Eli helped stop Brady from having two more rings and kept the cheating Patriots from having a perfect season.

The HOF overemphasizes QBs. Film at 11.

It's all a popularity contest anymore. And obligatory Manning reference.

Eli will get in . Rivers nope
[Reply]

Eli should, Rivers shouldn’t. Rivers can be in the hall of good.

Eli was the QB of 2 super bowl winners, including one being an historic comeback against a (previously) 18-0 team.

Rivers is well inside the top 10 of pretty much every passing category there is.

Nitpick all you want, but electing those guys is not the "NFL going soft". There are many more questionable picks already in the Hall than those guys.

Eli has 2 rings.

Rivers is his generation’s Marino.

Pretty simple.

Eli deserves it just for keeping the pedophile from two rings.

Rivers got a lot of DBs paid, well. Eli is the Great Pumpkin, or something.
[Reply]

So does Phil Simms.

It’s the hall lowering their standards over the years more than anything

It’s a business. They have to keep adding to the cupboard to keep the customers happy.

Well I guess if that cheating Donx scum Davis can get in for two Super Bowls and nothing else, they might as well induct Eli.
[Reply]

Except he wasn't half as talented as Marino.
[Reply]

Eh, I would argue that he's not anywhere close to Marino. Marino was clearly the best quarterback of his generation other than maybe Montana. Rivers wasn't in the top 20 percent of his generation.

This is the only valid argument for Eli. But I have a very strong position that no one who tries to cheat the draft system should ever be considered for the Hall of Fame.

No Eli Manning.
No Bo Jackson.
No John Elway.
No Kelly Stouffer.

None of those guys was good enough anyway. Just snuff them all off the list and forget about them.
