If Adam V doesn't get in they should just disregard the HOF

Gimme the Boom of the LOB. Kam Chancellor. He did everything was so dominant and shut every player down on the feild. Pass rush, stuffed the run, shut down RBs TEs and WRs or Duel threat QBs. 0 career TDs aloud and probably the Hardest hitter in NFL history. Absolutely a monster and Legend. #s don't prove how great Kam was.

The Disrespect to Shawn Alexander... One of the greatest RBs of all time when he was in his prime. MVP. Should of been SB champ. More TDs than Barry Sanders an1 shy of Walter Peton or tied w him. Forget. He was sooo good. Plus so great @ Alabama. No fluke. One of the best.

In response to George Vreeland Hill, uh yes it does. Every QB to win multiple Super Bowls is in the Hall of Fame. Plus he led a team that wasn't expected to make the playoffs in 2007 and beat the Pats in their undefeated season. Probably the biggest upset in Super Bowl history. Then he did it again four years later.

Beating Tom Brady twice does not put Eli Manning in the NFL Hall of Fame.
I'm a Giants fan, and Phil Simms was a better QB for the Giants and he won with less offensive talent.
Besides, Manning had too many bad years and few remember or know that during the 2007 season, there was talk that Eli would be cut after the season, but the Giants came on and made the playoffs and went on to win the Super Bowl, which happened to end the New England Patriots undefeated season.
The legend of Eli began, but he is no legend.

Marshawn has done everything needed to make the Hall. He didn't play by NFL rules so he may get the snub.

One "legend" who will never make the HOF as a player is Tony Romo, no matter how much $$$ Jerry contributes to the brand new Manning Wing which will debut August 2025.

The only way Tony will get into the HOF is as a broadcaster and, after last weekend's NFL Wild Card disasterous broadcast, he will be lucky to get into his high school's Broadcast Hall of Fame.

Be nice to see cly Matthew's go into hall as a senior selection and son Clay go in as well. Don't think a father and son went in together ever. They both deserve it

Yall have Darren Sproles listed as not having a ring...That's wrong he got one in 2017-2018 with the Eagles

I see what you're trying to do making it mathematical but that just makes it poop. Adam Vin, Eli M, and T Siz are way too low, come on dude. Plus Weddle played yesterday.

'26 is equally jacked up. Pouncy as #1 above Brees, Fitz, and Witt? C'mon man
