Eli Manning must be going crazy along with all the Giants fans, that’s the only way to explain this.
“I consider myself in that class, And Tom Brady is a great quarterback”
Lets just compare Eli Manning to Tom Brady from last season:

And then when you take a look at the comparison of their careers, the comparison becomes flat out laughable. Is it unfair to compare Eli to a guy who has won more games than Eli has started? Yeah. Do I care? No. Tom Brady is better in every single area. Not just the stats where Tom Brady would have the edge because he has played more, every single one.

Eli can’t be dumb enough to compare himself to Brady, let alone say he is just as good, right?
