Well, good thing you’re not a HOF voter!

Also, to be fair, the actual HOF voters - who admittedly know much more than I do - apparently agree with you. So there’s that . . .

I think he'll get in - I think this is just a reflection that a lot of voters don't see him as a first ballot hall of fame player.

He might, but I think if he does it will be a longer wait than people think. Even with the 5 year delay, people still get wrapped up in recency bias. The hallmark of a HOF QB is that they were considered one of the best QBs in the league when they played. Eli was never that, not even close.
