It's a catch 22.
If you are something more than mediocre as a QB, you are nearly a shoe-in to get elected.
John Hadl was a better QB than Joe Namath, but Joe Wiilie is in while Hadl is on the outside looking in.
On the other hand Jon Gruden won a SB with Brad Johnson, and Brian Billick won one with Brad Dilfer, while Andy failed with a hell of a defense with one of the best DCs ever, and Donavan McNabb at QB, who is a damn sight better than either of those scrubs.
Joe Gibbs won with 3 different QBs, none of whom will ever sniff the Hall, and Tom Flores won with Jim Plunkett.
Andy Reid's failure to win has more to do with his inability to manage the game and the clock than who he had at QB.
Had he overcome his own shortcomings, McNabb is likely a HoFer.
