We fundamently disagree & that's fine, but Plunkett wasn't a multiple SB MVP.

Here's the list of guys who've done that.

Eli
Bart Starr
Terry Bradshaw
Joe Montana
Pat Mahomes
Tom Brady

All of these guys are slam dunk HOFers, including Eli. So what is the point of these idiots dragging it out to next yeat's ballot? Are they proving a point?

Sorry this issue has stuck in my craw for a very long time, nothing anyone can say will change my mind on this. I'll have you know it's not an Eli specific thing, it's a problem I have with the process for both Football & Baseball. Shit like guys leaving dudes off their ballots entirely just to be petty, yet players like Harold Baines getting voted in. The HOFs in every sport have been tainted, IMO.
I have seen multiple former players say yes and multiple say no as well. You are making it all come down to the 2 mvp awards. That is your perogative but I believe voters look at the whole career. I do think he will get in. I just didn't think it would be this year. With more QBs eligible next year I would say its around a 40% chance he gets in next year.
