I wouldn't say he is a lock but he will probably get in.

4 Selke trophies 1 Stanley Cup is probably enough to get him in

He's an annual lock for a Selke nomination and a top 30 scorer yearly.

He's the great version of Ryan O'Reilly

Judging by both of their stats last year, Ryan O'Reilly is the great version of Patrice Bergeron

Hes a Quadruple Gold Club

And the best 2 way center in the game

And he has been in the top 3 or 1 in the Selke votes

I'm not doubting his 2-way prowess. The scoring just isn't there for me to say HOF

And ROR had more points and a better PPG on a worse team and only ended up -1. I love O'Reilly's play, but that fact that he's a comparable for Bergeron means the latter isn't HOF

peca has 2 selkes, never sniffed the hof


Bergeron has more points, than those, but no way is he a lock for hof, 50/50

Are you for real ? Go look up Gainey.

The guy he tied for Selke wins


Bergeron 7 years a finalist for the Selke Trophy And he's not a HOF ?

They need LB depth hopefully a surprise cut or two happens that would help them out as well.

How this season plays out will all rely on 3 players:

Most important: McCoy needs to be healthy all 16 games
Second most important: Taylor needs to be consistent (as in good)
Third most important: Watkins needs to be healthy all 16 games

If the defense stays healthy I can see them winning 9-11 games, 9 wins isn't enough and 10 might not be enough either...11 wins gets them in for sure

Bills are giving WR Anquan Boldin a one-year, $2.75 million deal, that includes $1.25 million in incentives, per source.


So could be $4 million...still some cap room left

I have the pats, raiders and steelers as locks


so 3 spots are left (2 wild card)
bills, dolphins, bengals, ravens, broncos, chargers, chiefs, jags, texans, colts and titans


I am pretty sure only 1 team will get in from the south, division winner so


bills, dolphins, ravens, bengals, broncos, chargers and chiefs for 2 spots

I think miami, and the chiefs are pretenders


bills, ravens, bengals, broncos and chargers fight for the 2 wild card spots
