Eli Manning

y has Vince Wilfork’s talks stalled when Nick Kaczur and Mark LeVoir can get extensions? With Eli Manning and Phillip Rivers getting mega deals, what will Tom Brady ask for when his negotiations open up? If Ted has four oranges and Mike has seven, then what is the capital of Scandinavia?

Would the New York Giants be in position to defend their title with David Carr in place of Eli Manning? Hell no!

Would the Indianapolis Colts had extended their streak of consecutive 10-win seasons led by Jim Sorgi with Peyton Manning giving him tips from the sideline? Absolutely not.

The biggest problem I have with this idea is Eli Manning.

How can a football team really be great with a quarterback like Eli Manning? He is playing behind what many believe to be the best offensive line in football. His defense has perhaps the best line in football as well. They also have not one, but three great running backs to hand the ball to. His receiving threats are all over the field on every play, yet Eli only has a rating of 88.8.

Ok, look. Just think about all the lucky plays that went in favor of the Giants. Yes, Eli Manning should have been sacked on that miracle play in the fourth quarter.

I have never claimed to be an expert when it comes to predicting outcomes of football games, although last year I nearly predicted the exact final score of the Super Bowl while hitting on seven of my nine prop bets. (My prediction was 26-17, the final was 29-17.) For whatever reason I had a very good feel for that game. This year's Super Bowl, however, remains a mystery to me. Part of the reason I am having trouble getting a good feel for this game is that I am a bitter Jets fan and I can't stand either team. I'm finding it difficult to put my personal feelings aside and look at the game objectively. I think right now I am as close to objectivity as I am going to get, and with that being said, here is my official Super Bowl XLII prediction.
