Cam Newton, Eli Manning Or Big Ben Roethlisberger: Who’s A First-Ballot Hall Of Famer?

Reese, Kmac, Pam and Alex discuss the significance of the 2026 NFL Hall of Fame Weekend and debate the Hall of Fame cases for three accomplished quarterbacks: Ben Roethlisberger, Cam Newton and Eli Manning.

With Cam Newton becoming eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame next year, the question is whether his career deserves first-ballot recognition. The conversation also looks at Eli Manning, a two-time Super Bowl champion and two-time Super Bowl MVP and Ben Roethlisberger, who led the Pittsburgh Steelers to two Super Bowl victories. Are Newton, Manning and Roethlisberger all Hall of Famers? And if so, which, if any, deserve to be first-ballot selections?
