It's easy, and only takes a few moments.I'm not familiar enough with a lot of the Pat players career stats and what it takes at each position to get in to say who has a shot at getting in, but I just wanted to say playing on championship teams does count for a lot.
Troy Aikmen, Terry Bradshaw, a lot of the Steelers from the 70's teams, would not have gotten in without the team accomplishments. So maybe some of the borderline Pats players will get the same kind of consideration when they become eligible.

I'm not saying he's a first ballot HOFer but if u factor all the postseason big plays, being a key member of 5 Super Bowl Teams (so far), only player with 4 straight interceptions for TDs, key member of only 16-0 team, key member of only 2 teams to win 20 straight games, and the whole coming back from the stroke in the same season (u know that will be a contributing factor the Hall loves stories like that) but that's only if they win another Super Bowl.
For an example Charles Haley ( I know he's not in yet but he will probably get in) the only reason he's even considered is because he was a contributing member of 5 Super Bowl teams.
Belichick may not be a first time ballot HOFer like most people here think.
If you have voters with the frame of mind like Spector and all the haters who say spygate played a large role in those SB wins (which we all know is BS)then there could be delays.
Still he will get in, but as a first time ballot remains to be seen.
