Complete shot-in-the-dark guess, without looking anything up: is one Eli and the other Chad Kelly?

Did Eli even have a good WR to throw to? I don't remember much about OM during that time.

Bingo.

Eli was great and had less talent. However, the only thing that I think Eli had that was better than Chad was his ability to read defenses and his overall intelligence of the game. Chad was way more athletic and had vastly superior arm strength and his accuracy on deep throws is something I don't think Ole Miss will ever see again.

At the same time, I think people greatly underestimate how smart Kelly is about the game of football. He could read defenses and make adjustments at the line whenever he needed to.
