Former Chiefs guard Will Shields says despite not being part of the Pro Football Hall of Fame's 2014 Class, he's grateful to be mentioned among the greats of the game.

"It’s a great honor to be on that list," Shields said. "Me not getting in doesn’t tarnish anything that's been done over the 14 years of my career. It's still a positive thing. It's okay. There’s nothing I can do to change it. There are a lot of great guys that have played and had great careers on the field and some of them had great careers off the field. All I can say is I put my best foot forward and did everything I possibly could, on the field and off the field. My goal was to be the best teammate, the best player to always end up in the top-tier of what I did and then everything else falls into place after that. That’s sort of the way I looked at my career. Every day I stepped on the field, I wanted to be the best player I could be, on that day, and then after that, whatever happens, happens; I can’t control anything beyond that. I can control my little space, helping out my tackle or helping out my center, or those kind of things, and beyond that, I really can’t control the other pieces. I’ve done what I can do and I have to let the chips fall where they may."

Here's to hoping the chips fall in favor of Will, next season, for the Class of 2015.

Wouldn't surprise me if Blob Gretz has his ****ing hands allover this. It took someone else taking over the campaign to get Derrick Thomas in the HoF finally, because he was such a colossal **** up.

Not positive, but I think Covitz that handles that now. I know he is the KC voter on the committee.

He was pretty great. He's a HOF'er. What stinks is he's a first ballot and Roaf wasn't.

I think people are knocking these guys because some of them played in lesser known markets... which is the same thing probably hurting Shields. Jones might be the best player in this class.

Oh, I know why Walter Jone is so highly regarded. Shaun Alexander.

And Roaf still may not be in if Jason Whitlock didn't go on a personal mission to let everyone know he should be there.

Walter Jones played 12 years, 180 games. He helped make Shaun Alexander and Steve Hutchinson a lot of money.

Over his entire 180 game career... he allowed a total of 23 sacks, and was called for holding nine times. Nine.

Charles Tillman might be my new favorite player after that.

Ray Guy was put in by the Seniors Committee. If we go back and look at the stats, I'll bet Jerrell Wilson's stats are almost if not as good as Guy's.

Guy played 14 seasons, averaging 42.4 gross. We don't know net. His best season was a 45.3 gross, and that was his only season above 44.0.

Jerrell Wilson played 16 seasons, averaging 43.0 gross. We don't know net. His best season was a 45.5 gross, and he had 7 seasons averaging more than 44.0.

Dave Lewis was another guy who was very good at his peak, but he had a very short career (with the Bengals). He only played 4 seasons, with a career 43.7 gross. His best season was a 46.2, and he had 2 seasons above 44.0.
