lol no im not naive to say Eli hasn't said ow when taking a sack just like everybody else has. But he has 100% dealt with farrrr less injuries than Ben. That's durability not toughness.
Eli doesnt even deny his injury history.
i like the emphasis on being fortunate cause i feel that plays a big role in this sport.

Ben is an entirely different beast. It looks like 3 lions attacking a god damn buffalo to take him down. Gotta hit his ankle, knee, and head because he refuses to go down

You cant help the team on the sideline.
Part of toughness is being available.

Just bc dudes aren't on the injury report don't mean they aren't playing hurt
Nobody in the league is 100% healthy everyone is hurting one way or another

Ben had his goddamn nose broken after essentially being punched in the face on the field. Never missed a snap.

Eli the type of guy to just drop to the ground before getting sacked anyway. Ben is like bring it all three 260-300+ pound dudes. Just broke a rib that's nice. And does that over and over and over again.
But Eli is more tough lol

I think Ben and Romo are tough but they've missed a lot. I see both sides of the argument.
Eli has played through a few injuries. We don't know them all and I've seen him get his *** beat on the field and not even look at a ref. Guy is a soldier.

Bedard on what's wrong with the Packer offense:
mixed in point three is the receivers taking too long to get open

Being durable goes along with being tough
Like saying my truck is tough and built to last yet its always in the shop.

when you made out of glass you not tough. Durability goes hand in hand with toughness. Brett favre was known as the toughest QB, cause he never missed games..
iron man .
In baseball Cal ripkin was known as the iron man for that exact same reason. Don't get why it's that hard to understand. It's pretty simple .

Romo is fragile . don't get how fragile can be tough. That's an oxymoron.
Yeah he's broken a lot. Unfortunate but Other QBs take the same amount of hits or more and don't get injured like that. I'm a Cowboys fan and a Romo fan but it is what it is. I call a spade a spade.

If anything, Romo is definitely tough. Dude's always hurt even when he does play. Dealing with back issues is no joke, trust me.

I'd say Ben has to be the toughest QB in the league. Eli is durable as hell.

Who did?
I know Skip Bayless said Manziel was gonna be good
The majority of NTers slurped the hell out of him
Yeah dudes were high on Manziel because he was literally a human highlight reel in college. People didn't know the extent of his drug/alcohol problems back then though. Did he like to hit frat parties and bars? Yes, but we just chalked that up to him becoming a 20 year old god on campus
I said dude's best case scenario was Jeff Garcia.. Tiny and not that fast.. Was funny during the combine his unofficial 40 was like a 4.5 something and you thought he might be quick enough to pull it off
Then the official 40 was like 4.7.. And dude even before the partying and heavy dudes and just flat out not caring dude never was solidly built
Russ Wilson runs a 4.5 and at least got some build to him at his under 6 ft height.. And Vick was fast as shhh and still more built than dude and had a canon
