He had a good run. Better this way than to try to stay too long.
Apparently will announce Friday.

so? yawn as expected..

He'll be in the HOF.

 

[CATCH17]

I can not believe that guy won 2 Superbowls and is going to be a HOF'r..

Eli/ Coughlin won two more than Romo/Garrett in the same era.

If he goes in HOF it will be a big joke totally lose credibility for HOF

 

[Ranched]

GREAT! Out with the old in with the new. The new decade is starting out great. Now if only Arrogant Rodgers would retire.

Eli/ Coughlin won two more than Romo/Garrett in the same era.

And Garrett won two before Coughlin/Eli's era.

hopefully not first ballot, it will be easier to accept if he has to wait a few times around lol

 

[big dog cowboy]

Please don't let him find his way into the TV booth!!!

not saying I disagree with you but it's just the nature of the position

60000 yards and 2 time super bowl MVP + playing the most valuable position in the sport is going to be viewed by the committee basically the equivalent of like Alan Faneca career accolades in their eyes

 

[Howboutdemcowboys31]

Gonna miss kicking his ***

Terribly overrated player btw

 

[aria]

Well unlike Romo, Eli showed up in big games and he did beat Brady twice. If Plaxico didn’t shoot himself then I wouldn’t doubt if they would have won a third SB. IIRC, they were kicking butt that season until he did that and then everything went downhill.

 

[SlammedZero]

Well, I can say I will miss seeing his dumb Eli faces on the sidelines.

he'll probably end up like Kurt Warner and get in but it'll just take two or three tries (id be fine with that)

I'm not an Eli fan by any stretch (in fact, he has always annoyed me), but it's nonsense to suggest he doesn't have the credentials to be a serious candidate for the HOF. The guy has 2 Super Bowl wins and is 7th all time both in passing yards and in TD's.

his .500 record tons of INTs and not a media darling will hold him back a few ballots..

Uhhh...

Not the same sis.

 

[TheMarathonContinues]

Did what no one on this team could do in the past 20 years. Got not only one ring but two. Never liked him but gonna miss rooting against him though.

 

[Hagman]

So, retire rather than have Jason Garrett as your offensive coordinator. I get that.

I just hope when he makes it, his bust looks like this:
