1 overall, make the Pro Bowl 4 times, Win 2 Super Bowls, 2 Super Bowl MVP’s, and retire as the 8th all time in passing yards, 9th all time TDs, 

I will bet every dollar I got that Romo will never ever be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

As far as Phillip Rivers he is 5th all time in passing yards and 5th all time in TDs. He had (12) 4,000 yard seasons and was an 8 time Pro Bowler. I just don’t see how you don’t indict a player that retires with the 5th most passing yards ever.

How can Eli not be a Hall of Famer with his resume, and the same can be asked about Rivers.

But Tony freakin Romo ? He’s not even in the discussion. Not even close.
