Last time I checked neither one of them had 3 1,500 yard seasons and neither one of them every went past 2,000 yards.

And on the Eric Dickerson comment, I guess I did overlook him. TD had a better first 4 years than Walter Payton, Barry Sanders, Emmit Smith, and everybody else.

congrats to him on having 4 great seasons

LMAO no kidding. He was a very great cover corner, but he might as well have left the field on run plays.

I always joked that he went to Baltimore to cement his HOF career by making a tackle ROFL

DT

Epic fail dunver again.

In fairness to Portis & Anderson, they didn't play with a HOF qb that was making close to league minimum. The Pat Bowlen deferred compensation plan was shut down by the NFL before Portis and Anderson could play for the cheating donkies.

He didn't tackle for shit, but there wasn't a better cover corner in the NFL from the 90's on.

I don't like him, and I despised the Cowboys and 69ers (not Atl so much, though), but he cut off half of the field with his coverage.

Mike Anderson was a do nothing nobody that had virtually no ****ing skills and had had 1487 at 5 yards a clip.

Orlandis Gary, another do nothing nobody went for 1159 at 4.2 a clip as a rookie.

Reuben Droughns, a guy who is out of the league and up until being with Denver had a career season high rushing yard total of 72 yards, went for 1240 at 4.5 a clip.

Had Portis hung around in Denver more than likely he would have cracked the 2K barrier or come very close because he was by far the most talented of any of those backs.

Either way, there was nothing special about Terrell Davis. He was in the right place at the right time. He was lucky enough to play in that system at a time when defenses still had to respect Elway, Sharpe, Rod Smith, and McCaffery. You could have inserted any of 100 backs back there and gotten similar results and people know this now. Davis on any other team was nothing more than a backup and special teams player.

LeBeau and Crybaby Little are the two old-timer candidates, so I think they're considered separately than the regular limit. So one of the two will make it. Little was actually pretty good, but LeBeau had 60+ interceptions if I remember right, so he deserves it more.

5 plus the old-timer, or 5 including the old-timer?

Maybe it is 5 + the old timer. I forgot about that.

If Ray Guy cant get in... just do away with the punter position altogether, if it doesnt rate a player in the Hall.

Its a damned disgrace, like KISS or Neil Diamond not being in the Rock Hall but Madonna & RunDMC are... many :shake:'s.

I hate Ray Guy since he's a Raider, but at the same time I think he probably deserves a Hall spot. And I may have misheard, but I thought I saw somewhere that he was the leading votegetter among the semi-finalists this year in some big fan vote. I agree with you. If the position doesn't warrant consideration for the Hall, it should be eliminated somehow.
