If that's a HOF qualification, Jake Plummer should be a shoo-in. He was the first to ever beat Brady amd Belichick in the postseason.

I don't think that was Jake the Snake, I think was more the Indian burial grounds of Denver. Have TB & BB ever won a game in Denver?

Eli is a no doubter HOF...

just one google search on his numbers vs HOF QB 's will shut any talking head up.

Plus he's got the golden bullet on top of that. Only 5 QBs in HISTORY has two or more superbowl mvp trophies... your boy is one of them.

That ‘07 Giants team had no business beating my loaded Cowboys squad. But they did. Much respect. Good luck to Eli on his future endeavors.

All the best to him in retirement. I'm not so sure he's a Hall of Famer though the 2 Super Bowls probably helps his case.

A person would only think that Eli's numbers make him HOF worthy if a person doesn't properly understand Eli's stats. Yes, he compiled a bunch of stats, and his durability is remarkable, but he was a mediocre QB pretty much the whole time.

That said, I think that Eli will make it to the HOF. Undeserving, but he'll make it.

Only reason he's HoF possible is because it's the NFL. If the NFL had the standards of the MLB, no way in hell he makes it.

I feel the same way, although the baseball hall of fame will occasionally induct someone who doesn't deserve it.

Durability and stats is how you make the HOF. He was th Giants for a good part of his career.
