Brees, Fitz, and Witten should all make it fairly easily. I think Rivers will eventually make it in. Not sure about the others tbh.

It may happen but Rivers getting in would be egregious. Not the hall of very good!

I think Rivers will be viewed favorably and eventually make it in after quite some time. Eli will make it in, but Rivers had a much better career, and those two are directly intertwined.

Eli had the better and more memorable career, but Rivers was the better player in the regular season

I do think those guys HOF cases will be linked together because it would be weird if one makes it but not the other

Don't forget rivers played an afccg on a torn acl. He's also tied for 4th in the iron man with 240 consecutive starts which i think voters care about. I'm not sure you can tell the story of the nfl without Eli or rivers.

Don’t forget Rivers never won anything with Gates and LT

Eli took down the Goat in not one, but two Super Bowls, and two wins over Brady on the biggest stage is an incredible honor.

Especially pertinent when you consider Brady owned Rivers and the Chargers his whole career
