Possibly. He's got a really good defense and a coach who believes in the run game (something McNabb has never had). I just don't understand how you can say McNabb is overrated. It's not like people have been calling him the best QB to ever play the game. Despite his injury history he's still easily a top 10 QB, and arguably top 5.

I agree his big game record isn't stellar, but if you go back and look at those games the losses were more to do with Andy Reid than McNabb.

Eli is much better than the mediocre QB's that have won the SB in the past.

Plaxico isn't that great and now that the team has had time to adjust to not having him Manning should be fine.

I don't think many teams would have done great losing their top WR unexpectedly late in the season.
Maybe, but Plax was a huge security blanket for Eli. Expect to see Eli toss up 15+ interceptions this year.
