Is Kurt Warner a HOFer???

First off I say without a doubt yes. His numbers are outstanding, hes won a SB, 2 time MVP, etc. I keep hearing he has to win another SB, but I tend to disagree. I also just heard that Warner will likely retire after this season. Which is very likely considering his injuries this year, and his advanced age (hes not Favre--but a better QB imo). Thoughts?

My opinion was no until I read this-

Highest completion percentage in a single game (regular season) - 92.3% (24/26) (9/20/09) [33]

Most Yards Passing, Super Bowl (Game) - 414 yards vs. Tennessee Titans (only QB to pass for 400+ yards in the Super Bowl; also owns 2nd and 3rd highest yardage total in Super Bowl with 377 against the Pittsburgh Steelers and 365 against the New England Patriots). [34][35]

Most Yards Passing, Super Bowl (Career) - 1,156 yards.

Most Yards Passing, Playoffs (Single Season) - 1,147 yards (in 2009).

Highest career completion percentage, Playoffs - 66.5%

2nd Highest career passer rating, Playoffs - 104.6 (Bart Starr is first)

Anyone who has followed football for at least 7-10 years should know he is easily a future.

He had like 6 bad/mediocre seasons before resurfacing with the Cards as a starter which is what was sticking out in my mind and how quickly I forgot his playoffs excellence.

Stats don't lie though. even with his bad years, he's still one of the best.

    • You didn’t really address the point, just like you ignored the point about the RBs initially, and saying “they are all lotto picks” is just a really silly reduction because you could say that about literally any player rookie or vet every snap, every game, every year. It is well known that different positions have different hit rates, and I would argue different types of prospects within position groups as well, and that hit rates change the further down in the draft you go. Everybody knows QB is different and that, for example, first round OL have a really high success rate. Using your lotto ticket analogy…again…you are saying a lotto ticket with a 1 in 100 chance of hitting is the exact same thing as a lotto ticket with a 1 in 2 chance of hitting (this is an example, don’t take these odds literally). The point was he is no more of a lotto ticket than the 31yr old receiver coming off a major knee injury, and in my opinion he is better odds with a higher potential “jackpot”. Saying one player is an “lotto ticket” while another isn’t is just not sound logic. You have no idea who will break out, regress, get injured, etc. There are safer bets than others, that’s all. I don’t think Diggs is a safe bet and even if he was, weighing him over all of the Panthers WRs plus 2 1k rushers is just dumb. You can disagree if you want. The list is stupid.
    • Yeah, this is all projections of how it will turn out. Inevitability this list will look ridiculous in a full 2025 sesson hindsight, most likely. Still, I am pretty surprised that so many bristled at being thought of as having very, very lowly ranked WR and TE units. We literally have been for years. All you have to do is just have things stay the same and those are immediately bottom 5 units. It is easy to see why one would be reticent to have lofty expectations in the preseason. Gotta show it first when you are a perennial cellar dweller. That's just life at the bottom.
    • That's my biggest concern with making him the 2C.  You split up the Aho Jarvis bromance that accounted for a lot of points.  If Jarvis excels as a C, it could help the team even more though.
