No, but he’s definitely getting in.

I don’t think he is but then again there are QB’s in the hall that I don’t think should be in there. But will he get in, I would say yes.

Yes. He was a better playoff performer than his brother.

Nope, the hall of fame should be reserved for the truly great, if one has to pause and think for even a second the answer should be no. Like Peyton Manning, yes, no one would hesitate, Eli "uh well he..." No

Watched him his entire career as a Giants Fan.

Eli Manning was an average QB over his career -- maybe even one that under-performed. But he could be streaky-spectacular for short stretches.

The Case

On the basis of Eli's leadership and two unlikely epic accomplishments, he's absolutely earned a HoF membership.

Eli Manning took two different 9-7 Giants teams and engineered are not one but TWO Super Bowl runs.

His Giants scored both SB victories over the dynasty-bound New England Patriots -- including the one over that un-defeated juggernaut.

2007: Eli-led G-Men rolled over Favre's Packers in near-Zero degree weather, then took out Romo's best Cowboys teams IN Big D. (BOTH WINS ON THE ROAD)

2011: Manning completely picked apart Aaron Rodgers 15-1 Pack, demolishing them IN Green Bay -- then scored on and beat one of the best NFC defenses in the last 30 years: The SF 49's (ALSO BOTH WINS ON THE ROAD).

Both runs defied reason. Statistically, the Giants had no better than just above average teams during both runs. Team peaked, but gotta credit the QB, Eli Manning.

Easy, 100% he will get in. May not deserve to get in though.
