Whoa boy, I'm with a lot of you guys. The bar seems kinda low to get into the ROH in Arizona. The standard is low anyway. This is something that should be reserved for someone who played most of their career with the team, and was an outstanding player on and off the field.
Based on the numbers alone, Palmer probably deserves the honor if Warner does. They put up eerily similar numbers with the Cardinals, and Palmer won more often.
Y GS W- L-T CMP ATT PCT YDS TD INT LG YPG RATING SK 4QC GWD
Warner 5 57 27-30-0 1371 2105 65.1 15843 100 59 79 259.7 91.9 107 5 6
Palmer 5 60 38-21-1 1373 2197 62.5 16782 105 57 91 279.7 91.1 137 9 15
However, if you factor in playoff performance, then it's no contest. Warner blows Palmers doors off. Not only because of the Super Bowl, but statistically too.

Still, only 5 seasons, of which only 2 were good, and that's good enough to get into the ROH? AND to have the number retired? I'm definitely against that move. The Vikings haven't even retired Randy Moss' #84 yet lol. I would even hesitate putting Warner in there. Maybe if he won the Super Bowl. But that's my opinion of all these honors lol. They all seem too easy, including the Hall of Fame. Based on the low standards, in 100 years all these honors will be meaningless because you're going to have a lot of players in and with retired jersey's. The league will be using triple digit jersey numbers soon.
Didn't you see the promo by the Bears for the 100 year anniversary? They are adding a 1 in front of all their numbers. It was a funny video even though it was all a joke. What I don't understand is the Bears are ALL in on the 100 year anniversary yet the Cardinals have been around for the same time just garnering NO respect for the 100 year anniversary.
Wait a minute I just went to the Wikipedia site and it says the Chicago Bears were founded September 17, 1920 so that is only 98 going on 99 years. Established September 17, 1920; 98 years ago[1]
The Cardinals were Established 1898; 121 years ago
