I'm thinking they are going to induct the all decade RBs minus Jamal Lewis and leave everyone else to the senior committee. Maybe someone else gets through and Watters seems to be in front of the long long line of RB candidates(with Fred Taylor oddly enough)but he's running out of time. Think he's d...

The 02 Bucs are my default answer of this question. Not only did they have the defense with 4-5 HOFers(Rice over Lynch!!) their offense was solid and didn't need to hold teams to single digits to win averaging 35 a game during the playoffs. They had both Keshawn Johnson and McCardell at WR.

I disagree. The Cardinals were better than their record. First offensively Anquan Boldin meant teams couldn't double Fitzgerland(who went on a tear and got all the credit). Also the Cardinals had Edgerrin James which meant teams couldn't ignore the run. 4 of their starting skill players are going to...

Strongly disagree with Sanders. There's unspoken tiers within every sports HOF. The better HOFers won more awards, accolades, championships etc that's their extra reward. That's what the NFL 100 was for(or supposed to be for that was a mess). The football hall of fame is the more selective Hall of F...

For me the thing that makes this class so hard to predict is the Halls reluctancy to elect a few guys from one position. The ballots becoming increasingly dominated by WRs and edge rushers will they stick to position diversity even as the other position groups thin out? Prediction Peppers Holt or Wa...

Besides the whole "no WRs" thing(including technically Hester) this was a typical HOF class. Thomas and Revis were no brainers IMO and Ware was supposed to be a no brainer last year. No surprises there. Zach Thomas was never one of my 5 top guys on the ballot but with 7 PBs and 5 first tea...

I think Green needed the Cardinals stint to work out for him to make the HOF. When it looked like things were going to work on the Cardnials and they were winning last year and Green looked like he would reach 1000 yards I thought it was going to be hard to keep Green out(his averages were a little ...

Not my sport, but what I heard is that 3B is historically kind of weak, so he played the right position to be in the argument for top 10-12 or so. I don't really know, just wanted to bring up position may be relevant. IMO Rolen has a case on the sporting merits. The issue with the Hall of Fame is t...

Am very surprised Christensen almost came in last.

The cases I'm most interested in advancing on this list are Boldin and Barber. I don't expect either to get in this year. I expect Barber to be a finalist but I think hes more likely to get in next year. Last year showed just how unpredictable the voters could be but my predictions are Joe Thomas Wa...
