Has he done enough to get to Canton or is the verdict still out?

171 Career TD's, 26000+ yards passing, 2 NFL MVP's, 1 SB ring and MVP.

1CavHog

I think he needs one more good season to put him over 200 TD's and 30000 career passing yards. I think it will happen though as productive as he is being this year.

 

DiscombobulatoryHOG

Easily.  At his best, Warner is easily one of the 10 best QB's of all time.  The numbers speak for themselves.  HOF

ErieHog

Not even remotely close.

Does anyone expect Brad Johnson to be in the Hall?  His numbers are better, for a career-- with the same number of Super Bowl wins (and many more playoff wins in his career).

If you don't have multiple championships, the starting point for a discussion of Hall candidacy realistically starts at about 38,000 yards 225 TDs.




No cause, ever, in the history of all mankind, has produced more cold-blooded tyrants, more slaughtered innocents, and more orphans than socialism with power. It surpassed, exponentially, all other systems of production in turning out the dead. The bodies are all around us. And here is the problem: No one talks about them. No one honors them. No one does penance for them. No one has committed suicide for having been an apologist for those who did this to them. No one pays for them. No one is hunted down to account for them. It is exactly what Solzhenitsyn foresaw in The Gulag Archipelago: "No, no one would have to answer. No one would be looked into." Until that happens, there is no "after socialism."

Yea, but Brad Johnson was not the best QB EVER for a 2-3 year span.

When KW was doing his thing in StL he was simply amazing before the injuries caught up to him.

Sorry, but No.

Warner's best years were at the top of the league-- but we've seen 3 consecutive MVPs by Favre, back-to-back by Manning,  Brady following up Super Bowl wins with a perfect season and the obliteration of the TD record, etc.     It can easily be contested as the 'Best QB Evar' stretch-- and that's just in the last decade.

Warner is a prime candidate for the Hall of Very Good.

Put in film of the man slinging the ball in his prime and he will be extremely impressive.

I'd put Farve in that good but not great category.  He won on a great team.  Then spent the rest of his career trying to make impossible throws that either got him on Sportscenter or his team beat.

I do believe Favre is overrated-- no argument there. I think he's been given extremely favorable press for so long that his deterioration in performance is being glossed over.

Favre gets extra points over Warner, though, for a few items:  Big NFL Records?  Check.  *Multiple*  conference championships and a superior playoff resume? Check.   NFL Player's Reputation?  Yes, even if attributable to a drug addiction.

He also has: more MVPs, more Super Bowl appearances, a better Super Bowl performance record, etc.

Throw in that he's thrown for nearly 3x the yardage, and there's clear separation between the two-- and if Favre is overrated,  Warner belongs nowhere near Canton.

On a different note, the thing that I *really* think undermines Warner's case is longevity.

If you are in the league 10 years, you have to be phenomenal.  If you are in the league 15 years, you can make it by being a very good QB who is a big winner.   If you are in the league 20 years, you can be a good QB, with a few big wins and some big NFL-record type stats.

Warner's been in the league a decade, but has been a feature player far less than that.  He's played only 2 complete seasons, and only has *3* seasons with 12 or more games played (6 of 10 or more).

That really, really hurts his resume.

I agree.

Warner's case will be built on 3 seasons.


However, he was REALLY good in those 3 seasons.  Warner's career is an interesting story and I think he makes it to the Hall just based on how he got where he is coupled with his overall success at an older age.

The problem being, which 3? 

Right now, his 3 best statistical seasons are 1999, 2001....and 2007.

He's only thrown for 30 TDs or more twice-- another big black mark for a HOF QB with short-term longevity.

He's a far cry from the MVP this year; he's struggling mightily against the likes of the 49ers.

MS_HogFan

What team do you thinks he goes in with?
Rams 14,500 yards 102 TDs 2 MVPs
He will be close to matching those #s with the Cardinals if he plays on more year. He is putting up MVP #s this year.
That is what hurts him in my opinion.
Farve = Packers
Aikman = Cowboys
Montana = 49ers...etc..etc..etc

He threw for over 300 yards and 3 TD and 0 INT last night. Another season of game like that and he's in.

