Part 5/7:
Tucker did not shy away from addressing the contentious discussions regarding the Hall of Fame selections. He expressed particular thoughts about Eli Manning, noting that while Manning is a Hall of Famer, he does not belong in the first-ballot conversation. His argument was predicated on the fact that Manning never consistently ranked among the top quarterbacks in the league, despite his notable Super Bowl performances.
He continued by questioning how the Hall of Fame selectors might handle the recognition and categorization of first-ballot inductees, suggesting that a more pronounced distinction would be beneficial to honor those exceptional players adequately.
