NFL Hall Of Fame Or Superbowl Ring

You are a NFL rookie. When your career is over and it's all said and done....you can only have one....which would you prefer, Super Bowl Ring or a bust in the Hall of Fame?

HoF to me. People remember those in the hall but there are sooooo many superbowl winners who are forgotten by most.

The ultimate goal (for most players) is a Super Bowl Ring. But then again, a Hall of Fame career is something else.

Basically, you are asking if I want to be Dan Marino or Trent Dilfer and I would have to say Dan Marino...

HoF.

There are a shitload of guys every year who get a ring who really had nothing to do with that team winning. If you're in the Hall, you were an elite player among your peers.

I think I'd have to agree with Hall. You've had a great career, successful for a long period of time.

Having a ring, what does that really prove? The back ups get rings, too. Doesn't mean they actually EARNED it on the field.

Pretty much what Ward said I would much rather be the HoF even if I didn't have a SB ring.

I would say Super Bowl. True, everyone gets a ring when they win but it is a team game. If I am a rookie my goal would be to win a Super Bowl. Others have to put you in the Hall. A Super Bowl ring is something I would have a say in.

I wonder of Marino would trade his busy for a ring. Surely someone has asked him that question before right?

I'm pretty sure he would...

Here's a couple different opinions:

For Bruschi, choice between Super Bowl ring and HOF is a “no-brainer” | ProFootballTalk

To my example...lol...Trent Dilfer said he'd rather be Dan Marino than have a Super Bowl ring...
