Well, one thing is for certain. They both will be Hall of Famers
If Eli Manning doesn't turn around the current two year rut he is in and retires with only a four year run of high-end QB play (2008-2011, plus the 2007 playoffs) his future as a HOFer is in doubt. From 2004-2007 (until the playoffs started) and 2012-2013, Manning was in the bottom half of NFL starters.
If Manning retired RIGHT NOW, the only QB in Canton with a worse personal resume (taking out team accomplishments) would be Terry Bradshaw and he has FOUR rings. Eli getting in is not a given right now.

LOL. The guy was the MVP of not one, but two Super Bowls, one of only 5 quarterbacks to do so. He has been selected for the Pro Bowl 3 times. And he has already passed for more yards than any other quarterback in Giants' history, including Phil Simms.
All that, by itself, would get him into the Hall, regardless of how his career ends.
