Quarterback Eli Manning of the New York Giants has always been considered worse than his older brother and Indianapolis Colts quarterback Peyton Manning. But now that Eli has gotten the Giants to the super bowl again, I believe Eli has established himself as an elite quarterback. So is Eli now the better of the two Manning's? I personally don't think so yet. But if Eli beats the patriots in the super bowl on February 5th, then I think he will be the better Manning. This being because although Peyton has much better stats, Eli has had much more success in the playoffs. In the playoffs, Peyton has won 9 games and lost 10 in the postseason while Eli has 7 wins and only 3 losses.

Another factor that will help come to the conclusion of whose the better Manning is Peyton Manning's future with the Colts. Peyton didn't play the whole 2011 season due to a neck injury. And with the Colts receiving the number one pick in the NFL draft, Peyton Manning's future doesn't look complete with the Indianapolis Colts. As a Jets fan, I can only hope a great quarterback like Peyton Manning will get traded to the Jets.
