Doesn't matter. The HOF should be for players who dominated at their position throughout their career, and Wilfork dominated his entire career despite being double teamed throughout it.

What was Barry Sanders " standout SB play?"!

You are telling me something I agree with.

You claimed they needed a " standout SB play that would be played forever."

VW is worthy but I put him on the same level as AV and Rodney.

I think all 3 are worthy but Wilfork is easily the most worthy to me.

Happy for Adam, the man deserves this honor and glad the NFL politics game didn't get in the way here....

I'm saying voters get caught up in splash plays

So does Wilfork deserve to be in over Vinatieri or not?

Who had the kicker being more worthy than the coach on their scorecard?

This is all part of the anti-Pats movement on the HOF.

It's also a pretty good way to take a jab at Bill and Bob who didn't get in.

He’s not going into the HOF as a Colt or Patriot, that’s the baseball HOF that a player goes in representing a team.

Absolutely. So does Rodney Harrison.

I remember sitting in the north endzone in the snow bowl and he kicked the tying FG in the south endzone, we lost sight of the ball and knew it was good by the fans reaction in the South endzone.

They don't display a uniform or helmet for them?

He must have applied as a Colt and that's why they didn't black ball him like they did Bill and Robert.

No, just the bust.

I couldn't tell you much about any HOF.

A true legend
His game under the snow at Foxboro against Raiders was simply phenomenal

Very well deserved Adam
For me always a Patriot

Betterthanmost · Feb 8, 2026

I find it jarring that he played more years for the Colts than the Pats.
Congrats to him for a great career
