    I don't tune in because of an announcer, but I will definitely tune one out! If Cowboy is calling a Reds game I won't watch it.

    There have been a few incidents since NE signed him that would definitely be a red light for NFL teams.

    However, if he were to get counseling and his name were cleared from the sexual assault case, I think there would be some teams that would be very interested in signing him. But if they did and he started with the shenanigans again, he would probably get cut.

    From Rotoworld:

    Antonio Brown has locked himself inside his own house in response to his Hollywood, Florida battery investigation.
    Brown is a suspect in a battery investigation involving a moving truck worker. His trainer has been taken into custody and charged with battery already, and the police are looking to speak with Brown to gather more information. That's been difficult. Public information officer Christian Lata told reporters that attempts to contact Brown have been unsuccessful because Brown has "locked himself in his house." Lata said the investigation is ongoing and more information will surface. This latest antic further increases the odds that Brown has already played his final NFL snap.

    Are there any other QB's with two Super Bowl victories and a .500 or less career victory total? 117-117 for Eli.

    Jim Plunkett. His teams went 72-72 in NFL games he started and Plunkett was the QB on two Super Bowl winning teams.

    Two very special players.

    What a strange coincidence that he and Eli were exactly .500.

    Eli is soooooo overated it's not even funny. His career stats are incredibly average but we want to put him in because he beat the 18-0 Patriots. His team scored 17 points in that game too. 17! And he needed a miraculous catch by a receiver to boot. He is simply in the HOF because of that. That's it. If Tyree doesn't make that catch, we're not debating whether he's deserving. But because he won 2 Super Bowls, he's a HOFer.

    I just believe the NFL is putting too much emphasis on winning a Super Bowl for whether you're worthy or not. His career stats, no matter which one you choose, it screams someone like Joe Flacco.

    Joe Flacco was never going to win twice.

    He's not overrated just because of that. He's overrated because of that and he played for the Giants and his last name is Manning. And it's the writers that vote on the HOFers. Which means he'll probably get in for sure.
