Eh, I think all of the finalists have them. I couldn't find others with a search, but I found them by randomly changing Player IDs.

If Will Shields isn't in, I'm going to go start a fire somewhere. Probably in Canton.

No Will

Walter Jones. Was he really better than Will Shields?

I'm thinking if Shields were a LT he'd be an easy pick..

What more could Will Shields do over Walter Jones? He never missed a game, made 12 pro bowls, and played multiple positions, including left tackle, when needed. Neither of them got a ring, and it wasn't their fault. He should be a no-brainer pick over Jones.

Al Bundy 02-01-2014 06:06 PM

That is number 2 off that Superbowl Winning team for the Bucs. Ronde Barber will make it 3.

Fact is Tackles always make it over Guards...maybe not right, but a fact. Outside of specialist I would bet guard has the fewest inductees by position.

Tight ends and centers are underrepresented, but tackles and guards are pretty close in number.

Wow, I hate the NFL. Bunch of mf'ing boneheads. It's official.

They put in:

Derrick Brooks
Walter Jones
Andre Reed
Michael Strahan
Aeneas Williams

and both Claude Humphrey and Ray Guy.

Screw you, NFL. Strahan got in because he does Subway commercials. And Jones got in over Shields? Will Shields ate mortals like Walter Jones as halftime snacks. You know that Jones got in just so they could talk about it in the Super Bowl. It's all marketing.

Aeneas Williams FTW

Dungy's the only coach in history to overcome having Peyton Manning as his QB. The guy's earned it.

The fact that Walter Jones got in is proof that the game is rigged. The HoF knew that the Seahawks would win and were just riding the bandwagon.
