One of the most talked about Pro Football Hall of Fame candidates in possibly the history of the NFL is former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning.
The two-time Super Bowl champion built a good career in New York with the Giants and is up for induction into the Hall of Fame this year.
Pro Football Hall of Fame quarterback Warren Moon joined “Up & Adams” on Wednesday to chat about Manning’s candidacy.
“I think if you become a Hall of Famer, you have the ability to be a first-ballot Hall of Famer…He’s a Hall of Famer. There’s no question about it,” Moon said.

Manning spent his entire career with the Giants (2004-2019).
Of course, the two Super Bowl victories over the New England Patriots are going to be springboards for Manning as he hopes to make it to Canton this year.
The four-time Pro-Bowler is in the Giants Ring of Honor after having the best career for a Giants quarterback in the history of the organization.
At the time of his retirement, Manning was top-10 in NFL history in touchdown passes, passing yards, and completions.
Now, the reason why some people are debating whether or not Manning is a first-ballot Hall of Famer or a regular Hall of Famer at all is because has a career .500 record (117-117).
Also, he never made an All-Pro team.
Regardless, it appears as if the positives could outweigh the negatives as Manning is likely on track to having a bust in Canton, Ohio in the very near future.
