Mr. Nice! posted:Does Rivers rank higher than Romo all time? I know a lot of people don't think Romo is HoF worthy, and I think he's a better QB than Rivers. Romo had a much shorter career than Rivers, but had a better peak and was way more fun to watch. But Romo is not getting into the HOF either unless it's as a "contributor" in 50 years for his broadcast career.

He and Matt Ryan will have the same career of had a lot of games, lot of stats, no rings, no hall

Rivers is not close to a HoFer. The story of the NFL can easily be told without him, he has never done anything of note in the postseason, and is a serial choker. Being the 5th best QB at best in the league in your prime is nice but not HoF

Matt Ryan is a better player than Philip Rivers. Matt Ryan has repeatedly been let down in huge spots by his teammates, his defense and his coaches meanwhile Philip Rivers has routinely created new and innovative ways to lose games his entire career.

New question: if Philip Rivers is a hall of famer should Matt Ryan be a hall of famer? Based solely on comparative merit, ignore the idea that one bad decision doesn't mean you need to make another.

Hes gonna retire top 5 in every important passing statistic. He's going to get in and if this place is still around by then, I look forward to people being mad about it

a neat cape posted:Hes gonna retire top 5 in every important passing statistic. He's going to get in and if this place is still around by then, I look forward to people being mad about it I agree with this. At some point, individual statistics matter, even without a Super Bowl ring. Dan Fouts is an example of putting up superb numbers over a career and being inducted to the HoF without a single championship.

wins and awards are a matter of specific circumstances, but there's no denying how insanely consistent Rivers was pretty much every single season of his career.

Quiet Feet posted:Rivers belongs in the Vinny Testaverde Hall of "Hey (I Remember that Guy Wasn't he Good?)!" Rivers had a way better career than Testaverde. I think Rivers should be at least in the discussion and has a good chance of getting in just because of the way the NFL hall of fame works. So on a year with a worse set of guys he can be one of the five who has to get in. But on baseball rules he wouldn't make it.

When Rivers wins the superbowl over Tom Brady this year you all will be I knew he was good. (spoiler, he is not good)

Romo probably isn't either. I'm not saying he wasn't a talented guy or what have you but his career does not warrant HoF induction, no.

Romo might get in for his broadcast career in 30 years

BlindSite posted:Didn't Kurt Warner get in last year? Kurt Warner won one and played in three SBs(probably would have won two without Patriots cheating), was a league and SB MVP of a record setting offense, and was pretty much best in NFL from 99-01. Guys who were at the absolute top of their position for a shorter period of time are more qualified than guys who were good over a long period. That's how I look at it.

Rivers overtook Hall of Famer Dan Marino in career passing yards in tonight's game. Dan Marino, inducted at Canton in 2005 without ever having won a Super Bowl. Philip Rivers knocking on the door to the HOF.
