To the question, I was simply amazed that SD drafted Manning when they did. I thought that Brees was their franchise QB at the time for years to come.

But from what I recall Brees was gone shoulder injury or no injury from SD. That is just hear say on my part.

The bigger question is what would have happened if Eli Manning was QB for SD right now? Any Super Bowls yet?

Man... I'm glad that didn't happen.
IMO, Eli is average at best and it's a joke that he got Super Bowl MVP. If it wasn't for his last name, he wouldn't have been a #1 draft pick. Probably not even top 10.

Not only did we get the better QB but we also got Merriman and Keading out of this. Imagine where Giants could be now had they kept Rivers?

Honestly... if we had Eli, I think we'd suck. Rivers is the reason we are where we are right now. He carried the team on his back for at least 7 games. I don't believe Eli could have done that.
