Around the NFL: NFL Offseason

Sorry no Eli for the HOF until Jacoby is in. Oh that’s right Peter King will continue to make sure Joe doesn’t get in but will make sure Eli is in on the first ballot.

First I remember JJ and yes I think he should be in but I admit I don't know why you thing Peter King is holding it up?

Peter King has said that Jacoby doesn’t deserve to be in because he gave up a couple sacks to a coked up LT in the 86 NFC Championship. He also kept Art Monk out of the Hall for years because “he was a possession receiver on a running team and didn’t have a signature play in any of the Super Bowls he was in”. Basically he’s a Giants homer who hates the Skins and was a vocal opponent of the name and uses his influence in the reporting world against the Redskins.

I guess I missed that , I never heard him say it but as for being a Giants Homer I have to disagree with you . He voted not to induct Harry Carson in and for that reason alone he needs a body guard in the NY area.

2 SB wins against golden boy Brady will get him in. Plus the Manning name helps too. I think he's all but certain to get in even though I think a strong case against him can certainly be made. Like a .500 overall regular season record, but whatever. It's just how this works.

But that's the thing, no one cares or remembers the regular season. There are so many professional athletes that play great in the regular season and choke when it's on the line. Heck it happened last night with Paul George (know it's NBA). Anyway, there are few qbs who could have done what Eli did: beating the greatest team in NFL history and the greatest qb in NFL history not once but twice in the Super Bowl.

No one gives a crap about his regular season record man. Do you think anyone remembers the 2007 Giants with 6 losses in the regular season? Of course not. Everyone knows what they are remembered for.

Case closed. He's in.

Yeah I said he's in. But any case against him will include his .500 record and go from there. Not that it will matter though.

His regular season record could have been better, and he did throw a lot of picks but his overall body of work warrants entrance. He was never given enough recognition for durability and arm strength. He never played scared and played to win. It worked with 2 rings.

Former Washington Football Team running back Derrius Guice had four misdemeanor charges, including three counts of assault and battery, against him dropped Wednesday morning after a settlement was reached with his ex-girlfriend.

Probably the last time I hear or think of this guy again.

Take away the 2 rings though and he's very likely not in. His regular season stats were good to pretty good over a long period of time. He was never considered to be elite. Can't take away the rings though obviously, the postseason will punch his HOF ticket.

He should have the defensive line up there during his speech as they are the reason the Giants won those two games.

Big part yes, as I said no one does it by themselves .You must remember it just wasn't those two games ,it was the run up to and including those games .

I'm pretty sure that 2nd picture is the only time in his career (life?) I saw him smile. I've no doubt he's a good guy and all, but he always looked a miserable b"£%h
