I know that HOF selecting in the NFL is way more subjective than MLB, but I have to believe that the NFL HOF selection committee at least looks at the record books. All I am saying that people suggesting that a Drew Bledsoe inclusion into the HOF is laughable are wrong. Take it any way you wish. 224199[/snapback] I agree. Also, I can't find Boomer Esiason's name on there anywhere..... Apparently a comparison can only take place if you cherry pick stats Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Typical TBD Guy Posted January 31, 2005 Share Posted January 31, 2005 From the NFL records and history fact book (NFL.com) ....... All I am saying is that people suggesting that a Drew Bledsoe inclusion into the HOF is laughable are wrong. Take it any way you wish. 224199[/snapback] You're right. Drew in the HOF isn't laughable. His early career success may be good enough to get him in, but don't forget that there are also plenty of sure-fire HOF'ers (including QB HOF'ers) who will be ahead of him by the time Drew becomes eligible. His declining career since the late 90's have really hurt his chances. All HOF QB's declined at some point in their careers, but not nearly as bad and for as long as Drew. All in all, Drew's career record in big games, games vs. winning opponents, and road games are so damning that he will need a lot of help to make the final HOF cut.

Free took a lot of shots when he first started in the NBA, but I'm not putting him in the HOF either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
