Donovan McNabb believes he's a Hall of Famer

Donovan McNabb has quickly fallen from an upper-tier NFL quarterback to a man without a job discussing his legacy. Yes, it's time to start the McNabb Hall of Fame debate.

First up in the discussion: Donovan McNabb.

"What happens a lot of times is we look at what the list says, so we talk about the five NFC Championship Games, the six Pro Bowls and then we come to the end, 'Well, he never won the big game,' " McNabb told Mark Kriegel of FoxSports.com, via the Philadelphia Daily News. "Well, Peyton never won the big game until he won the Super Bowl. Dan Marino never won the big game. Does that mean his career is a failure? No, not at all."

Kriegel started the discussion by saying there would be "no debate" whether or not McNabb was a Hall of Famer if he had a title. McNabb was asked what makes a Hall of Famer:

"First of all is his numbers. How many times has he led his team to the big game?" McNabb said "The big game still is the NFC Championship Game, the game to lead you there, and most importantly of all, did he make the players around him better? In his time, in his era, was he a top-five, top-10 quarterback in the league?"

The guy most obviously be high.

W.T. Sherman is my favorite General. After all he did order Atlanta to be burned to the ground.

If he ever gets to a Super Bowl as a starting QB & WINS, he will make it.

Not at the moment but I'm sure he's on someone's list if their starter was to go down with an injury

You have to admit, though, that McNabb was very relevant year in and year for like a 6-7 year period.

It's too hard to tell if he is HOF material. I mean, Warren Moon is in the HOF, and he was a reg season stud only.

Your guess is as good as mine.
