New York Giants:  Eli Manning

Debates are going to rage about this one. At least until Eli Manning is able to change the script a little bit. As things stand many nitpicking experts would say he’s not quite Hall of Fame material. He’s had too much of a roller coaster career. Not enough Pro Bowls to signify consistent excellence and two Super Bowl championships can’t quite compensate for the dead spots in his career at present. That could change if he strings a couple more good years together.

The truth is Manning is a two-time Super Bowl MVP. Something very few men in history can boast. He’s the only one ever to beat Tom Brady in the big game, and did it twice. He’s responsible for the greatest upset maybe in sports history and is the all-time passing leader in New York Giants history. He’s done infinitely more than Dan Fouts ever did and he’s in Canton. So it is difficult find justification for keeping Eli out.
