This run with Teddy is making his case for the Hall Of Fame. He already has a winning percentage over .600, a championship, and a regular in the playoffs. The last few games have shown he can still win without Brees.

Also consider that he’s got at least 5 seasons with the Saints and he’s getting closer to 200 wins.I would love to see him and Drew get a second ring. That would put a huge exclamation point on both of their careers. And yes, SP is definitely making a strong case right now
In my opinion, there are four coaches that have defined the 2000s so far: Coughlin, Payton, Tomlin, and Belechick. Coughlin has had two Super Bowls. Belechick is a lock so that needs no explanation. Payton and Tomlin each have one, but they each have a winning percentage over .600. I think that makes a strong case.If he wins another SB he will get looks, but there is too much competition for the 5 slots to be sure he will even be a semi-finalist.
The problem is for the HoF coaches have to compete with players for a mere 5 spots not just with each other.In my opinion, there are four coaches that have defined the 2000s so far: Coughlin, Payton, Tomlin, and Belechick.

I didn’t mention Dungy because he’s already in the Hall.
True. But if he can get to 200 wins or even close within the range of Bud Grant at 158 with a championship; I think he has a good shot.The problem is for the HoF coaches have to compete with players for a mere 5 spots not just with each other.
I think that he needs another ring or 2. Maybe one of those after Drew retires. He deserves the honor through my B&G glasses, but a coach getting in is a tough task.True.

I totally agree that he’ll deserve it when it’s all said and done. But after the suspension, after being the whipping post of the NFL, they won’t do it.

Unless I'm mistaken, I don't think the NFL has anything to do with the Hall of Fame. It's not the NFL Hall of Fame. It's the Professional Football Hall of Fame, and it's a completely separate entity. Either way, as long as Roger Goodell never sniffs the ballot, I'll be happy.There are several players/administrators already in the NFL Hall of Fame that have faced hefty fines/suspensions. As long as Payton keeps winning, his resume will become too decorated to ignore.
