Do you think that Julian Edelman qualifies for the NFL Hall of Fame?
Yeah
Nope. It's the HOF not the Playoff HOF
Yeah I mean he is one of many people who literally carried Brady like a mama rocking her baby
He’s a hall of fame post season player.
He should, but people like statpadders
I was in my dorm room in ATL looking out at the falcons stadium with all the bros screaming “PARADE TOMORROW NO CLASS” at halftime. When Edelman made that catch, the silence was the one screaming. Plus, in that Rams Super Bowl EVERYONE knew Edelman was their only game plan and they still couldn’t stop him. Hats off to an amazing career!
Well said. Sorry for your Super Bowl loss as a Falcons fan, must still hurt 😔
The concept of buying the dip is all about buying digital assets when their prices are down and selling off when the price rises just has the current market is down. Holding is profitable, although trading is far more profitable. I was to grasp the knowledge of trading crypto assets early enough, but i was still limited due to my lack of technical understanding of how to analyse the digital market , all that changed when i encountered Daniel Wright services. , although i have been into numerous services but Daniel Wright stands out with experience and expertise playing in his favour . I must confess it wasn't an easy task to learning the routes on trading but with the assistance of Daniel it was more easier to understand , Here are his details on Tel- gram ( @Danielwrightfx..

That's a good point you make at the end! He really was the game plan in that last SB, yet he made them look like a college defense with the manner he carved them up.
That catch he made against the Falcons in the super bowl had everyone in Georgia on suicide watch.

Not a Pats fan but Edelman was such a great clutch player when it really mattered. It was great watching him play except for when he/they were playing my team! Haha
Incredible career and the heart of a lion.

Edelman belongs in the Patriots team Hall of Fame but not the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

In general I think that slot receivers are not valued much compared to the high flyers outside the hash marks. Moving the chains and winning games is not valued as much as making a big play that makes the highlight reel.
I mean the greatest coach of all time said this “By any measure of what constitutes an elite NFL career - wins, championships, production - Julian has it all" . That says it all.

He basically single handedly broke a superbowl open, he made an incredible top 5 all time catch in another super bowl. Great blocker great post season one of the best 3rd down receivers ever. Returned balls threw balls ran balls caught balls blocked he did everything.
played some defense too in this first few years
Regardless if they put him in the HOF or not, his career is more memorable than that of many players in the HOF. Julian should be proud of what he’s accomplished
If they are in the HOF, we probably don't remember because it's been so long ago.

@@raymorris8447 he just said a hall of famer, he didn’t say hall of fame receiver. And I agree with your idea but I think he does too. Obviously Edelman shouldn’t be in the HOF, but he should be proud of himself because he has made a name for himself that even some hof players haven’t (not necessarily hof receivers just some hof players in general)
What he and brady had was so simple but so unstoppable, five yards left or five yards right it was that simple but no one could copy it or stop it dude was money
Julian kept the drives alive and chains moving. He went across the middle without fear. He was incredible at getting open. Overall, He did his specific assignments as well as anyone.

Ya know, I wasn't too high on this subject coming in. I'm kinda like, can't we let him enjoy retirement and sing his praises for a bit before picking his career apart? But the guys found a good balance here. They managed to celebrate his career and discuss whether he belongs in the hall of fame without tearing him down. Big kudos for that.
People will say he is not a Hall Of Famer but people will never forget his post seasons with the Patriots 💯
Hall of Fame carrier; a true warrior. The best all around player that is or ever will be......Thanks for all the great moments in Football Julian... These moments in play are the reasons we hang pictures of great performers in the "Hall of Fame". You Julian Edelman are the reasons we have such a place like this in Canton, Ohio......Thank you, Thank you, Thank you...
He was an absolute monster when it mattered (in the playoffs)
You can’t get in off that alone. I’m a Patriots fan and he’s a Patriots HOFer but not an NFL HOFer. He’s in the hall of very good as Skip would say. That being said I wish people would celebrate his career for a few days before they have this debate.

@@jordanonline7923 Edelman has never been a pro bowler. Never been 1st or 2nd all team. Not happening.

