Weird, I can think of a few games just this year where he did that.
What games do you think he has truly dominated his opponent this year? - And were those teams decent?

The thing being, most of the players who have been part of the Patriot dynasty are not yet eligible for the HOF. Just wait another 15 years.ESPN - '90s Bills will outnumber champion Pats in Canton - AFC East
Interesting look at this but as we all know in here its a team game with no one as a really special standout on this team other than Brady - Tom may be the only player of a 3x champion team to get to Canton while Buffalo may send multiple players on a team that was beaten in the SB 4X in a row
It is what it is

Seymour played in 14 games this year with only 34 tackles and 18 assists - Not exactly impressive numbers when you average it out to just 2.5 tackles and 1.2 assists
You are a diehard homer and its the only reason you think he will make the HOF - unless he becomes suddenly good again, face the facts
Seymour has been an above average but nothing spectacular defensive lineman for the past 4 years and has been injured 2 or more games each year since 2004
Do you have any idea how the Pats' 3-4 works? defensive linemen in this scheme will never put up numbers comparable to 4-3 defensive linemen. If you think that you can judge Seymour solely on tackles, then it's no surprise that you have no idea what you're talking about.
btw, he also dominated the Rams game and came up big in the second Jets game.
When he once again dominates a few games against a GOOD team then you can spew out more details - The Rams,Jets and Broncos all suck
He did nothing when we needed him to against the Steelers,Colts,Chargers and Dolphins who all are teams who made the playoffs
Just stop with all these excuses you are spewing - The truth is you have to finally submit to the facts that Seymour will likely never be the same he once was and will probably be let to go elsewhere in the offseason
Face it,He is no longer a huge threat to coaches of teams planning against the 3-4 of the Patriots and the next time you see Richard he probably will be wearing a uniform of another team.
The Rams were playing very well when we played them, and, without Seymour's performance, chances are that the Pats would have lost the game. He also played very well in the Steelers and Chargers games (I got belligerently drunk and angry during the Colts game, so I can't really speak to how well he played in that one). If you're looking for reasons why the Pats lost the games that they lost, Seymour isn't it.
How do you know that he isn't a major threat that gets gameplanned around? As I recall, teams went pretty far out of their way not to run at Seymour this year- he had a huge role in the Pats getting teams into a lot of third-and-longs.
As for your certainty that Seymour will be cut this season, care to place some kind of a friendly wager on that? Because I'm pretty certain that he won't be- Belichick, unlike you, understands that Seymour-caliber players don't grow on teams, and that he's the kind of guy whose presence makes an entire defense significantly better. Even with his salary, I doubt that Seymour's going anywhere.
I'll take the rings...
Law was better than any of them (except Brady), jerk or not.
