If the answer is yes, then he doesn't belong in the hall. If the answer is no, then he does.
For Eli, the answer is no. You cannot tell the story of the NFL without him.
The answer for say, Rivers, is yes. You can tell the story of the NFL with out mentioning Rivers.

Eli sucks now, well for a few years. But his 2 wins in the Superbowl are massive. He has stats and longevity also. He is a hof QB. Rivers no, he has never done anything at all.
