Eli Outplays McNabb on 3rd Down
posted by Kevin on November 11th, 2008
Interesting tidbit here from Matt Mosley of ESPN.com that we didn’t talk about in our recap show (which…should be up any minute now? I figured it would be up already…ok then). He notes that while Eli Manning and Donovan McNabb had fairly similar numbers, Eli was much better on 3rd down which ultimately was the difference between their two performances. Take a look at the numbers. (By the way, since I can’t seem to post under the tables, that’s a 16 QB rating for McNab on 3rd down. Sixteen.)
Recap episode will be up any second now. It gets a bit heated at one point…
