Note that of the top group, those with 2 or more titles, the only QBs who are not in the HOF, and who are eligible are Kemp, Thompson, Plunkett, and Dunn. Dunn was way early on, more of a Wing T QB, or HB.
Brady and BR are obviously not yet eligible.
Do Kemp, Thompson, Plunkett and done deserve HOF consideration?

Didn't bother looking up Thompson, but I was initially favorable to Kemp- until I looked up his stats- in a word they suck. Ditto Plunkett. They both threw more ints than TDs, and Kemp's career qb rating is in the Anderson zone- 57. If either of these clowns make it, Bernie Kosar deserves in, as his stats are better than either.

Absolutely not. Kemp was known for being a QB because he was a politician, but he wasn't anything but mediocre.
QB's get way too much recognition and attention in these matters. When guys like Randy Gradishar still aren't in the Hall there is no room for any of these guys IMO.

Plunkett will never get in because the writers hold his bad first years against him. he's the only QB to win multiple SBs and not be in the hall of fame.

Do you think they named the "WildDawg" offense after "WildDawg" Wilson? He essentially was one of those Wing T QBs which is what Cribbs and Ronnie Brown et all essentially are playing when they line up in the "WildDawg".
Cribbs may have looked good running the Providence Steam Roller, fair to say?
It looks like they may in fact named a team after Wilson:

In that same light, do you think they named the "Sack" after Norb Sacksteder?:
