My point is given by your own admission that they are similar statistically, the fact that Eli and Big Ben have won the SB twice each is pretty damning for Rivers and gives them the edge. Two SB victories by QB's their age is really nothing to sniff at. And a 3rd for each of them is hardly a stretch of the imagination. Eli's winning percentage is .580. Average winning percentage of playoff eligible teams is .625.

He's had 4 seasons where he would qualify, 2005, 2007, 2008, 2010.

Rivers has 3 seasons, 14-2, 11-5, 13-3, despite having a winning percentage of .656

Eli has a 43 percent chance (ignoring his rookie season), of getting a 10 win season. Over 7 seasons, we'd expect to see exactly 3. He has 4. Rivers has about a 75 percent chance of getting a 10 win season, every season. He has 3 so far.

Statistics show that Rivers is unlucky, while Eli is lucky. All else being considered equal.

a consistently good defense Aahahahahahahahahahaha.

No. Sorry.

Eli has been carried by his defense all his career. Rivers last year was all they had, no defense, no rb, no receivers.
