Donovan McNabb - Hall of Famer?

    Comparing McNabb to Jim Kelly does not make McNabb's HOF case stronger.

    The eyeball test!

    Not for nothing, but Kelly missed most of one Super Bowl and shit the bed in at least two others. So, his bad SB performances make him better than McNabb, who only shit the bed once?

    Their playoff records are almost identical - 9-8 for Kelly, 9-7 for McNabb. You can't really argue that Kelly was better in the postseason than McNabb was, either.

    No, it's not. The reasoning is that McNabb was a mostly good, rarely great player. The argument that if Kelly is in then he should be in is laughable.

    Is four greater than one?

    Four losses, one of which was historically lopsided.

    Four consecutive appearances, which has never been done before or since.

    So, to answer my earlier question, Kelly gets extra credit because he choked more?

    Is Karl Malone a better basketball player than Charles Barkley? After all, Malone went to 0-3 in NBA Finals when Barkley only went 0-1.

    Hall of Fame threads are awesome.

    In 2007, to commemorate the team's 75th season, Eagles fans voted McNabb the greatest QB in franchise history.
    I think his career honors stop there.

    Everyone sucks. Tear the place down.

    Nah. Just McNabb in this case.

    I don't know why you're so bitter. You got Alfred Morris out of the deal!
