a) No one in this thread said he was a bust. We said he has problems.
b) Those comparisons are almost meaningless IMO. QBs don't win SBs, TEAMS do. Simms has no rings without LT. Namath has a ring despite his play in the finals and off-field actions. His D dragged him to the top. If you want to rate them as individuals, Eli had a lower passer rating than fucking Romo last season. That's not good enough, not just for a #1 overall, but for our #1 QB. He has to improve. I expect more than "not a bust".
