Re: Marc Bulger vs Eli Manning

Tough call because, as Chris pointed out, Eli is younger and still has upside. I think Bulger is more consistent, more accurate, and is less likely to turn the ball over. Eli is better at avoiding sacks and is just starting to show a knack for making clutch plays, but you're talking about one guy with a career QB rating of 73 (Eli) and another with a career rating of 88 (Marc).

Furthermore, Bulger has shown the ability to function in a difficult timing-based attack like Saunders'. Even quarterbacks who are good at finding the open man can struggle with an offense that asks the quarterbacks to put the ball exactly where the receiver is going to be if he runs the route correctly.
