My NFL season ended a month ago :-( and a friend of mine missed out on making the Hall of Fame last night as well :-( and I think Patriots by 14 too :-(

Think I'll just watch it on record tomorrow. Pitchers and catchers report for spring training in 10 days :) :) :)

PS, your pal that missed out, is it one chance and out or can they be re nominated.

Hard lines for your friend.

Maybe he will get in next year?

I was predicting Pats by 14 with Goff unable to move the ball so not far out. The average fan will sit there and think a 13-3 final must have been a terrible game but that was real football. Defenses on top, no silly penalties, well officiated and the better team won. I dislike the Patriots with a passion but even I have to respect what they have achieved.

It's former Bucs safety John Lynch. Players can stay on the ballot for 10 seasons from what I remember and they have to be pretty near unanimous choices by the 30+ writers on the panel. He did not make the final 10 this year having been inside that line a couple of previous times. I don't honestly think he deserves it and have written that at times but head can over-rule the heart at times. At least John does not take it personally when I have had to write that in the past.

After a long day yesterday I haven't seen the game yet, read a few comments on the BBC site which are saying the most boring Super Bowl ever. But I am sat here thinking that the Pats defence stopped a free flowing offence that scored an average of 30 points per game over the course of a season to just 3 points. Don't get me wrong the Rams defence that conceded just 13 points, on most other days you would expect your offence to deliver. The Rams QB has said the same. What I did find odd, was in a game dominated by defence, the MVP was won by and offensive player Edelman. Was he really that good.
That's aside, get in there Pats and Brady the GOAT. 💍💍💍💍💍💍

His receptions were the difference. Time after time he found space and time to make clutch plays that allowed the Pats to inch up field. It allowed the Pats to convert 2nd and 3rd downs which the Rams just couldn’t do.

Good to see a non-QB MVP!
