This young man has gone from zero to hero and from worst to first. I’ve never seen such massive improvement over eleven games. I was at the game sitting in the south end zone which gave me a superb view of the secondary play and Eli was always in the right position. No Steeler receiver got over the top all day.

Not exactly true, as I think it was Apple that Claypool burned on the 41 yard bomb, but yes, overall, Eli has been pretty solid lately.
