I didn't think Warner's defense, running game and pass protection were being argued for Hall Of Fame candidacy in this thread. http://www.therushforum.com/html/emoticons/confused13.gif

If you dont understand how those things feed into a QBs production and induction into the HOF then... the debate has to more or less end there.

 

Lets talk turkey, heres the list:

 

 

George Blanda (Also PK) 1949-1958, 1960-1975

Terry Bradshaw 1970-1983

Len Dawson 1957-1975

John Elway 1983-1998

Dan Fouts 1973-1987

Otto Graham 1946-1955

Bob Griese 1967-1980

Bobby Layne 1948-1962

Johnny Unitas 1956-1973

Steve Young 1985-1999

Joe Montana 1979-1994

Joe Namath 1965-1977

Roger Staubach 1969-1979

Warren Moon 1984-2000

Bart Starr 1956-1971

Fran Tarkenton 1961-1978

Y.A. Tittle 1948-1964

Norm Van Brocklin 1949-1960

Bob Waterfield 1945-1952

Troy Aikman 1989-2000

Dan Marino 1983-1999

Jim Kelly 1986-1996

Sonny Jurgensen 1957-1974

 

 

Does Warner belong in this group or not. I think he does.

good post.

I would put him above Warren moon and Steve Young. I think it's questionable that they are in more than Warner.

Warner could defenitely have some off days. But when he was on, which he often was, he could 'hit a bird in the eye flyin'.

A crack shot at hitting the crossing routes Warner was defenitely one of the most accurate passers to play the game.

I think the tough years add to his legend.

I think he more than made up for them in the fruitful years.

 

Kurt Warner is a Hall of Famer.

First NFL game I saw had Kurt starring for the Rams on his way to (his first) the Super Bowl, seeing the game from high in the end zone nosebleeds, it was cool seeing the routes and Kurt picking apart the Panther defense. Thanks Kurt!

 

Yes, Hall of Famer