Miami fan here. Total respect for Edleman and his attitude. Exactly how I approach my life/work.
he’s a playoff legend and had a good career in new england. i’m a patriot fan and would love to see him in the HOF because he is probably one of the best playoff receivers of all time.
Easily
Agreed
They made ring of honors for this. Dont split the stats to put people in.
he was never a transcendent player lol, the HOF is for players that were transcendent. Edelman is a good receiver but not a transcendent receiver. This is the same reason that Eli manning doesn't belong in the HOF either.
@@ryancampbell484 i agree he was good but he's not a transcendent if he gets in HOF ,to me Andre Johnson should get it & sterling sharpe .
The fact sterling sharpe and Hines ward aren’t in the hall of fame is just criminal
Hines ward definitely 🤙🏾👍🏾
Tory Holt got better numbers than both of them. He aint even in
Sterling Sharpe 0 rings .....
Hines Ward however all round quality
@@philthornton1382 we dont count wr rings. Only QBs
@@philthornton1382 Sterling Sharpe was the closest receiver to Jerry Rice. Gale Sayers was in the league for 7 years and put up HOF numbers with no rings. Same thing Sterling Sharpe did put up HOF numbers in 7 years. They both retired early cause of injuries but Sharpes was a career ending injury
If Sterling Sharp is not in the HOF...there is NO way Julian can be there.
I don't understand why people treat it like an either-or though. It's not like only 1 WR from the last 20 years can make it in! Everyone says Eli Manning is a Hall of Famer bc two clutch playoff runs & then holds every other position to a different standard. If every QB we consider "great" gets in, there shouldn't be different expectations for other positions.
Reggie Wayne Ocho Cinco Hines Ward
@@shaynagubert4156 Agree
Eli Manning is also 8th all times in yards and a QB contributes far more to winning than a slot receiver does. So you can take clutch into account there.
Are you serious? Blame Edelman for Sterling's career demise?
Jules is one of the most dominant players I have ever watched. His impact on the patriots offense was immense as he was Brady’s go-to guy every game, especially when gronk was injured. He played special teams, defense (slot corner a couple times)!and was great in the run game as well. I can’t remember a time he was taken out of a game because he was so great at creating space in short routes.
He also used PED's like a BEAST.
@@laitisvi1750 you seem pretty hung up on him using PED as if he stole your momma's secret stash lol.
Here's a quote from a USA Today article... "Since 2001, NFL players have been suspended for performance-enhancing drugs and related substances at least 258 times, including at least 82 times in the past five years, according to a newly published database compiled by USA TODAY Sports. The violations have affected every team in the league and every position on the field, including players who have been named to the Pro Bowl and even long snappers, quarterbacks and at least one placekicker."
If you're going to hate on someone, at least pick something a little more meaningful.

Patriot fans will always remember him. Most Hall of Famers get forgotten anyways unless your a legend.
Don't disrespect the Hall Of Fame just because an average player didn't make it in.
My initial thought was heck no, but the more I think about it he’s literally one of the only guys I can think of who never drops the football and his contributions to those super bowl teams are priceless. I dunno man...all I know is whenever I watched the pats and they threw to Edelman it was automatic almost 100% of the time.
Exactly. Always caught the throws down the middle of the field in double coverage, ran unbelievable routes.
he dropped 1 big one. other than that, yes
Never drops the football
Leads the league in drops 5 times
@@StFigarlandGarling Edelman, lead league in drops?
@@StFigarlandGarling I never saw it
The hall of fame should not be just about the numbers but also about the overall impact to the game. If for an entire decade, a player has caused the league defenses to game plan (most often unsuccessfully) around this player and has pushed the league to start valuing the slot receiver position, then Edelman should get in if you add his overall impact to his post season numbers.
Wes Welker did that before Edelman
All I’m waiting for is the insight about the beef with Shannon and KD tmmr with undisputed and its gonna be fire 🔥
No way they beefing?
@Ade ToVAR 🤣🤣🤣
@Ade ToVAR 😂😂
Can we appreciate this man's career when it mattered and a catch needed to happen and everyone in the stadium knew where the ball was going this man delivered time after time
CLUTCH
I Think he should eventually get into the HoF purely because of his grit and ability to do what others won’t do, and step up to any task you ask him. For him being a wr they should really consider how hard he played compared to other receivers
I now he doesn’t have that many signatures catches compared to some other players, but his longevity and willingness to do whatever necessary, if it’s blocking, playing db, throwing the ball, not many receivers would dare put their body in situations half as dangerous as Edelman
There’s hardly ever been anyone in NFL history been as clutch as Edelman in big games. Regardless of whether he deserves to be in HOF.
Michael Irving, Jerry Rice, Jason Witton, Antonio Brown, Julio Jones....I could go on and on....
It's hard to get into the Hall of Fame without any pro bowl selections
Doesn’t matter cause NFL still going put him in the hof they love us patriots
@C De No. Never top receiver, no pro bowls + suspended for PED use.
Just no.
Thats it.
@C De the hall of fame ain't there to sell tickets and promote lol. They kinda have a strong base already. Pick the qualified people.
That’s a fan vote tho who cares
@@laitisvi1750 excalty like y’all on his nuts some much y’all can’t even see he was a okay receiver played great in the playoffs that’s it never took over a game never had a season where he was top 5 never even came close to a pro bowl WR were does he rank with WR of his Era 🤔🤔🤔 like 28th cmon stop it enjoy his career but leave HOF outta of it
I can see a display about Edelmen during the Super Bowl in the Hall, but I can't see an actual entry to the Hall itself
They do have plaques for individual achievements like game plans and I'd be happy to see a little audio-visual display of Julian's catch in a room with other great catches. There are plenty. Why not do it? We have the technology now to watch individual plays submitted as all time great plays. Others that come to mind (SBs): Manningham, Tyree, Kearse, Fitzgerald, Holmes, Swann
He won’t get in... but the fact you can have this debate based off his postseason success says something. Special player

