Given the circumstances, that's got to be the dumbest play call in NFL history. I seriously wouldn't blame the Seahawks if Bevell (or maybe even Carroll) lost their job over that, that's how bad it was. Nobody's going to fired over it but it was a horrible, horrible call. Great game but ... Disappo...

I should also note that that play call will also overshadow Belichick almost as inexplicably letting 40+ seconds run off the clock and not using a timeout.

First off, Matt, my deepest sympathies. If it was the Steelers in the same situation, I'd still be too busy breaking stuff to post just yet. I agree that the ending will unfortunately overshadow what was a great game overall but, given the mind boggling stupidity on display by Carroll and Bevell, I ...

Congratulations to all the members of the Class of 2015! Tingelhoff, in particular, had to endure a hellish wait just to make it in; this nomination came 12 years after his regular period of eligibility expired, making it a total of 32 years that he was shut out. Somebody so well-qualified obviousl...

Assuming Pace goes in next year, Faneca's closest competition in 2017 looks to be Mawae, who's deserving, but not necessarily more so than Faneca. Steve Hutchinson becomes eligible in ...

Shows how dominant Watt was that Justin Houston, who finished with 22 sacks and would've been an easy choice in some years, didn't get a single vote.

I think Dungy (and Favre) bump Warner to 2017 unless coaches are switched to the contributor category. The other first-time notables for next year are Alan Faneca (will get in, but will wait a few years) and Darren Sharper (no chance unless he's acquitted on all the charges against him). I like Holt...

Beat me to it. He also says Pace and Warner both made the final 10.

So Harrison, Dungy, Pace and Warner were 4 of the 5 to make it from 15 to 10

I would assume Greene was the fifth, but I haven't seen confirmation.
