    I'm one of the bigger Pats fans out there and I love that Kraft and Hoodie got left off the first ballot induction 100%

    I don't agree that owners are HOF eligible. The HOF should be kept to the talent on the field. Players and coaches, yes. What exactly does an owner do to make them stand out? I know they are a "contributor" but it seems ridiculous to me. Also, if a player has to retire and be out of the game for 5 years, why not everyone else?

    Bob Kraft got lucky that a 7th round draft dart turned into the best QB ever to take the field

    @perkdog, I rarely even watch the game anymore since all the various cable channels have made it not worth paying for. As to the halftime show, I used to watch 40 years ago but now it’s only a peak, like looking at the car accident on the freeway.

    To Robert Kraft, if Modell can’t get in Kraft probably can’t.

    Well, it’s a little over 4 days till the Super Bowl, is everyone ready to watch Bad Bunny?? 😂😂😂

    I find it hilarious that so many people are up in arms about this, literally the only people who should be complaining are the ones stupid enough to pay 7+ K for tickets to the game, and even those people should be smart enough to use the halftime to go eat, use the bathroom or do anything else but watch the halftime show.

    I can't say I've ever watched a half time show, regardless of the venue since I always enjoy the break to go get more beer, food, socialize or whatever else I can do to not watch a halftime show

    I don’t know why you keep thinking that SOS and SOR tell you anything about how good a team they are when the Bama is so bad and why isn’t Notre Dame getting in. Illinois was amazing with poor win over Washington. Your SEC bias is showing Q-F-S-L-dog.

    I've got about as much chance of watching Bad Bunny as I do becoming a Dallas Cowboys fan.

    You know you’re gonna take a peak, no shame in admitting as much. As for watching, I wouldn’t expect that.

    I'll enjoy the game, but not watch the halftime show because I've got anything better to do. 😆

    I remember I drove 2 hours to my buddies house, at 28-3 I almost said "I'm going home"

    The best comeback in Super Bowl. History and it's not even remotely debatable , 🙂

    This was us right after the game grabbing swag at Dicks!!

    Given the "stage" whereupon that happened it has to rank as one of the epic failures by a team and one of the greatest comebacks in NFL history.

    My favorite all-time playoff comeback has to be the game with the Houston Oilers and the Buffalo Bills, mainly because of how it unfolded and how I watched it.........................I was in the house watching and when it got out of control, and like everyone else I knew the Bills had lost, I got dressed and went out into the driveway to split some wood. I could see the TV so I cracked a window, turned up the volume so I could hear and started to split. Gradually my attention drew to the window and I soon found myself with the axe in the block and I was leaning to hear and see. When it got to 35-31 I went inside and watched!!!

    What a game, what a finish.

    35-3 1993 I think, I Remember watching that.

    The fact that Buffalo rallied back to win that game and continued winning to punch their ticket to the Super Bowl.with all that momentum only to lose just solidifies that franchise to be the biggest choke artists ever

    4 in a row and they can't win 1 game, losers is the only definition I can come up with.

    The defining moment from those 4 losses for me: can’t remember what year it was, but at the start of the Super Bowl Thurman Thomas couldn’t find his helmet!!

    Stafford gets the MVP and is coming back next season

    yup, I remember that too. I think it was the first one against the Giants. I still think they were the better team that season. Kelly had the "K-Gun" firing on all cylinders. they were fun to watch.

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

  • craig44craig44 Posts: 12,666 ✭✭✭✭✭

    very close MVP vote. I think Stafford was a worthy winner. hard to overcome 46 passing touchdowns.

    hopefully Drake will have many more MVP worthy seasons ahead!

    George Brett, Roger Clemens and Tommy Brady.

    The owners are irrelevant? Go tell that to the fans who have never had a Super Bowl team, or the teams which are bad or just also rans season after season. Owners make the executive personnel decisions and raise the cash needed to acquire and hold the key players. Ineffective owners usually don’t provide the opportunities for the players and coaches to succeed.

    Yes they should be irrelevant as far as the HOF is concerned.

    That's my opinion take it or leave it

    True for the Packers at least.
