Goodbye Eli

Recommended Posts

So to the people that think Eli belong in the Hall of Fame, do you all think Philip Rivers should be in the Hall of Fame?

no, it means when you compare it to a guy like Brady, who doesnt put his team in a whole more often, it makes the argument stupid

 

Brady has more comebacks and game winning drives than Eli lol oof

It's not, there's a few nerds that root for losers who thinks he isn't. Most people know he's easily in.

I know hes easily in, my argument is that he shouldn't be, and quite frankly, after Brady, Brees, Peyton and Rodgers, no QB in this century should be

So since he doesn't have a ring, he shouldn't get in...  Is that what you are saying??

Eli's record wouldve been 80-154 without those game winning drives, but sure they are meaningless lololol

Longevity is bad now? When you trade up to get a guy you’re praying for longevity. How’s Nate Kaeding doing? What was his longevity? Shawn Merriman?

he also lead the league in INTS that year, correlation?

Maybe in some of the games. I’m sure it was a factor. Says here he didn’t crumble. Picked his ass up and got it done.

longevity is a great thing, statistics based solely on them isnt

by the argument that Eli's 27 comeback wins is great, well then Rivers 27 comebacks is even greater, cause he did it in 2 less seasons

Stafford and Ryan have the most/yr of any top 15 guy, all these guys are in the same group

Also, if Dan Marino started playing in 2000-2005ish his career wouldn't of been good enough for HOF. Back then when there were only what 15 different QBs who had ever won a SB, sure maybe it isn't a disqualifying factor then but now days he definitely wouldn't be a lock.

if Dan Marino played now, he would have avg'd 5200+ yards and 40+ td's over his career

They were 9-7 when they won the SB. You live way to much by the stats instead of the moments they gave us.

Take away just one of those Td’s in those wins and they don’t win the Super Bowl that year. Amazing you only brought up the 9-7 and not the ring. You’re very unbiased.

Wow...  Just...  Wow...

RIvers has better stats across the board than Manning and saying he isn't Hall worthy just because he didn't win a ring is ludicrous...

you brought up the stats, I have already said multiple times, I know he gets in, I just argue that its not deserving, and neither are any of that other tier of QB's below the elite

No it isn't, you have to be a bit of a visionary. In 50 years the stat leaderboard will be littered with high stat players that never won anything. A ring is an important piece separating yourself from everyone else.

Because I know my audience, bunch of statheads. Which is why I thought my Warner argument would hold more water but it's apparent you're just biased.

Phillip Rivers may have one meaningful victory in his entire career. I think he beat Peyton and the colts in the playoffs once. Who didn’t? Lost at home to Sanchez and the Jets.

I get it, you phags all think everyone should get participation rewards and HOF votes, you probably think Joe Namath should be in as well

I personally dont care, but Eli (and again Rivers, Roeth, Ryan, Stafford)are all the same guys, who got in the right situation to win a SB and played barely good enough and got lucky to win.

I just think HOF should be for the greatest of the great, this has nothing to do with Eli, I made the same argument for MLB

You really  think  Big Ben doesn’t belong in the HOF? Why? What’s missing from his resume?

He is above Rivers and Eli, but again, he would probably be the closest to getting my vote, but I wouldn't be casting a vote for the 5th best QB of the century

Salty SD fan, Rivers is the only one of the 3 out of the 2004 rookie class that didn't get a ring. With Eli I can at least see how you can make an argument, even though I don't agree with it at all, but saying Big Ben isn't great is just stupid.

how many focking times to I have to say the best of the best, Roeth has had a great career, hes right on the edge, hes closer than Larry Walker, and I know he gets in as well, thats still not what I am arguing

Why?

average career, albeit long, hes the Curtis Martin of now.  Never lead the league in rushing, never lead in TD's. Good career, not elite, which again is my criteria

The 500 record is more about unfruitful drafts for years than Eli. When Eli had the horses he rode them to the finish line. Jerry Reese spent  years striking out in the draft. JPP and OBJ basically his only hits. Drafted two top ten first round busts, Eli Apple and Flowers. You strike out on two top ten picks two years in a row it’s going to hurt. In 2016 when they broke down and spent on Fa’s they won 11 games. Even with that idiot McAdoo in charge. 

This post seems to say that he is only a winner if he has top draft picks that pan out around him. No? BTW  I am putting this mildly for you. Go ahead and call me a loser now I will hang up and listen lol
