Giants Social Media Reacts to Eli Manning Hall of Fame Snub

In this story:
Former New York Giants quarterback Eli Manning is not apart of the 2024 Hall of Fame class and Giants fans are not pleased with the decision.
The announcement was made Thursday night at the NFL Honors ceremony. When Manning's name was not announced as part of the four-member class, stunned fans took to social media to express their displeasure.
Shame on the writers. Each and every single one of them should be ashamed for not voting in Eli Manning

It's bad enough that Manning didn't make it in as a first-year eligible, but it was also later revealed that he didn't even make the cut to the final seven, which, had he done so, would have made him an automatic finalist next year.
Whoever votes on this garbage should be forced to return a kickoff with no pads on Sunday. Eli Manning IS a Hall of Famer. Absolutely ridiculous that he has to wait another year.

Still, there is hope for the franchise's passing records holder, as some think he'll eventually get in.
Eli Manning probably didn’t deserve induction on the first ballot. But he’s going to get it anyway, so why wait?

Spare me the stats. It’s the Pro Football Hall of Fame. One cannot tell the story of Pro Football without Eli Manning.#NFL #HallOfFame
That doesn't mean, though, that there isn't some confusion as to why Manning's credentials weren't good enough, such as his two Super Bowl wins and statistical accolades.
imagine a qb who has 2 super bowl wins, 2 super bowl mvps, is 11th all time in passing yards and passing tds and yet hes not a 1st ballot hall of famer. eli manning remains the most underrated and misrepresented player of all time

Manning not only has more Super Bowl wins and MVPs than the entire 2025 Hall of Fame class...
The 4 players that made the 2025 HOF:

Eli Manning: 2 championships & 2 MVP’s
A joke.

Teams that have the same amount of Super Bowl wins
18…
Manning is also a huge part of NFL history, as he led the Giants on two memorable Super Bowl runs.
Eli Manning , 2X Super Bowl MVP leading 2 legendary GW drives beating the greatest QB/Coach of all time, getting snubbed is absurd. May not have HOF stats one of the greatest playoff QBs of all time should get you in alone. NFL is a joke. Eli is a HOFer in my league #Eli

However, not everyone thought Manning deserved to be in this year's class given some of his other career stats.
Eli Manning never was a first or second-team All-Pro selection. He never received a single MVP vote& he made the Pro Bowl in four of 16 years. Eli Manning NEVER had a passer rating of 94 or better in his entire career.His career YPA is just 7.0.he had a career record of 117-117.

The snub of Manning's HOF candidacy marks another letdown for Giatns fans this season following a franchise worse 3-14 record.
Eli manning snubbed it is officially the worst season is giants history
— Jacob shake (@NYGdumpsterfire) February 7, 2025
And if you think it can't get any worse, well, it could if what this fan predicted happens.
Eli Manning getting snubbed all but solidifies that the Eagles are winning the Super Bowl. Perhaps the darkest hour for Giants fans.
