Hey Tyler, great takes as usual. Although popular theory is that Eli will make HOF eventually I’m not convinced. Remember this is a personal honor and the fact that he happened to be in a team that won 2 SBs doesn’t sway me unless he dominated those games. He didn’t. In SB XLII Justin Tuck should have been MVP. If we really
must induct another Manning/NFL Kennedy let’s honor the Patriarch, Archie, whose tremendous ability was still obvious despite being sentenced to the horrific Saints franchise. Hell, Eli gamed the system to pick his own team and was never even 1st or 2nd team All Pro in 16 years. In that time 798 votes were cast and he didn’t get a single vote . That includes 64 from the very same NY writers who advocated his ridiculous try at being a first ballot HOF inductee. Let’s have some integrity

Yea, I don’t see why Eli would be FIRST BALLOT … eventually the Voters may feel for him, but that needs to be kicked down the Road, no question.
