Eli Manning is a better quarterback than Peyton Manning

Eli had a great career. Two Super Bowls. Yeah, beat Tom Brady. How did that happen? The better Manning. The better of the two Mannings. Easily, in my estimation. Never lost Super Bowl.

This is a subjective legacy argument, though most would disagree based on stats.

Eli Manning needs to retire

Sir, Eli Manning, sir. Please retire. I've seen enough. The Giants offensive line is bad, and it's the worst combo possible because the Giants offensive line is bad, and Eli Manning is also a Hall of Fame self-sacker. And he can't – he just – like, it's just not there.

Eli Manning played through the 2019 season before retiring in early 2020.

Saquon Barkley is the closest modern equivalent to Barry Sanders

Saquon Barkley is absolutely incredible. Breathtakingly so. He is as close to Barry Sanders as we're going to get in terms of that squatty body, huge-ass legs, makes everyone miss.

Barkley won Offensive Rookie of the Year in 2018 and has had a prolific, if injury-marred, career.

The Eagles season is officially saved after beating the Giants

Eagles season is saved. Carson Wentz, there was no QB controversy. But Carson Wentz, Eagles season saved. They're now 3-3, which is essentially like a 10-game lead in the NFC East.

The Eagles finished 9-7 and made the playoffs as a Wild Card, though they didn't win the division.

The Brewers' pressure created their 'lucky' breaks

That's not luck. That's just the Brewers and what they did to you mentally, where it's like you have to be perfect and almost made teams just become a worse version of themselves because of what the Brewers were doing to them.

This is an evaluative baseball argument rather than a claim with one definitive result.

The Bears are building around Jeffrey Simmons correctly

Jeffrey Simmons is an absolute game wrecker. Top three at his position, changes everyone around him. The Bears had a weakness in their defense, especially run defense. They made it a strength.

The assessment of Simmons' impact and positional ranking is partly subjective and will depend on his Chicago performance.
