We’ve all heard the expression “Hall of Very Good” tossed around when discussing NFL players who had exceptional careers but for one reason or another, fall just short of the illustrious Pro Football Hall of Fame. Whether they couldn’t win the Big Game or their career was cut short due to injury, there are a plethora of exceptional players who will never have the honor of a bust in Canton. However, there has never been an official fraternity designed to recognize their accomplishments - until now.

Over the next month or so, I will be posting a series of 12 polls. Each poll will represent a different position group. Each poll will have a pool of preselected players for you to vote on whether or not their career accomplishments justify being enshrined in the inaugural class of the Hall of Very Good. The criteria you use to vote is entirely your own, just keep in mind that this is the Hall of Very Good, not the Hall of Fame, so the standards are a little lower. I won’t have a predetermined number of players elected, rather a minimum percentage of “yes” votes for a player to qualify.

Also, feel free to use this thread to plead a case for or against any nominees, or just generally discuss their careers. There should be some fun discourse around players who are maybe forgotten in history. Also, if there are players who you feel were snubbed from the list of nominees, feel free to let me know, I plan on continuing this series annually and will look into including them in future iterations.

Without further ago, here are the 25 quarterbacks nominated for the inaugural class of the Hall of Very Good. I’ve included a quick overview of their careers, but encourage everyone to dive deeper if they feel so inclined.

The next post will be the Running Back nominees and will likely be posted on Monday or Tuesday.
