Re: Mahomes, going into SBLVIII today, what HOF QBs has he already 'passed'??
He's in the top ten. This was his worst season in the NFL, but he closed it out. He's far surpassed Brady pre-2007, and is going to give a serious challenge to Brady's playoff wins and SB records far earlier than anyone could've imagined. He's obviously had the best start to a career of any QB ever,...

Re: Pro Football Hall of Fame, Class of 2024 talk
Gronk will be 1st ballot, so that's only 3. Gates will certainly not last past the 3rd.

Re: Semi-Pros in the Super Bowl
Surprised it's this many. In football, once you go down to the minors, you usually don't come back. None of these examples seem to be of any recency, though. Do any of these teams even exist anymore?

Re: Steve McMichael: HOF?
I could also see them lowering the quota for senior nominees to 60 or 70 percent over this... but I doubt that helps any more super seniors get nominated to begin with, at least until they force Powell through, that might energize them again.

Re: Modern Candidates HOF Preliminary List
I expect Powell to get another chance, but this could definitely screw things up for seeing any more AFL/AAFC guys ever getting nominated again, at least until they can push Powell through. Parker was nominated in an off year for coach/contributor, so this could have been his best chance...

Re: Steve McMichael: HOF?
Powell getting knocked down this year screws everything up for AFL, AAFC, and super senior guys. They'll probably be more shy about nominating any going forward.

Re: Steve McMichael: HOF?
Jim Benton has been discussed many times here, by myself included. Pretty easy case, but it feels like the HOF regards the judgment of the founding classes as sacred, anyone they passed over was passed for a reason that doesn't require an explanation, and the only instance they're willing to admit t...

Re: How will Belichick's final chapter be written?
This is pretty shocking. Even Kraft seemed to assume he'd get snapped up immediately. It doesn't appear anyone but Atlanta has even interviewed him. Is Dave Canales really that much more in demand?! Come on.

Re: Modern Candidates HOF Preliminary List
Perfect. So duplicate nominations don't contribute to a player's chances, then, are are just returned to sender automatically?
