Super Bowl Ring OR Hall of Fame

Would you as an NFL player rather:

1) Be a part of a Super Bowl winning team.

or

2) Have a Hall of Fame type career.



There seems to be such an emphasis on how much the NFL is such a TEAM oriented game, but at the same time some NFL players with HOF careers get blasted by the media because of lack of championships.

So, which one is it? What is more important to you?

It might have made a slight difference if the poll were Super Bowl MVP or HOF.

WOnder how Larry Brown, Desmond Howard, Deion Branch, Santonio Holmes, Doug Williams, and Mark Rypien think?

That's a good way to put it. Every year you have 50+ Super Bowl rings issued and 4 to 7 HoF rings issued.

winning the Super Bowl gets you in the Hall a hell of a lot easier.

Some of you would rather be a third stringer on a Super Bowl team with a ring than in an Elite club of the greatest of all time... mind boggling.
I'd want to be the first third stringer in the Hall.

Reach for the stars, man.

But I think that maybe the people that chose the SB might be better people than us selfish HOFers. Or not smart enough to see the long-term benefits of the HOF career vs. one-time glory that they may not even have played a big part in. One of the two. But they're probably nicer people.
There's no HOF in TEAM.

There's no H. There's an A. No Ls. No Os or Fs, nor Fs again. There is an A, an M and an E.

So no HOF in TEAM, but 3/4 of TEAM is in HALL OF FAME, which seems like too many guys, really.

Come to think of it, there's not much SUPER BOWL in TEAM either.

If I was a 1st stringer I think I'd rather have the Super Bowl win. Being part of that would be awesome.

If it was between say, a SB win as a 3rd stringer or a HOF career, I'd go with the HOF.

This,

I've always hated the "Dan Marino sucks cause he never won the Super Bowl" arguement. Like I've hated the "Jim Kelly is a better QB than Marino because of the rings" or any QB because of the rings, arguements.

It is a team game, the best player at any position could win nothing if the team doesn't win. I hate team accolades contributing to individual awards. It should be nothing but a separator from similar stats, not the first gauge in measuring success.

Case in point, Brady won more SBs (not lately) but if you think Brady is a better QB than Payton, you're a slave to peter king and/or espn. If you think elway or Kelly were better QBs than Marino, your and idiot.

If you watched Jim Kelly play and thought he was a better QB than Marino Aikman or Elway then I don't care to hear your football takes.

Brady was and is better than Payed-a-Ton because in big games he was clutch. When his team needed pts to win he drove his team down the field and got them.

Payed-a-ton not only lost big games but many were lost because of him and his poor play.

Kelly and Manning are more similar than you'd like to think...

Respectfully disagree. I've seen both play, Kelly was more product of offense in a run oriented era, manning is an OC on the field. If manning had Thurman Thomas and that O omg with the bills D, he would have been crowned god.

It's a team game. Should have more weight in deciding greatness than just stats or rings.
