I'd vote him to the Hall of Pretty Good.... maybe even the Hall of Very Good... but no way in God's green Earth should that man actually be considered for the Professional Football Hall of Fame.

And why the hell not? In the last 3 or so years yeah he has been bad but look at the early 2000's he was a fantastic QB never having a decent receiver besides TO, and even TO sucked
He had a few good years, but you'd never put him in that top 2-3 QBs over that time. You can also argue that great QBs make mediocre WRs look better, which McNabb never did.
When you're down late in the game and your QB comes out on the field you think "with Brady/Manning/Favre/Kelly we have a chance", but with the Eagles you were thinking "I hope they can get the ball to Westbrook".
No super bowl wins, one super bowl appearance (a loss), no league MVPs, never led the league in any passing category. Marino never won a Lombardi trophy, but he was one of the best QBs to ever play. You'd never think of McNabb as one of the best QBs during his own time, much less when talking of all-time greats. Plus, every decent Eagles QB turns to crap whenever they go someplace else, and McNabb had one of the worst post-Eagles showings.
He just doesn't "transcend the game" like other hall of fame QBs do.
