Eli has stats tho
I will start a race war if Edelman gets in before Hines Ward
if you're comparing him to dudes from 20 years ago, sure. if you're comparing him to his contemporaries he really doesn't.
ben, privs, rodgers, peyton, bardy, brees, ryan, and stafford will all have more yards and touchdowns to eli when all is said and done. which means the only guys of his era that eli will have better stats than are palmer, romo, flacco, dalton, fitzmagic, and alex smith... congrats.
Edelman’s retirement video was the dumbest shit I’ve seen in a long time lol
it makes him statistically the 9th best qb of his era out of 15 potential candidates... there's only been 26 qbs put in the hof over the last 80 years, mean only 4 from this era should get in when in reality it's going to be more like 5 not including eli
yeah and 12 QBs have won multiple SBs, and 10 of them are in the HoF or will be first ballot
eli is getting in bro
you said eli has good stats, i simply explained actual reality. he does not have good stats for his era
Eli will get in, whether anyone likes it or not. Edelman is not HOF material in the slightest.
For the record, Romo has far better stats and was a much better QB than Eli, Eli just played forever.
tbh it's hard to definitively say romo has better stats. when i was looking it up i was surprised to learn that eli had more yards per game than romo did. tony always seemed like he hucking it all over the yard. his td%/int% and such was obviously better tho 'cause eli's was garbage
Romo's yards per game are super diluted by the 29 early games he appeared in but didn't start (and often threw 0 passes)
Romo had 269 yards per start, Eli had 244.
Romo's yards per attempt, per completion, per start, completion%, TD%, INT%, winning% are all significantly better than Eli's.
Which is why Romo is 9th all time in career passer rating (better than Peyton, Rivers, Young, Ryan or Roethlisberger) while Eli is tied for 50th in his career (with Joe Flacco).
You may not like it, but this what a future hall of famer looks like.

using the eli on the beach with that tiny baby bucket would've been the better fit for that post
Still curious how they’re going to handle home field with this.
