Title: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: CF DolFan on February 02, 2023, 09:19:24 am The Donna Kelce thread got me to thinking about which family has been the most successful in the NFL. Off the top of my head I came up with this list but I'm sure I'm mising some. Who did I miss and who do you think has been the most successful?
Manning - Archie, Peyton, Eli, and soon to be Arch Bosa-Kumerow - John Bosa, Joey Bosa, Nick Bosa, Eric Kumerow, Jake Kumerow Kelce- Travis, Jason Barber - Ronde, Tiki McCourtey- Devin and Jason McCourty Harbough - Jim and John Harbough Mathews - Clay, Bruce and Clay Mathews Jr Phillips Bum and Wade Phiiips Griese Bob and Brian Griese Ryan- Buddy, Rex and Rob Ryan Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on February 02, 2023, 09:55:30 am Gronkowski 4 out 5 brothers played in NFL
Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: fyo on February 02, 2023, 10:09:06 am JJ Watt just retired, but he has two brother (TJ and Derek) that are still in the NFL.
Chris Long and his dad both won a Super Bowl (not many cases of that, I would wager). The brother, Kyle Long, played oline for the Bears for a good stretch.

His cousin is in the NFL but not Pats. Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: CF DolFan on February 02, 2023, 11:34:39 am Gronkowski 4 out 5 brothers played in NFL Really? That’s interesting as I didn’t know any of them did. Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: DenverFinFan on February 02, 2023, 12:25:29 pm Pat Surtain and Son
Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on February 02, 2023, 12:37:09 pm You could say that Howie and Chris had a LONG time of success in the NFL.
There are five father/son groups to win the SB. Long Griese Ronnie Lott and Ryan Nece Bruce Davis Colquitt Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: Spider-Dan on February 02, 2023, 02:29:58 pm I think JJ and TJ are the only relatives to win MVP/DPOY.
Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on February 02, 2023, 02:45:19 pm The Belichick family has a total of 13 SB rings.
Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: CF DolFan on February 02, 2023, 04:25:13 pm Peyton and Eli have 4 Super Bowl wins. 3 Super bowl MVPs, and 5 NFL MVPs. I think it starts with them.
Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: MyGodWearsAHoodie on February 02, 2023, 04:46:24 pm Peyton and Eli have 4 Super Bowl wins. 3 Super bowl MVPs, and 5 NFL MVPs. I think it starts with them. I think Manning is the consensus most successful family. However, using the combined records of Manning - 4 SB, 3 SBMVP and 5 NFLMVP as a metric you might say the most successful "family" is actually the "Brady" with 7SB, 5 SBMVP and 3 NFLMVP.

Christian obviously, Dad Ed played many years for Denver and Uncle Max played in the NFL. I think he has 2 other uncles who are/were coaches. Not the best, but at least should be mentioned Title: Re: Most succesful NFL family (Not Owners) Post by: masterfins on February 03, 2023, 12:15:41 pm I'll add a Miami entry with Glenn & Lyle Blackwood, part of the Killer Bees defense of the 80's.
