My .02 is that if you purely look at regular season stats then you can maybe make Warner/Davis like case for Luck to be in the HOF. But he doesn't have the playoff success that Warner and Davis did which is probably what got them into the HOF. So IMO Luck's a no for the HOF.

I think so, too. Luck's career was somewhat similar to that of l Bert Jones, l as both of them were extremely talented players whose careers were curtailed by injuries.

In fact, l Bill Belichick, l was once asked if their was one quarterback other than Tom Brady in the history of the NFL whom he would choose to lead his team, it would have been none other than Bert Jones.




If Bill Belichick Could Choose Any Quarterback to Lead His Team, He’d Pick Bert Jones

There is no universe where Andrew Luck should be seriously considered for the HoF.

Now, Captain Andrew Luck's Twitter feed, on the other hand, is definitely an all-timer.

No to the hall of fame. Not from a lack of effort, no AFC titles, No Super Bowl. I loved watching him play, he gave everything. Put him on a team with Polian, Dungy and Mudd he plays 15 years.

Numbers dont lie, he was very good, but the length of a career is lacking
I don't think this is accurate in Andrew's case....he stayed in the game and his kidney injury never required surgery.

He missed the final seven games that year due to the kidney injury
