Is Philip Rivers a HOFer?

[SteelersPride]

Wow you're just a pup then....

ha i suppose

 

[Schmoopy1000]

And Boomer Esiason, Stafford, McNabb, Ken Anderson, Romo, Cousins...


None of it is going to happen.

Ken Anderson should already be in the HOF, IMO

So was I, I watched SB I on our black and white tv....So like the guy from farmers insurance says, I know a thing or two because I've seen a thing or two....

Yup.

 

[WC. Moses]

25 tds a year is not a hof'er sorry its just longevity.......thats mediocrity in todays nfl..

He may well average 30 plus over the next 8 years. I was just showing 470 tds is very obtainable if he stays healthy. He may end up with 500 or more, but he won't need that many to qualify in my guess-timation.

He’s comparing eras and it don’t work

But, era's overlap in many cases.

So while you might be comparing beginning and end of careers, you still have relatively comparable data.

If you really give a shit about that stuff.

Because I always just wanted somebody to win. In the current talent level/rule configuration.

Just win baby.

Loved me some Phil Esposito though.

Do I have to list the HOF QBs who never won a title ? start with Dan Marino and Fran Tarkenton.
If Ryan's stats are good enough, he'll get in.

They both retired as the alltime yardage leaders in league history.


Both 9 time Pro Bowlers.


Not comparable to your boy.

 

[broncosmitty]

Hank Aaron was a juicer also.

 

[FaCe-LeE-uS]

@FaCe-LeE-uS weigh in here @night thinks Ben did nothing to help with the super bowls and was carried

Why bother? I'll just let that 1st ballot gold jacket rustle his jimmies somethin fierce...

True, funny he ignored my responses no one denies Ben had some shitty playoff games

Yea early on in his career he had some atrocious playoff games.

Did anyone ever think of Rivers as a top 3 QB in any year he played?

If you read thru you'll see I was responding to a post that said we need to adjust what it takes to get into the HOF.
I was showing that is already the case.
It takes a whole lot more production to get in now than in past eras.
If Ryan ends his career north of 400 tds and just half as many ints, he will have earned his way in to my thinking.

Matt Ryan isn't HOF material, get over it.

 

[redseat]

Probably... But he certainly is one hell of a whiner.... Yet he won't get called out for it since he doesn't yell "F8CK!"
