    Same thing applies to Brees.....winning one superbowl does not automatically annoit you for the HOF......check back in a few years and see where Brees is at
    Well, there is a huge difference in my opinion.

    Whiles Manning spent the last 4 years of his career (up until this year) with a lower Quarterback rating than Mike Vick (someone who has always been criticized for not being a complete Quarterback) a lower Completion % than 90% of the league, and went the 2006 season throwing an Interception in 15/16 games.

    Brees was coming 17 yards shy of the yards record, throwing 30 touchdowns a year, and having monster statistical seasons.

      Yeah that matters. I know when I look at QB's the first thing that matters to me is how much he fumbled the football.

      Not to mention your stat is wrong.....No surprise.

      Warner is 13th all time. Guys ahead of him include HOF'ers(or soon to be): Favre, Moon, Elway, Marino, Fouts.

      Other HOF'ers in and around the top 25 all time in fumbles: Unitas, Dorsett, Franco Harris, Walter Payton, Bradshaw, Tarkinton, Len Dawson.

      The official source for NFL news, video highlights, fantasy football, game-day coverage, schedules, stats, scores and more.


      1. Brett Favre (166), 2. Warren Moon (161), 3. Dave Krieg (153), 4. Kerry Collins (139), 5. John Elway (137),

      Then in the other half he won 2 MVP's, a Super Bowl MVP, Won a super Bowl. Got to two more and is 6th all time in passer rating. Guys have made the HOF with much shorter careers than Warners. Namely a guy like Gale Sayers.

      Excellent. You're argument is based on Warner being hurt for a few seasons, a coach making a bad personnel choice and a made up fumbles stat.

      AWESOME!

        I'm sorry. Actually the stat that I saw was Kurt Warner was #2 all-time in fumbles per touches. Dante Culpepper was #1 I think.

          Brees' body of work is better than Eli's by far. Drew brees is a great regular season QB and finally got it done in the post season. I dont think he even deserved his MVP in the superbowl.If it was possible I thought you should have split that shit four ways and given it to the Giants D-line. I mean if Asante doesnt suck balls that drive then Eli and Peyton could both share game losing picks.

            I can't really think of anybody since the SB era other than Gale Sayers that have made it into the HoF playing as few games as Kurt Warner.

            Super Bowl MVP is an overrated accomplishment. In fact, there are 16 players of the Game every week.

                I'm surprised Warner has enough games played to qualify for Career Fumbles. Maybe that's the reason people look past it. The stat never pops up.

                But in all seriousness you tried to argue me saying Kurt Warner fumbles too much by comparing him with

                3 Running Backs.

                A Quarterback that has won 4 Super Bowls.

                and Johnny Fucking Unitas.

                  Alright?

                  So that means Warner shouldn't get in?

                  LOL at comparing Suber Bowl MVP to a Week 1 player of the week.

                  Bigger LOL at downplaying Warner being the best player in the biggest game of the season.

                    Deon Branch has a Super Bowl MVP.

                    I'm not trying to downplay Warner, and I can see you also seem to have your dick up his ass. All I'm saying is the Super Bowl MVP is a joke accomplishment, and rarely goes to the person who actually deserves it.

                    Mike Jones should have been the SuperBowl MvP.

                      Or that it doesn't matter and no one cares. Who the HELL ever debates GOAT QB's and brings up Unitas'. Favre's, etc penchent for fumbling.

                      Noone gives a shit because the stat doesn't matter when you have a guy winning MVP's, getting to Super Bowls, winning one, and breaking passing records.

                        Point.

                        Your head.

                        Winning the Super Bowl MVP on top of winning NFL MVP, the Super Bowl itself and breaking records over a career is the important thing. Not to mention his stellar playoff record.

                        You're being an idiot and looking ONLY at one stat. Yes, many people have won Suber Bowl MVP's and no one should look at that stat alone but to ignore in context of a players entire resume when evaluating HOF consideration matters.

                        Your simplistic way of thinking is both depressing and astounding.

                        I don't even think he should be a first ballot guy. So STFU.

                          Let's stop talking about Warner. I really don't give a shit because you aren't going to back down on your opinion, and I'm not going to back down on mine.

                          I have no personal vendetta against Warner. He never fucked my team over or anything. He has a nice cinderella story, and I'm proud of him.

                          But in no way shape or form should someone who sits the bench or is injured for almost half of his career should make the Hall of Fame.

                            You're contradicting yourself. You are saying I'm only looking at it one way, and one stat. I'm bringing up THE WHOLE RESUME. And the Resume says Warner didn't attend work for half of his career. While turning the ball over a ridiculous amount of times on the ground.

                            And you are saying it doesn't matter that he fumbles a whole shitload? It doesn't matter that he spent all that time sitting?

                              You're a moron. Mike Jones making a tackle to prevent a tie is more important than Warner going: 24/45 with 414yards(Super Bowl record) 2TD's 0INT and most importantly NO FUMBLES...that I could find.

                                To say I'm wrong about the Warner not playing a lot of games thing is... well I can't think of the word.

                                But you'll see it on the boards all the time, and you'll see it in this thread. You'll also see it in discussion on Television.

                                You'll see someone talking about "is so and so the greatest of all time?" or "is so and so a future hall of famer?"

                                And all the time people say "Yeah, but he has to put up these numbers for another 5-8 years or so..."

                                So what the fuck? Warner didn't put up these numbers for 10-15 years like people want other people to do!?!