He needs to get in line to be even considered. Andre Johnson, Chad 85, Hines Ward is very under appreciated (look at his numbers and accomplishments) and Torry Holt. Also, the man on this panel's older brother.
Edelman and Amendola are the probably the most disarmingly talented receivers for their size that I have ever watched. I honestly think Julian's career would have lasted another 2-3 years had he not been tasked with punt and kickoff returns. Great player; not a Hall of Famer, in my opinion.
There's this other disarmingly talented small receiver by the name of Wes Welker.....

He's legendary
Forgot all this Edelman talk, I’m waiting for Shannon to talk about KD tomorrow 🤣
It's so tough because the Patriots spent 20 years creating an offense that was specifically designed to create issues for other teams to plan against. Edelman was a pro-bowl "level" talent on his team. But, aside from Brady, the Patriots had so few pro-bowlers on offense.
A great player is one who plays at the absolute top when it's needed. Edelman didn't need 2,000 yards in the regular season because there were 12 different players every year catching TD passes from Brady and they would still have 13+ wins almost every season.
I hate that Edelman is going to be judged against regular season production when he did everything he was asked to, and he has far greater stats and achievements than many people in the HoF. The man GOT. SH*T. DONE. And that's more than even people like Drew Brees and Peyton Manning can say when they look at the rings on their fingers.
Great post, the Patriot hate is real though.

I really enjoyed this segment. When they’re not irrationally biased and arguing they seem very logical and still entertaining
I'm biased as a Pats fan so naturally I say yes that man did so much for our organization, so do with that what you will. In any case I miss JE11 what a warrior he was
THe man played QB , Defence , WR , Special Teams , he blocked, returned punts.. he did it all. One of my favorite players. Sadly he will never sniff the HoF
That is the problem with the H of F, they celebrate a position and forget about legendary FB players. JE is an all around amazing FB player. He dd not catch 40 yard bombs but they don't win games. The 5 to 15 yard catches do. Creates time of possession, opens up the wide receivers and the run game by making them back off line of scrimmage just a bit. He belongs in the H of Fame. Julian Edelman position" Football Player".
@@markpoidvin5382 That's not true at all, Edelman doesn't have HOF stats. He hasn't made a pro bowl. He's average.
@@gxdzfxrst2940
That is my point. He is not considered top in league in any one thing, that is pro bowl, criteria, but he is a good runner, returner, blocker, slot receiver ( a very underrated position). And the famous play " the catch: is the most average looking 10 times every Sunday TD pass and catch you will find. It was before my time and when I saw it finally I was stunned. Ni idea why it is special in any way. " The Catch" is more like what Edelman did in Super Bowl 50, that is one for the ages. Probably the best catch I have ever seen, and by far the most clutch. Football is like anything else, some players get all the attention when they are not that good.
@@markpoidvin5382 Julian Edelman's catch wasn't anything special though. Your average college receiver makes a better catch each game.
Yes I do believe he qualifies his Super Bowl performances were legendary on a side note I believe Troy Brown should get some consideration too he was the most versatile Patriot I've ever seen he set the stage for Wes Walker and Edelman and Amendola
Pats hall of fame...not nfl HoF. Take away brady you have a 5 or 6 year career. To many ahead of him that deserve it
@@kyos8462 take away Brady? Talk about rewriting history, just take Joe away from Jerry or Troy away from Michael Irving while you're at it. I think you can make a cogent argument that Julian's total body of work is not sufficient without getting into taking away a QB whom he was intuitively matched. Why try to destroy what makes team sports special? It's about the team effect, the being on the same page effect that makes guys reach greatness.
Troy Brown may be the most underrated player of value in NFL history. He was Mr. Everything and a very steady influence in the locker room to boot. That walk off catch against Miami, wow ...

