"Hog" Hannah is my favorite Pats player of all time and the man put it on the line week-in and week-out. There's a reason he's in the HoF. He, back then, was the epitome of what the Pats are today. Plain and simple.

John Hannah is in The Pro Football Hall of Fame.He is no worse than the Second Greatest Patriot of All Time.Sports Illustrated called Him The Best Offensive Lineman EVER.

Eason doesn't have to apologize to anyone, because until Tom Brady's heroics in 2001-2002, Tony Eason's impressive 3 game win streak in the 1986 playoffs were the best playoff performances by a Pats quarterback in the club's 40 year history from 1961-2001. He got thrown around like a rag doll in SB v. Bears, but so would have 90% of the others NFL QB's at the time.

i have to admit that i was and i am a fan of both John Hannah (Hall Of Famer) and Tony Eason (two amazing seasons, talented, and after Brady and Bledsoe the best qb we ever had; i put Grogan at 4th place)

i will not complain Eason performance on Super Bowl XX (too tough and too strong CHI)

If Kraft had owned the Patriots in the 70s, we'd be talking about our possible 6th Super Bowl victory right now.

The last contstructive thing Matt Millen has ever done wasa to bop Pat Sullivan of the head with his helmet, after the playoff loss tot he Pats.
