Buffalo 66 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 Who gets your vote?? Both played 16 years, Reed finished with 13,198 yards,951 receptions, 87 touchdowns, and 7 PRO BOWLS. Carter finished with 13,899 yards, 1,101 receptions, 130, touchdowns, and 8 PRO BOWLS Vert comparible stats, Reed gets my vote because he has been eligible longer and I believe was more valuable to his team, a team that won 4 consecutive AFC titles.

The_Philster Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 also a more complete WR...went across the middle with regularity, made tough catches in traffic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pozitive51 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 The both get in. Carter gets in first because he has been a high profile broadcaster since he retired. He is more connected than Andre Reed and this is the difference maker. Plus, we had two get in last year... a little hiatus from Bills fans dominating the weekend last year is okay with the HOF. We still have Reed, Tasker and possibly Bennet to go in from the Super Bowl years and then at least 15 years on nobody! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
billsfan89 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 All Cris Carter does is catch Touchdowns. Reed will get in next year this Carters year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steely Dan Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 also a more complete WR...went across the middle with regularity, made tough catches in traffic If Reed doesn't get in there is something majorly wrong with the system, I'd say it's my opinion but it's a fact baby!! When are the announcements? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geno Smith's Arm Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 He ain't gettin' in. And it's a shame. These are just the TD's, but he had loads of great plays that didn't score. Over the middle, and plays that he was stopped just short of the endzone etc. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=adDmdg5DD6Q http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wJMEweWGVTc Cris Carter's stats surprised me, but I watched him play, and he wasn't as good as AR, though he is higher profile in the media.

machinegun12 Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 I think Reed was a better football player, always making catches over the middle and stuff like that, where Cris Carter seemed to always be making his catches on the sidelines (unbelievable catches nonetheless), but Carter never played in a SB (and for those who say his teams weren't as talented, the 1998-2001 teams he was on choked in NFC Champ. game twice)... I think Reed's helmet slam and temper tantrum in SB 26 vs Washington was a sorry display for a Hall of Famer (some will say he was passionate, others say he was a baby). So I'll say Carter gets in today, Andre Reed gets in next year, and Tim Brown has to wait until after that. And I also think (being a Bills fan) that Darryl Talley is a Hall of Famer before Bennett ANY DAY!! (although I don't think either one of them ever get in) Talley was a leader and a warrior out there. One of my all time favorites. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarthICE Posted February 6, 2010 Share Posted February 6, 2010 The problem isn't carter, its the fact the greatest WR ever is up as well and he is an auto pick. No way they put in 3 WR's and I even doubt they put in 2 of them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
