It took me a while to quit thinking about that. Elway had retired so the O was different but who knows? I'm glad for what I got.

Couldn't the same thing be said about Roger Craig and Montana/Rice/Taylor?

How many are we supposed to vote for? Is it one per team? Top three? I can't vote until I understand the instructions.

I'm pretty sure Marcus Allen and LT are the only two first ballot HOF'ers on here.

Kaepernick 09-07-2013 04:45 PM
It has to be Tomlinson going away. Others did as much for short periods. Okoye was bruising and I always loved watching Priest Holmes and Terrell Davis. But nobody sustained it like LaDanian Tomlinson. Allen is the only one who could have topped him if he hadn't been benched for 2 years.

Other than that, I PUKE on the jackass that first called LaDanian Tomlinson LT.

LT is was and always will be Lawrence Taylor, first and foremost. There is no other LT but Lawrence Taylor.

Yes but when used in context it's a lot easier to abbreviate.

It is not just about HOF status or potential

Or Young/Watters/Rathman/Rice/Taylor?

Denver - Terrell Davis easy, despite the short career.

KC - I started to pick Priest, but all homer aside, it's hard to ignore 5.9 career yards per career. That's beyond amazing. I went with Charles.

Oakland - Marcus Allen. There is no second place.

SD - Everyone will vote for Tomlinson, and I can understand that, but the best running back suiting up for San Diego is James Brooks. That guy was amazing and never got the credit he deserved. He had a 4.7 ypc career average, though the majority of his career with with Cincinnati. He was a dangerous running back.

HOF status pretty much directly correlates with how great you played on the field.

Interesting - Never heard of him before
