Here is a perfect example of Eli being more lucky than good.
Not once, but TWICE in the 2011 NFCC game vs. the f49ers, Eli threw boneheaded interceptions perfectly into the waiting hands of 49ers DBs.
The only reason those 2 passes weren't picked off is because the 49ers DBs smashed into each other both times, knocking EASY interceptions out of each others hands.

On first down, Manning threw complete to Hynoski in the flat for a gain of 9. On 2nd and 1, Manning went deep for Cruz - Rogers undercut the route for an interception, but Goldson ran into him. On 2nd and 10, Bradshaw took the carry for a 4-yard gain. On 3rd and 6, Manning from the shotgun threw incomplete - 4th down.

Goldson broke up easy interceptions by both of his teammates. Easy. Just asinine throws by Eli.
Pics of the 1st one Eli put right on Brown's fingers before Goldson blew him up.
Eli is luckier than any other sumbitch super bowl winning QB in history.
