Vinatieri most definitely is first ballot. Suggs prob too. Yanda and Keuchly were both dominate enough to get in eventually and Eli has the super bowls. Lynch might have a chance. The rest shouldn't sniff the hall but since they let Hester and Mongo in anyone can get in

Luke had a shorter career but he was the best linebacker of his generation and I don't think it's particularly close tbh.

When he was in his prime he was a force of nature.

Eli and Lynch and probably Vinatieri should be, but :shrug:.

I really want to be a homer and say Vernon Davis is, but again :shrug:

I know it won't be considered the same way, but if Eli is supposedly first ballot because of super bowls and the narrative, that applies even more to Vinatieri

They elected Mongo before Antonio Gates who played forever and at a reasonably high level lol

Eli should already be in if that's the standard

Do you guys even know how the football HOF works

Mongo was a Senior inductee, not on the modern ballot. Nobody voted him over Gates or anybody else.

Also the voters don't really give a poo poo about "first ballot," that's a baseball thing. Which is why I'm very confident Eli won't get in right away.

I dislike the giants and have no reason to like Eli, but he's a first ballot lock. He has two superbowl wins, both over the Tom Brady pats. He's guaranteed.

Glad Hester got in. He's the best that's ever been at his position and there's never been another like him.

Eli is going to get in but he's clearly not anywhere close to a HOF stats wise.

The most important stat for a QB is ringz and he’s got two.

Eli wasn't even a top 5 QB at any point in his career. Big deal if his defense carried him to a couple rings and he got lucky on one throw.

He wasn't even top 10 if you just count the regular season.

Tell that to Phil Simms and Charlie Conerly (also famous New York quarterbacks who won titles, and neither of them got close to the Hall).

I don't think Eli is the lock y'all assume he is.

Just keep looking at what we're doing, keep watering and ask yourselves first and know 'Are you watering? And are you fertilizing every day?' So when it's time to pop, it'll pop.
Can't tell the story of clownball without Eli. First ballot.

Eli will get in more because of his name than anything he did on the field.

He will get in because of two passes that happened in a super bowl and he won both of them

Mongo is a weird choice when there are much better DL from around his era that haven't been elected. Why the gently caress isn't Jim Marshall in.

He's a lock. New York, The Giants are a white hat franchise, 2 Super Bowls, he's a well liked media friendly guy who is VERY visible, "Manning".

His counting stats are also good enough. Currently 10th in career passing yards and Touchdowns, and I think he was as high as 6th in Passing Yards when he retired. Efficiency stats are a different story
