No Quarterback Has Had More Big-Time Throws in a Season Than ’11 Eli Manning (Post-2006)

What’s the definition of a big time throw? Just curious since I don’t see this stat floated around a lot.
I love this fact. Peak Eli, man that guy made miraculous throw after miraculous throw. People acted like his completions were just luck.
Can somebody explain what constitutes a “big-time throw”?
Tf is a big time throw
Iloved Eli, and think he had a knack for amazing down field passing that is over looked often but this state feels completely made up for engagement
The throw to Manningham was something else. You know which one.
❤️💙❤️💙❤️🐐
Eli deserves to be in the Hall and I think he’ll get there. He might be in his 50’s by the time it happens, but it will happen.
“hE WaS cArRiEd”
And the national media will never talk about it because it would upset their precious TB12. All these past Super Bowl highlights leading up to the big game and it’s like the Tyree or the Manningham catches never existed.
Almost 6200 yards of passing from September to February.
The disrespect this man gets in the regular subs. I don’t get it.
2 Super Bowl wins and beating the Pats perfect season = HOF
Lol was his arm photoshopped here?
Unforgettable season.
He would drop back and just seem to heave it 40 yards down the field. Then somehow, more often than not, Hicks, Cruz or Manningham would come down with it.
the defense carried him to the super bowl /s
He was the NFL MVP that year and nobody can tell me otherwise
B-b-but he didn’t win a playoff game outside the SB runs! Yeah, pretty sure most HoF QBs would trade their career for his in an instant 😂
Miss this guy, will always be my fav QB! especially those SB wins over Thomasina Brady
I’m hoping he gets into the fall within the next 2 years. He absolutely deserves it. The game is about winning and Eli 100% did that.
That is an incredible stat. And that 2011 team should have gone something like 13-3 in the regular season, not 9-7. They were awesome, just lost focus and lost a bunch of stupid games (including 2 games to washington!).
The 2011 season was magical. 2007 was awesome, obviously but ’11 felt special throughout the whole year. Eli was more important to the giants success than any other player on any other team.
Big time fwoahs
Do we have a definition of “big time throws” or is it just obviously “3rd or 4th down throw to keep the drive moving white in the 4th quarter with less than 2 minutes to play?”