His heart was bigger than his body. What a player
How many times have you seen Edelman catches on TH-cam comparing to HOF players? Many times more because his were way more important. His catches will be remembered forever. He was the best when during the important battles. Many players earn their stats during a backayrd games.
All the Edelman stats are also a testament to Tom Brady's ability
I don’t ever disagree with Skip, but this time I am. Julian is a hall of famer. Hands down.
One of the best big game receivers ever
Dont care what they say about Edelman,as a patriot fan you always knew that he will make those clutch plays,with season on the line.
Never seen a guy shrug off more hits like they were nothing. Wow Julian is the man.
its crazy you're saying he needs pro bowls to get into the hall of fame..super bowl mvp sounds a lot better..championships sound a lot better..being a hard worker and a winner sounds better!!! you can have your hall of fame, i bet julian is happy with what he did!!!!
Edelman may not light up the stats but he is clutch when it counts.
Edelman was on a winning team that's why his numbers aren't like these other high profile receivers. Most of those guys teams don't make the playoffs, they have garbage time stats. Edelman's stats mattered at the most important moments
He caught open passes, and that's about it.
I watched this guy every week he is a hall of famer!
12k all purpose yards, 43 tds. The thing is, he wasn’t ever just a wide receiver. He was also a special teams guy and he was pretty good at that too. Considering the injuries and he retired at 34 he still had a lot to offer the league, a 7th round draft pick that played qb in college. There was no other more dangerous dual threat wide receiver in the post season. I’m not saying he’s in the hall of fame, I’m saying there are strong cases to consider him.
Man I don't know. Nobody other than Jerry has done what he's done in the playoffs. His situation is extremely unique.
If he's in then so is Eric Moulds. Laverneous Coles. A guy named Hines Ward?? Come on.
So 3x champion , super bowl MVP and all the amazing catches he had for Brady ( specially the falcon super bowl game that catch was legendary) and all catches and touchdown that he has made in the nfl and super bowl he deserve a spot in the hall of fame I’m not saying he is first ballot but he deserve to be in the hall of fame
No he doesnt.
That’s nowhere near enough lmao, executives during the Patriots era get rings too you know? Horry was a 7 time champion and hit game winners, that don’t make him a ball of famer 😂
No he doesn't he's not good enough. Neither does eli or rivers
Edelman had an important career with lots of all time plays. He's definitely a HOF candidate as his story is belongs in the hall
Edelman is a multiple time champion, made ridiculous catches - and throws - was a key target in a dynasty and a Super Bowl MVP.
He absolutely should make it in. Not first ballot, but somewhere down the line, yes.
Well put
Skips credibility when it comes to HOF talk was shot when he contradicted himself by saying on one side of his mouth "If I have to think about it,you're not in" but on the other side TO didn't belong
Havent seen the video but if edelman deserves to be in the hall of fame than sterling sharpe should too real talk💯
If Edelman should be in the hof then the floodgates should open
I was thinking that same thought
Edelman was the artful dodger, so unrecoverable when it mattered.
This is a dumb argument Julian is easily a HOF not only was a receiver he did everything, blocker, punt returner, qb, ect. And still have decent numbers especially in the postseason
JE11 is MR Clutch. That stat about his 3rd down catches for 1st dowms says all. When the game is on the line, you could count on him to be big. I think he deserves to be in the Hall.
Greatest playoff receiver to ever live and by far the most clutch receiver in playoff history
Never in a day would I argue Julian is a better wideout then the modern receivers Shannon listed. HOWEVER, all of those wideouts Shannon missed don't even have one ring, Jules has 3, and was a big part in each of those wins. If you just looked at regular season stats then yes, he would never sniff the HoF, HOWEVER X2 you can't disregard him as being the best WR in the post season this era. Name a better wideout with better numbers n more rings? Idk it's a hard debate I get that but my side is (biased I will admit lol) is he deserves to be in the HoF, the only other constant receiver Brady had was Gronk (when he wasn't injured, which was a TON during the post season) so I think that goes to show something.
Um Holt and Ward have rings and Ward was a superbowl mvp thank you very much
@@ziegfeld4131 2v3 and I'd argue Ward isn't in the gen I'm talking about? can you read?
Everyone wants every player to be in the Hall. Just when they retire it’s always “He should be in the Hall of Fame” No he does not belong in the Hall. Deion was right they letting just anyone get in.
Everyone can't be a Hall of Famer but to get the praise Randy Moss got at Tom Brady's Patriots Hall of Fame Ceremony is priceless.
The play vs Seattle was incredible. Got nearly killed and just kept going forward
