Could these last two seasons have cost McNair a possible vote into the Hall of Fame some day? Even though his stats were even for the most part of these past two years as the year that he was co-mvp, could his win-loss record for the last two years be a deciding factor on whether he will end up in the Hall some day?
i don't think the last 2 years will have any effect on McNair's trip
I really dont think McNair will be a Hall of Famer. Small market, only 4-5 years of success, and not amazing stats.
he is in elite company though with the whole lots of yards passing / lots of yards running. he's been one of the true warriors of the game and also one of the most likeable
I agree, I don't see him going to Canton (not first ballot anyway), but who knows ....... the people that vote on that sort of thing likely respect McNair to the highest

McNair will go to Canton. Book it!
And yeah, it's because of the respect and the yardage/running combo. They will look at that as a class by itself, and he's fourth on that list. The rest of the bunch is in, and sure they have more, but those stats (you could freeze them now and he'd get it in) and the respect factor will get him in someday.

I think if the team can rebound from the last two seasons and McNair leads us to another Super Bowl his stock will rise significantly. The way things have been recently doesn't help his chances of getting in.
McNair will never be inducted into the Pro Football Hall of Fame. Not unless he goes back to putting up MVP-type number again for the nest few years, anyway...
I think he needs to play in another Super Bowl or get another MVP consideration type year.
No way that McNair is going into the Hall of Fame. His numbers are really not that good, relatively speaking. How many great years has he actually had. Off the top of my head I would say around 3. He has been a good Titan and a fan favorite, but compare him with all the others and he is just not good enough for the hall.

Check out Terry Bradshaw's numbers. A super bowl appearance/win or two will go a long way.
I'm one of the biggest Mac fans on this site, but I don't think he is going to the Hall of Fame. How many H.O.F. qb's have not won NFL Championships?
Off the top of my head I can only think of Jim Kelly.
Hopefully we can pull a New England and win a whole bunch of championships to send Steve out. But after last year, that seems far away indeed.

He needs that ring...
Plain and simple he needs to win it all. Only then would he even get consideration. I don't think he needs mvp type seasons but he needs to remain as a top 10 QB in this league for at least 2 years. That and a super bowl and he could be in. A tall order indeed. It would help to make another pro bowl. Even though he has deserved to go to at least 3 he has only been to one.
Remember the voting for the hall occurs 5 years after retirement so the finer aspects of a career are forgotten. The raw numbers hold more weight and voters will see a QB who is maybe 45th all time in passing yardage and who maybe made just one pro bowl in 13-14 years and that won't do it.

He's got to do a lot more the rest of his career before I even consider him a HOF candidate.
Warren Moon isn't in the HOF and has over 20,000 more receiving yards than McNair.

Really, I never would of thought about that:winker:MadAboutMcNair said:
The only way McNair has a chance to make it is if he plays 2 or 3 more years puts up incredible numbers, wins the Super Bowl, and maybe just maybe then he will have a chance at Canton
McNair's passing and rushing combined with his toughness may get him nominated but unless he doesn't come up with a couple more deep play off runs combined with a minimal Super Bowl appearance, I can't see it this point.
