I agree, nice to see him finally score a TD...

 

[Wordsmyth]

Awww yeahhhh!

Not clicking CNN....wonder if they mentioned his second personal foul/unpsortsmanlike 15 yarder of the season...

Dear leader says it’s fake news!

Slater for HoF. Best ST player I've ever seen. Incredible teammate. Archetypical Patriot. And even better off the field! My favorite player.

Note that when Slater does interviews with his glasses on he looks like a spreadsheet kinda guy who does salary cap pages. No?
I'm so glad that this guy is getting the recognition he has earned, year after year.
I remember folks here every training camp projecting him cut, although that did diminish the last few seasons.

Is he the best ST player of all time? He’s had the best ST career I’ve ever seen.

Do returners and kickers count in this conversation?
If yes Adam wins. If no then its Slater.

Been saying this forever. Definitely need more to get aboard. He's been the best, top 3 at his position almost his entire career.

Once Brady, Bill retires HOF becomes huge in keeping the legacy alive through the decades.

At this point he's certainly right up there with the best of them. He's def surpassed Izzo and possibly Mosi as far as best Pats ST'er of all time but without researching it I'm not sure I'd put him past Steve Tasker.

Wasn’t that because he ran out of bounds on coverage and was prevented from returning to field of play immediately? So, a bad call?

If it's CNN reporting, we may have to verify this through a credible news source.

Unfortunately all the others are less credible. Some may even dispute that Slater scored. Let’s wait for the usual idiots, er commentators, to weigh in...
