McNabb was a better QB than Aikman. Not sure either were Hall of Famers.

He was never great. He was unremarkably very good for 5 years and average to bad the rest of the time

I think Garcia and Aikman are very comparable actually

I just wish Drunkenmiller would have reached his potential.

Eli has 2 rings and I think the only reason he will even be in the discussion for the Hall is being on the Giants.



Jim Plunkett had two rings and he is not in the HOF.

Ken Stabler, Phil Simms and Archie Manning are not in the HOF.

But there isn't a QB with more than one SB win that isn't in the SB. Aikman has 3 SB wins.

Aikman had an outstanding offensive line (as good as Emmitt was, would he have been just as good anywhere else? Imagine if Barry Sanders played on a team with an offensive like as good as the Cowboys line was during their run).

McNabb had good number, but they not good enough to get him in the HOF without having a SB win.

Comparing QB stats of players from this era to QB stats from players in the 90s is silly. The game has been made far easier for QBs in this era.
