So is he a hall of Fame QB or not

Saw a little of that on FSN.

yes! there are QBs in the hall who have done less...a couple of them are named Dan

Yeah I heard this was speculation on Monday. I'd say yes on the HoF induction.

I think so too, jus tnot sure if he will be a first year of eligibility guy. seems a lot of guys from recent times are going in so you have to wonder if that kind of dilutes the meaning of it.

He may not be a first year inductee but he will become one at some point. Favre will go in before him.

if he ever retires :lol:

True but with the way he got hit in the NFC championship game even with the great OL Min has, I'd be surprised if he wasn't done.

maybe but at the same time minny has a lot of pieces in place for another title run if he does stay, if he retires theyre screwed unless childress can pry mcnabb away from philly.

Favre definitely gets seniority over Warner. Warner shouldn't get it, imo. He did well his first couple seasons, then a couple recently, but he isn't hall of fame worthy.

That seems to be the debate on him, plus he wasnt a full time starter till he was 28. makes ya wonder what would have happened if trent green never got hurt.

Warner worked at a fucking grocery store after college. He didn't even get drafted.

Dont forget his years in arena ball.

it makes for a great story and all but i am up in the air about his HOF credentials. Dont want it to be like you win a super bowl as a QB and are guaranteed a spot in the hall.

Exactly. Trust me, I loved watching him play for the Rams when they won the superbowl, and the couple seasons right in there, but HoF should be reserved for truly amazing QBs.

Also have to add in the years with the giants and even at first with az he was supposed ot keep the spot warm and teach the young up and comming QB's with Eli and Leinart.

I am wondering if leinart stopped partying and thinking hes at usc and gets to work. Hes got an amazing offense to work with, so they could make HIM look good.

He's a definite Hall of Famer, he'll be in and deserves it IMO. Sad to see him go, I like watching the old guys play.

I think he gets the nod. He wasnt a career standout, but did have a successful career and a bowl ring doesnt hurt. Plus he is the kind of story the NFL will want to endorse. Self made guy who worked his way in the hard way. Probably a second round inductee but he's in.

Top 5 in most of the important passing categories, and a true team leader. Yeah, I would say he gets in, as he should.

BTW, the same dude that flattened him also got Favre in the next game.

Dude is first ballot. He's a top notch QB and a standup dude.

If you look at Warner as a person as well as a football player, he belongs there more than anyone. He is a great Humanitarian off the field and true team leader on it. Like I said before, there are men in there who have done less in their lives and on the field. If I had a vote he would be at the top of the list of the class of 2015. But seeing as the world is going to end in 2012 him nor Farve will get in:lol:

Good observation.

ESPN had a sidebar saying that Warner was number 3 NFL all time pass rating...That's a big stat and I had no idea

He's got the numbers for sure.

That is not counting his community work.

Only QB to not be shut out. Now that is a fucking stat.

That list is longer than I realized.

i see a lot of names on that list that are already in the HoF

Well thats it then, he's bona fide!

Taking St. Louis and Arizona to the Superbowl is pretty amazing to me.

HoF?

Hall of fame

women :rolleyes:

There are men talking in here, you gotta go.

:lmao:
