A new argument for Derrick Thomas' Hall of Fame discussion

[Rain Man]

Talk all you want about Charles Haley and Kevin Greene and Bruce Smith, but ten years after his death, Derrick Thomas was only 3 sacks away from leading the team, and only 1.5 sacks from being the leading linebacker on the team. That's unprecedented.


Sacks

Tamba Hali 3.0
Jason Babin 2.0
Derrick Johnson 1.5
Alphonso Boone 1.0
Glenn Dorsey 1.0
Ron Edwards 1.0
Pat Thomas 0.5
Derrick Thomas 0.0

too soon?

[Bowser]

You see, Jason Babin should have made the pro bowl, because spread out over a 16 game season, Babin would have had 14.5 sacks. [/Thigpen honk]
