Soon to be Hall of Famer - Eli Manning

[NEPatsfan]

He's not a longshot. Name another QB that has thrown for nearly 50,000 yards, has 300+ TD's, has 100+ regular season W's & is a 2x SB mvp that's not in the HOF. Like it or not he's got the #'s to get into Canton someday.

In the pass flush years, wow I'm shocked he did it, what a warrior.

He wouldn't be the first highly over rated QB to make it in, I would agree.

As a Pats fan you're just pissed Eli beat Brady twice in the biggest of all games. That's why you're trying to diminish what he's done.

You should apply this standard to Thomas Brady when you call him the GOAT

"No, No, No"

Then there is no point in having a Hall.

Here is the rub,

If I made the case that Romo should go to the hall and post all his great stats, the first thing you or anybody else would say is that was crazy because he has no post season success.

If a 2 time SB MVP can't get into the hall ...than there is no reason to have one.

No actually. See my previous post. You seem a bit slow on the uptake this morning.

Pats fans, out of all people, dismiss "2 time SB MVP" as if its some sort of sidenote to a career

So that's the criteria now? Funny when that was used as a reason for Brady being HoF material some years back it was discounted as not enough. Oh how they sway with the wind.

It is when the stats are meh that go along with it.

Like I said, he's a serviceable QB in the NFL with meh stats, and flashes of greatness.

I dont remember Brady's candidacy ever be questioned for what he's done on the field

Unfortunately for you, those flashes of greatness and what was accomplished, are more important than any single stat that ever existed, cause its all any player at any position, actually plays for

 

[DirtDirtDirt]

Ok.

What are your HOF thoughts on Ben, Rivers and Brees?

 

[NEPatsfan]

Interesting.

E. Manning,




Romo,

 

[NEPatsfan]

Fair to say much better than Eli.

 

[NEPatsfan]

Roethlisberger,

Also better than Eli

 

[DirtDirtDirt]
