Sure-enough Ken, and then Phillip, will end up getting in if only due to it being a bigger, and bigger, Hall anymore.
Just the same, if you can only pick ONE to get into Canton, who would it be?
Can Rivers score some 'points' with this recent comeback-at-44 if it's a success?
Ken Anderson, Phillip Rivers - if you can only pick ONE of them?

Anderson ... who at least won a conference championship. Rivers should have appeared in more of them with the talent SD had.
Even his last playoff game should have been a win for Indy. Both were very good throwers but the Chargers didnt chase a great team in their division, while the Bengals did with Pitts.

Re: Ken Anderson, Phillip Rivers - if you can only pick ONE of them?
I would say Anderson.
In particular the Chargers in 2006 were probably more talented than any team Anderson had (though the one cornerback fumbling the ball isn’t on Rivers).
The question I have now about Rivers and the Hall of Fame is did he just take himself out of contention for a four more years than he could’ve been?
Obviously different rules and league, but if that’s the case then this could be the NFL’s equivalent of Dave Stieb coming out of retirement to have one last hurrah in 1998 and in effect take himself out of baseball Hall of Fame contention until 2004; 13 or 14 years after his last season of rather prime form.
