THE MORNING BREW Peyton or Eli? Which brother is better?
While the Super Bowl may have answered many questions for football fans
Peyton or Eli?
such as the big one, "Who is the best team?" - it also left another primary question that will dangle over future football seasons.
This, of course, refers to the quarterbacks and brothers Peyton Manning and Eli Manning. Eli's New York Giants beat the New England Patriots in the Super Bowl 21-17. As the quarterback, Eli cemented himself as a legend, taking home his second Super Bowl Most Valuable Player award.
Peyton is one of, if not the, most prolific quarterbacks in NFL history. The four-time MVP has won one Super Bowl and was the MVP in the Super Bowl game as well.
Here are both cases for which Manning brother has more ground in football's history:
PEYTON:
Just five years ago, it would be nearly
impossible to believe this discussion would be happening. Big brother Peyton was well established as one of the NFL's best quarterbacks of all time, before Eli ever passed the first round of the playoffs.
The career achievements for Peyton certainly stack higher than brother Eli. Peyton is an 11-time Pro Bowl player, six-time AFC player of the year, the fastest quarterback to ever reach 50,000 passing yards and the fastest to complete 4,000 passes.
More than that Peyton is a brilliant leader of one of the most prolific and original NFL offenses ever. The quarterback calls his own plays at the line of scrimmage and has become one of most popular names in American households for nearly 10 years.
Peyton is an NFL legend — and even though an injury kept him off the field this season — he is still considered one of the league's best.
ELI:
It's now safe to say that little brother Eli has surpassed the hyperbolic expectations set for him when he was drafted in 2004.
He just won his second Super Bowl and has two MVP trophies from the title games to go along with the rings.
In both Super Bowl victories, Eli led inspiring go-ahead drives in the final minutes of the game. Those were the type of drives that make great players legends.
The first drive, in 2008, contained a play that NFL films called "the play of the decade." Eli escaped pressure from three defenders and lofted a 32-yard pass that receiver David Tyre pinned to his helmet. Four plays later, the
Giants scored, and took 17-14 lead to seat the Super Bowl victory.
On Sunday, Eli and the Giants recreated their magical 2008 drive. Starting with a 38-yard pass to Mario Manningham, the Giants scored on a drive with 57 seconds left to give them another Super Bowl victory.
While Peyton's career numbers are more impressive than Eli, the younger Manning brother has become a clutch commodity, something Peyton can't say.
The answer: Stay tuned. Peyton still has a few years of football left to play and Eli's career is just coming into full blossom.
