To give some perspective, most of his losses came after 2012, where he spent most of his years pointing to his linemen where the blitz was coming from, and they still got worked like a wet paper towel, i dont think it was all just eli being surrouned by a talented oline earlier in his years, eli, has a big brain and he uses it for the sport, hes extremely smart and has great instincts that get over looked. Heres an interesting stat, the only time Daniel Jones was had a 12th grade pass blocking oline was his rookie season, back when eli was playing big brother on the sidelines. He was tough as a work horse, stayed out of trouble, made huge plays in big moments, got the giants the lead cosntantly just for the defense secondary to blow it, and was a staple for the giants 15 years. I mostly have faith in DJ because Eli is being honest when he says he believes, but we will see. I went over the top 20 qbs of all time with my friend whos an eagle fan and big on football too, and we came to the conclusion that Eli fairly falls in the 18-14th ranked range.
