I'm a Giants fan. Will alway love Eli for those 2 SB dubs (pause) Was there for all the "you can't spell ELITE without E-L-I." But in no way, shape, or form does he belong in the HOF lol. Eli or Stafford were never considered top 5 QBs in the NFL in any year of their NFL careers. The shyt is a joke.
If youre an NBA player with a 10 year career of largely good/great play or an NFL QB (Eli's career basically ended after the 2016-2017 playoffs an was a cadaver just like Ben for almost 3 calendar years), you're a lock unfortunately. Meanwhile the MLB has the opposite problem where certified MONSTERS at the plate/mound need a Top Security Clearance and 12 All Star appearances to even be considered by the elitist "Baseball Writers of America" fat fuccs.
If Saquon or (more importantly) Derrick Henry retire today they dont sniff the hall. Not a huge Shady fan but he aint in, AD aint in, Corey Dillon aint in, Curtis Martin, etc etc
