Quote: "No player amassed more sacks during 1990s than 116.5 by Thomas."
This is the main reason I think he should be in. He was the best sack artist for an entire decade. He had more during the '90's than Bruce Smith and Reggie White, although White did not play in '99. We had one losing season in 11 seasons with him, and we've only had one winning season out of five without him. How many other players have had such a dramatic effect on their team's fortunes? |

He should go and it should be now. That ten year stretch shows a level of dominance that is worthy of a first round selection.

DT deserves to be a 1st ballot HOFamer. I think he has got a good chance since Harry Carson is the only other LB besides him up for the HOF.

I think DT has a great chance.
I was just over at the Madden BB and pretty much everyone there thinks he should be in... |

SWEET! I really didn't think he would make the final 15 but now that he has, I think he has got a good chance for a 1st ballot induction especially since Kevin Greene (160 career sacks) didn't make the top 15!

I thought he was just a backup college ball player that turned to coaching, then got a big break and got to go back and coach his college football team but it only lasted for one season because of his kids.
