The two Super Bowl-winning executives will have their candidacies reviewed by the Hall of Fames Contributor Selection Committee on Jan. 31. They will need to receive 80 percent of votes cast to receive enshrinement. Polian was the architect of the AFC powerhouse Buffalo Bills teams of the early 1990s that went to four straight Super Bowls, then later helped the Indianapolis Colts to a pair of conference titles and a victory in Super Bowl XLI during a 15-year run as GM and team president from 1997-2011. In between, he served as the first GM as the expansion Carolina Panthers in 1994 and quickly assembled a team that reached the NFC Championship Game in its second season of existence. Its an incredible honor that I never envisioned ever happening, said Polian when he learned of becoming a finalist. Wolf is best known for reestablishing the Green Bay Packers back to prominence in the 1990s, an era highlighted by back-to-back Super Bowl appearances during the 1997 annd 1998 seasons that included a win over New England in Super Bowl XXXI.dddddddddddd The Packers compiled a 92-52 record during Wolfs nine-year term as GM from 1992-2000 and went to the playoffs six straight times during that period. Prior to joining Green Bay, Wolf worked two stints in the Raiders front office beginning in 1963 and was a part of another Super Bowl title during the 1983 season. I realize that none of this would be possible without an awful lot of support from a lot of other people, said Wolf in a statement. The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced in August it would be adding a contributor category that would be separate from the candidate list of ex- players and coaches. The decision was made to address the lack of Hall of Fame members that were former commissioners, owners and general managers. Over the HOFs last 49 years of voting, only nine people who fall under the contributor label have received induction. The Hall of Fame announced a preliminary list of 113 nominees for its 2015 class in September, with that group to be reduced to 25 semifinalists in November before 15 finalists will be voted upon in January.