Yeah I don't know what game he was watching to have made that statement. He needs to go read the box score.

29-24 against the worst team in the NFC.    That's everything that needs to be said.

A HOF QB wouldn't need to come back in the 4th quarter against a team that bad.

You are showing how truly ignorant you are with every post. Put down the bottle, its still the afternoon.

So short of rally his team back to win, what he do wrong last night? He pretty much was the reason they won. Their D was the one that allowed them to get behind like that.

Hall of Fame QB's are never suppose to be behind in a game? That's idiotic. HOF QB's, like Warner are the ones that keep their teams from losing those type of games.

Furthermore, Cincinatti and Detroit are worse than San Francisco.

Boom! Outta here.

Ignorant? Jesus-- at least I can read what someone posts, and reply cogently to what was said, rather than what one chose to read into it.

No one said HOF QBs are never down to bad teams; what was said was that trailing a terrible SF team for most of 4 quarters something that was eminently unforgivable, especially considering the number of times he simply missed blown coverages.

  Twice Bolden had free releases against zero coverage,with the safety jumping a run fake.  Both times Warner chucked it to Hightower (once complete, once incomplete).   Once, Fitzgerald blew by man coverage with a double move, with no safety help--- and Warner chucked it short to Urban.

Warner's good;  he's having a good year, in a year where much of the league is down-- but he's not a HOF'er.   His mistakes last night are the kind that the elite don't make.

Yeah he missed a lot last night; 32-42 for 328 yards and 3 TD's.

His passer rating for the SEASON is 106. That's not a good year. That's a great year.

If he can get back to anything close to his old form when he was with the Rams (he looked like that last night) and do that for another year or so then I see no reason why he wouldn't get in. May not have the talent of some of the great quarterbacks but he has a better mind than most when it comes to picking apart a defenses weaknesses. The man can read some coverages

There's a difference between completing a pass, and getting it right.   Tom Brady isn't Tom Brady because he hits 70% of his passes.  He's Tom Brady  because he gets the big play in the key moment.

Put down your Warner fan pipe, and be objective.   Warner's having a good year; he needs another 5 of them to enter into the HOF conversation.

He's not first ballot, but eventually I think he'll make it. MVP caliber season this year.

Middle of the 3rd Quarter here are his numbers today:

27-36 349 yards 1 TD.

It won't take too many games like this to have him keep moving up the all time charts.

Does anyone expect Brad Johnson to be in the Hall?  His numbers are better, for a career-- with the same number of Super Bowl wins (and many more playoff wins in his career).

If you don't have multiple championships, the starting point for a discussion of Hall candidacy realistically starts at about 38,000 yards 225 TDs.

How many MVP's has Brad Johnson won?  How many super bowls has he been to? How many Super Bowl MVp's? 

Kurt Warner is a first ballot hall of famer.

I don't think Warner has the consistency over his career to make the HOF. The story is not all written yet but I don't think he's done enough to this point.

Warner continues to make an effort to *get* to the HOF;  today was a huge step forward, especially if he can win another Super Bowl (putting him indisputably in the Hall), or if he plays another 3 years with some reasonable level of productivity.

If he wins the SB in 2 weeks then yes he is in for sure  He would be the only QB to lead two teams to a SB victory.

If not he is still probally a HOF pick. He is a class act.
If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

Absolutely. Without question. Three Super Bowls. Won the first. Got screwed out of the second. And took a Cardinal team to the championship game (super bowl) for the first time in 61 years.

And Mike Leinert thought he hit a goldmine being drafted by Arizona.

I think he gets much more credit for what he did *in* the Super Bowl, than for getting the Cardinals there.

He's a HOF'er now-- just not likely on the first few ballots (and depending on when he retires, possibly only by the Veteran's Committee).

Stat of the Week

John Elway played in five Super Bowls. Joe Montana played in four. Kurt Warner has played in three -- and has thrown for more yards than both Montana and Elway.
In 12 quarters, Warner has passed for 1,156 yards, the most in Super Bowl history. In 16 quarters, Montana threw for 1,142. In 20 quarters, Elway threw for 1,128.
