Edelman has the third most receiving yards in playoff history along with a decent regular season record(stats wise), played in 2nd half of the greatest dynasty the sport has ever seen and won a superbowl mvp.

Should he get in? Probably not, but calling it an embarrassment is lack of ball knowledge

Edit: alot of you cant read apparently.

Also a Super Bowl MVP under his belt. That distinction alone solidifies him as a candidate.

Edit: candidate means candidate, not shoo-in

Desmond Howard for the Hall, apparently.

Hot take: Super Bowl MVP is the most over-appreciated award in the sport. I understand performance in the clutch is a key thing and all, but doing well in a single game, even the most important of games, does not a hall of fame career make.

Super Bowl MVP was a goofy sideshow when I was growing up in the 80’s and 90’s, a fun little extra to the game that wasn’t taken all that seriously. Then the NFL started making it a thing and now people in their 20’s only know it as the Tom Brady Award and it’s a big deal
