Interesting that Bill Belichick did not receive enough votes to make Hall of Fame. 

does the NFL need to change the voting system?

What is your view?  is 6 time Super Bowl winning head coach Belichick a hall of famer?

As much as I don’t like Belicheat, I can’t believe he didn’t make it in as a first ballot HoF coach?!

I was shocked! Shocked! I tell you! I'm not a fan of his or the Patriots, but if Landry was elected first ballot with 2 Super Bowl wins, and Don Shula was elected first ballot with 2 Super Bowl wins, and Chuck Noll was elected first ballot with 4 Super Bowl wins, how in the hell could Belichick not make it on the first ballot with 6 Super Bowl wins?!?!

As much as I disliked Belichick during his time with NE, this is not a good look for the Pro Football HOF.

They must have put a lot of weight on the Spygate and Deflategate scandals.

Anonymous voting, with pansies hiding behind their clear vitriol for the man.  Billy B is the best football coach of all time. Silly he didn’t make it.

He has 8 super bowls. 2 as the DC of Giants. Crazy stuff.

He will make it but tainted by two cheating scandals so this is the way for the NFL/HOF to at least save some argument that those things matter

Two cheating scandals? Are we still calling "deflategate" a scandal? It was ridiculous then and its even more ridiculous now

Even the most ardent Patriot haters will agree this is stupid. 

The pro bowl has already been completely undermined...

All-pro seems to have some integrity left for now.

And now the HOF is somehow political because of scandals?

Is Brady not going to be a first ballot too by this logic?

Pretty dumb. No different than the Oscars it seems.

Wonder if Mikey Mike will be a first ballot

Polian is such a bitter Buffalo bitch. 

Just made the HoF a joke.

Wonder if Deflate Gate has to do with it?! Thought he would be a shoo-in!

Well, I was just identifying the events, but the merits are probably on Tom Brady's cell phone.  Oh . . . um . .  yeah . .  never mind :-)

 

Kidding.  I only meant that two very public cheating events impact the brand so one explanation would be what I described
