No joke. But even worse, and I can't believe I am here saying this, but how about a little Eli love? The guy has won two super bowls and is coming off a monster season. Good grief....

Eli has to be Level 2 at worst. The guy is turning into a stud, like it or not.

While the irrational part of me hopes he dies a painful death, the rational part of me recognizes Eli Manning cannot be listed in Tier 3 after engineering two game winning touchdown drives in the Super Bowl. Say what you want about the Helmet Catch, there was no luck involved in that Manningham play. He's good. It sucks. Oh well.

Agreed that makes no sense, especially when you see Cam Newton in that category. He should be knocked down to "Good Enough" at most. Luck and RGIII should be knocked down to "Hope" until at least the play an actual game. Sanchez and Palmer should be in "prove us wrong" and Weeden and Tanehill should be in "Hope"

Tom Coughlin asked that he be placed there so he can play the disrespect card again.

Agreed. He's up there at Next Level. The only reason Peyton isn't Top Shelf is due to injury.

The only way this list makes any sense is if Eli and Cam somehow got switched...

I agree to an extent. I don't think that Eli is a "stud" per se, but he's won two Super Bowls and has done so by engineering final scoring drives to put his team up for good, no matter how lucky one of them was. IMO, he belongs at Level 2.
