Eli Manning is on his way to a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, but the New York Giants quarterback hasn't been amongst the upper echelon of quarterbacks for quite some time.

Over his last 18 games, Manning has thrown for 4,486 yards, 27 touchdowns, and 18 interceptions...despite completing 64 percent of his passes.

As the Giants travel to face the Philadelphia Eagles Sunday, Manning has been compared to young Eagles quarterback Carson Wentz. Former NFL quarterback Chris Simms, now with NBC Sports, believes there isn't even a comparison between the two.

"I don't know if there's any other way to politely put this, but it's (father time) has already caught up with him," Simms said to Philly Sports Talk Thursday. "I would argue that Eli Manning was in the bottom-10 of quarterbacks last year. You got to remember this offense really struggled going back into last year.

"As you've seen in the first two weeks, he's certainly not on the level of Carson Wentz. Throwing the football downfield for explosive plays is not his strength and he's not the mobile in the pocket. He's not capable of moving around there as well."

Manning has completed 73 percent of his passes this season, but has just 459 yards with a touchdown and two interceptions for an 83.0 pass rating. Wentz has completed 60 percent of his passes for 640 yards, four touchdowns, two interceptions, and an 89.3 rating.

Both teams have each had offensive line issues though two games, but the Eagles continue to throw the ball down the field.

The Giants do not...as evidenced by Manning's 6.56 yards per attempt. Simms believes the Giants will use the same strategy come Sunday.

"You're going to see them throw a lot of short, quick passes... because they know they're not going to be able to block Brandon Graham and Fletcher Cox. Of course, Eli can't do a whole lot athletically."
