Eli has won another Super Bowl and has proven clutch in the playoffs, throughout his career, but has always been a question mark in the regular season.
Peyton has dominated regular seasons throughout his career only to usually fall flat in the playoffs.  He has won 1 Super Bowl and lost another in which he threw the deciding interception.
 
Who do you think is the better QB?  Is it about stats or championships?


Time always wins.

Honestly I've seen one really good season from Eli, one really good postseason, and one good postseason. I could look and say he's better than Peyton eventually, but I'm not going to say that yet.

Neither is better, picking Eli just because.

There are lies, damn lies, and statistics as they say...so don't ever trust the stats (at least not the basic ones)

I'd like to say Eli of course,. Tongue
 
But hard to say anything really. I can't really talk about legacies until their careers are over. Personally, you have to look at both...stats (yards, td, win percentage, etc) and championships to get the "best". But again...too early to talk about all of that. Hopefully eli has many more years, and even Peyton will probably have a couple more years somewhere (even if they aren't up to his typical greatness).
Dig me...But don't...Bury me

Not to be a semanticist (wait when has that stopped me!?) I do say he's had one great season, 2011. An elite season.
And some good ones: 08, 09 and I'll even say 2010 (I dont give him "credit" for all 25 picks but certainly a good bit)

Before 08 he was good, not great but good though inconsistent.

As for playoffs:
05- no doubt he was just not ready
06- played fine, dont blame him for the loss
07- brilliant
08- deff got messed up by the Eagles, bad game
11- brilliant

When all is done we'll look at it and maybe Eli will be better but yeah, even I have to agree...I can't say that yet
