IMO you can't look at QB the same way, as it's so much more of a valuable position. I'd fully expect more QB's in the HOF than left guards or strong safeties.

Rivers was never All Pro but he played QB at a very high level for a long time. 8X pro bowl selection as a QB has to count for something.

Personally I'd vote him in.
