I guess my main opinion is that Eli was mediocre and belongs nowhere near the Hall of Fame.

The 49ers had the best record in the NFL running an innovative offense that a large part of the league and fans fully didn’t understand, thinking it was a gimmick that would fail at any time. Montana finished second with 15 votes, but Anderson got 46, coincidentally running a similar offense.

Throwback time: Phil Simms and Jeff Hostetler were cool. Randall Cunningham is the best player in Tecmo Super Bowl. Yes, better than Bo. Washington sucks. gently caress the Cowboys. The Cardinals also technically existed in the NFC East and are a better offense in Tecmo than Dallas or Washington

Eli isn't better than Aaron Rodgers come on. He was an amazing QB that was way better than his stats and was also one of the better playoff QBs of his era but he wasn't Aaron Rodgers.

Eli's stats shouldn't allow him to sniff the hall of fame but stopping 18-0 deserves him that, a senate seat, hell rename that bread sticks at Olive Garden after him.

Eli being admitted as the Tom Brady slayer is a compelling argument I don't think he's a better QB than Aaron Rodgers, but he has his place simply for owning the pats

Let’s not forget, Eli also stopped Favre in his last game as a Packer, and Rodgers during his 15-1 season. Plus, he pissed off Jerry Jones more than once, such as the 2007 Divisional round, winning the NFC East in the last game of 2011, and winning the first game in JerryWorld and signing the locker room wall.

even if we pretend that Eli was a bad quarterback for 14 seasons, those two superbowl wins put him in unanimous first ballot. it's the Hall of Fame not the Hall of Egghead Approved Analytic Benchmarks

blarzgh posted:I'm not comparing to MVP season 17 years apart The reason that adjusted for era is stupid is the same reason Jalen Hurts is a way better QB than Eli despite having an inaccurate noodle arm. QB stats don't matter because there's no defined concept of an ideal QB. Even if you have a guy that can pass and run with the best of them, is that person even better than someone who specializes in one way? Someone said earlier Troy Aikman threw bullets short yardage, and he's right. He was really good at that particular thing. When he threw medium or deep the ball was a garbage duck. Was it better than Elway? No. Did it win more? Yes. Would other players be better in the situation? Well that only suits the argument that you want to pull for because it never occurred. Now ignoring that, extrapolated magnitude is a statistic fallacy that plagues stats right now. People will research a population of 1000 people, find that 10 suffer from diabetes, someone finds that and says that extrapolated out over 1 million people 1% have diabetes. With adjusted for era the guy is essentially using a weighted formula for statistics that he finds to be more impactful. That's it. https://www.footballperspective.com/adjusting-passer-rating-for-era-part-vi-career-passer-ratings/ This is all of football perspective's takes on it and where you're getting your stats from. He takes these stats: code:
=IF(C2>223,SUM(MEDIAN(0,2.375,(D2/C2-0.3)*5),MEDIAN(0,2.375,[1])/6*100,0) And weighs them differently using league averages per year: quote:Adjusted Completion Percentage Which you cannot do. The formula invents plays out of thin air. They say that because there's more plays that these results will occur which is a statistical fallacy. Stats analyzes a population, it doesn't make assumptions unless there is a significance. Correlation and causation are two completely different ways to analyze stats, not what actually occurs. It's why adjusted for era is such bullshit. It's literally warping numbers without a population. It's not real. It doesn't take into account any outside variables like advancements in nutrition, training, coaching, quality of player, meta of the game, offseason maintenance, in season maintenance, medical, social, personal, or any other reason that a player could or could not play better. It's why you can't swap QBs on teams and expect one to do better. You don't know. You're just assuming.

I found that pro football reference has a hall of fame monitor stat and Troy Aikman is second worst QB in the list. Only Jim Kelly is worse. So, Aikman isn't the worst QB in the hall of fame.
