To throw stats around like it makes a big deal in the end what his numbers were is stupid. All that matters is winning and the fashion in which Eli won the superbowl is on par with any great win in the likes of Montana and Elway. Tony is not elite in any sense of the word. The only elite QBs in the league is Peyton and Brady. Tony has never won a playoff game and he has probably the 2nd or 3rd best offense in the league. There's no excuse for that performance if you want to say he's a elite QB. Lets face it Tony is very overrated. Anyone would have great numbers in an offense that features TO, Whitten, and Barber. At this point in his carreer, Tony isnt even good enough to lick Eli or Big Ben's cleats, the QB's who I consider to be on the second tier below the two real elite QB's I've mentioned. Also those haters of Vince Young are just stats people as well. Vince is a game changing player. Thats why the Titans are a playoff team again and thats why Vince dominated the Rose Bowl. Vince is a winner flat out. No amount of yards, TD's, and BS stats that people keep up with can measure what a clutch QB looks like. So those of you stats people who want to measure players by numbers, enjoy the off season with Romo and the Cowboy's, cause their season ended in shambles. I'll stick with the players (like Eli and Vince Young) who come through in the final two minutes when it really counts. P.S. These group of Cowboys choked again this year and will probably choke again sometime in the future. The future of the NFC belongs in New York and enjoy the off season cause I am. Go Big Blue!

But he couldn't have won the super bowl without the help of the amazing d-line the giants have. So madden should really think about putting Justin Tuck or Osi Umenyirora. Those guys came up huge in that game as individuals and as a line with 5 sacks on Tom Brady; they should have been MVPs as a d-line even espn's sports' guy agrees with me.

First off, Romo complete 18 of 36 passes. Hitting 50% is not a good game last I checked. Also I believe it was Romo who threw that final interception. In what league is that a good game? The Giants weren't lucky, the Cowboys got out played. The Giants just wanted that game more. As for Kee's comment, that's just ignorant. The black comment is just not needed. Even worse, claiming a punter is one of the two most important positions is too stupid for words.