If Hines Ward ( 1,000 Rec 85TDs 4x-All Pro) and isn't in, NO WAY Edelman goes in
And 2 Super Bowl
Very true
It's a shame he's not in already
You cannot tell the story of the New England Patriots without Julian Edelman. The problem with the Hall is its pretty much a fantasy football award. Regular season statistics should not be the dominant criteria to get in. Wes Welker had a much more prolific receiving career than Edelman but in critical moments when the game is on the line Welker came up small. Edelman may not have the numbers but when it comes to critical moments 10 times out of 10 I take him over Welker any game. Edelman is one of the great clutch players that I have ever seen in the biggest games. He delivered whenever his number was called. The criteria should be opened up because the slot receiver in many ways is the 2nd most important position and few played bigger than Edelman
You can’t tell the Story of the Philadelphia Eagles without Nick Foles. You can’t tell the story of the Baltimore Ravens without Joe Flacco. Just because a player is a team legend doesn’t make them a hall of fame. And both of those players were also super bowl mvps.
@@ErikCB912 Here is the thing about Foles and Flacco. They were flash in the pan players that had individual great runs their respective Super Bowl runs but that was it for them. What I saw Edelman do to the Ravens and Legion of Boom in 2014, Falcons in 2017, Kansas City Chiefs and Rams in 2018. Especially the Rams. That was the most dominant performance any receiver ever had in any game period. That was the only game I saw a player that was truly uncoverable start to finish. Edelman had multiple runs which is why he is a multi time Champion. Its not so much just you cant tell the story of the Patriots without him. He was a major contributor to that culture that allowed them to have so many chances to win the Super Bowl. The 3 they won they absolutely do not win without him.
@@bryanmahoney3434 To be honest I see your point but one of the players from the defense should have won MVP they held that team to 3 points but if Edelman gets in solely off of playoffs then Moss and Megatron should not be in at all. To also be honest you can take Edelman out of that superbowl against the Rams and they still win because the defense allowed 3 points to that loaded offense
@@bryanmahoney3434 and actually Flacco had other good playoff performances but he didn't win and winning is a team accomplishment so that's why we shouldn't just give it to Edelman
The guy made big catches in big games time and time again.
That is worth something if you ask me.
I know Shannon was thinking If my brother not in the hall of fame he definitely shouldn’t be in”
I think he absolutely should be a hall of famer. The guy is a winner. Accumulation of stats and awards are for guys who dont win. I would take Edelman over a whole lot of "greats" currently in the hall of fame.
I won’t be mad if he doesn’t get in. Not everyone gets in.
u sound mad hating.... dont discriminate cause he ain't black. dude has a case to be in. don't be upset
@@THINKTVTIME oh yeah I’m the Patriots fan that’s hating on Edelman. Why does everything have to be racial?
Only dumbos make everything about race.
@@LASAGNA_LARRY everyone always does which is why its gotta be addressed. everytime.
@@THINKTVTIME take a seat cuz
Hines Ward is 4x Pro Bowler, has 2 SB rings, a SB MVP, and broke the record for single season receptions and STILL isn't in. Edelman has no chance whatsoever.
Also one of the dirteist players to ever play which is prob what is holding him up
If a 3x SuperBowl Champion can't get in then what tf is it really for?!
0 pro bowls enough said
U can make such a good argument for both sides it’s insane
To me he made the best catch I've ever seen!
He definitely deserves to be in the Hall of fame discussion at the least he didn't even play his 1st 4 seasons so you have to start countin after that and then compare that to someone else's 1st 6 seasons or something like that otherwise it's not fair
Edelman Hall of Fame discussions starts:
No.
Well, that settles that.
So move the goalposts up so he can make the kick lmao. Nah he just comes up short.
You start the minute they get in the league. He didn’t start til 4 years in, that all matters.
If he didn't play it was because he wasn't good enough. The pats have always had average WRs (except Moss) and did well with what they had and Julian is no exception. They can have the discussion but he will never be a finalist.
This shouldn’t even be a conversation. Edelman isn’t a HOFer. We should debate Wes Welker before Edelman. But it’s been a quiet sports week so they gotta talk about something.
If Edelman wouldn’t of play with the patriots they don’t win super bowl to me
Agree. They still had other years where Tom did win but his years, he was essential to the wins.
You could flip that, if Edelman wasn’t on the Pats. He probably wouldn’t have won any Super Bowls
and edelman did other things that don't show up on stats for his position.
Like blocking and throwing passes and 1td, kick and punt returns, and playing defense
things that some of the other receivers ahead of him didn't do.
