My first thought was 2021 when seeing this thread.

Well, little bro just passed big bro in career sacks today. I say that J.J. has the more impressive career though. Multiple DPOYs and better at the "eye test". His freakishly long arms constantly batting down passes was a thing to watch.

I am a fan of the team but there were Native American groups that complained about the name years ago so this narrative about it only being a recent "woke" thing is false. True. The Washington ownership pretended the name wasn't a problem until all their sponsorships, stadium vendors, etc...

Because they reached the final seven for the Class of 2025, nominees Willie Anderson, Torry Holt, Luke Kuechly and Adam Vinatieri automatically advance to the final 15 for the Class of 2026. ^^^ In the fine print beneath the list of preliminary nominees on the HOF's website. Apparently I missed thi...
