Tony Romo vs. Eli Manning

Well, they're at it again!

It all began when Eli Manning threw a terrible interception early in the game against the Saints. Dotson went off on Twitter about how Eli Manning is so great and "elite." Well, Dellaverson decided to fire back at Dotson's love for Tony Romo. The next couple of hours were very entertaining as they battled back and forth about being elite and about Super Bowl experiences.

Enjoy! And join the debate! Is either one elite? Why or why not?

 @3SNDot:              Has that ELIte quarterback thrown a good pass yet today? #nygiants down early. But Eli is amazing don't you forget.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3sndot he is better than Romo

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav that's comical. Will Romo get any credit for his game winning drive today? No. Eli gets canonized when he hands it off 3x on his.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3sndot In general, who would you rather have in a game winning superbowl drive?

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav if its "romo and cowboys" or "Eli and giants" I'd pick giants for the line. If its "average team" and I pick the QB, I pick Romo.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot so you don't pick the guy who has done it twice & has the experience & hardware. and you pick the guy who has none of that #facepalm

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav because Eli is not the one who did it. He made one good throw in each of those Super Bowls. I see 10x as many bad throws as good

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot Eli is not the one who did it? Okay, i guess Burress threw the game winning touchdown pass to himself.

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav YOU could've thrown that pass. ...okay maybe not... MY NIECE could've thrown that pass!

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot just in general, why would you not chose the guy who did it twice? You know he wont be rattled cause he did it before. Romo would be

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav so you would never want Dan Marino to be your QB in the Super Bowl then?

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot answer the question dotson. Then i will give you mine.

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav I don't care how many times you are there. You're a pro, you're going to be fine. #justagame

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot Okay. Marino threw 2 picks in his SB that he lost 38-16. & as far as a pro being just fine, you can tell that to neil o donnel #iwin

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav so first time Super Bowlers like Tom Brady, Aaron Rodgers, Peyton Manning, Trent Dilfer...they just don't count & Odonnell does?

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot You're missing the point, logic tells you to pick the guy who has the experience doing it. Its not like im saying a QB like romo

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot will never be able to do it. Im saying you have a better chance with the guy who HAS PROVEN he can do it compared to someone who

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot MIGHT be able to do it.

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav 20 Super Bowls featured a Super Bowl rookie QB vs. one with a prior Super Bowl under his belt. Experience is 12-8 (0-3 since '06)

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav four of those 12 wins were a rookie vs. a MULTI-SuperBowl winning QB, which is almost definite loss. Dead even there.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3sndot still according the numbers 4 more times the experienced qb has won and eli has won 2 superbowls since 2006. So in your face

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav Eli is one of those rookies who beat a seasoned veteran. Completely trashes your argument. In YOUR face.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3sndot ya eli, the guy i happen to be DEFENDING! #Letstakethistotheblogs

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav the last five Super Bowl LOSERS have Super Bowl WINNING experience. It's called trend analysis. #takeittothebank

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3sndot so you should go with trend rather than experience?

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav the TREND tells you to go AGAINST experience.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3sndot its not a big enough sanple size. Especially considering Elis 2 superbowl wins came from those last 5 years

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav Rodgers, Eli, Brees, Brady, Aikman, Terry Bradhaw. All win Super Bowl in first game vs. a QB with Super Bowl experience.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot Youre goin in circles. Its not like im saying its impossible, im saying logic tells you to go with the guy who has already done it.

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav &logic tells me to go with what's happened recently - that not only are the rookies just as likely to win, they do so more often.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot Fill in the blank. Tony Romo is deserving of Elite Status because______________________

 @3SNDot:              “@3snDeLlav: @3SNdot Fill in the blank. Tony Romo is deserving of Elite Status because” consistent with no line &he still gets the job done.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot Eli Manning is deserving of Elite Status because he has 2 superbowl rings with game winning drives. You tell me which fill in the

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot blank sounded better?

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav that answer is obvious. But I look BEYOND two games. Truly, neither should be considered elite. My team, I take Romo first.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot & that my friend is all i have been wanting to hear from you. I can settle and respect that conclusion if you want to leave the

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot debate like that. It was truly one for the ages

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav neither is elite. The word is overused. In terms of complete package, Romo is better. He is MORE DESERVING of the title than Eli.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot im ok with saying neither is elite but Id feel more comfortable making that opinion if Romo had a superbowl mvp and Eli didnt.

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot until then, I just cant. I dont know what else to say

 @3SNDot:              @3snDeLlav how about we let the fans decide then? Is Eli an elite QB? Should Romo be considered elite? What's needed for either to be elite?

 @3SNDeLlav:        @3SNdot I'm down with that. I guess at this point thats all there is left to do.
