win1soon Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 I feel just like you KOKBILLS, it has been a travesty that it took so long, and love the stats on Irvin, there is no way he should have gotten in before Reed, but the process seems to take into account, the guys who have a platform like NFL network. Not to mention a love for the loud and obnoxious player..i.e: Irvin, Sapp, Sanders, while the class acts like Bettis, Andre, and Art Monk have to wait. The next guy who is going to walk in will be Rodney Harrison, who was a solid player but not a HOF'er, but give a platform and introduce him every Sunday as a future HOF'er and the voters will agree.

Mr_Blizzard Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 So happy for Andre; this is way overdue. If he was playing with today's rules he could have added another 100 200 catches to his stats.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewildrabbit Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Andre Reed 234 games, 951 catches 13,198 16.9 average 87 TDs. Michael Irvin 159 games 750 catches 11,904 yards 15.9 average 65 TDs. Finally the better WR made the Hall of Fame. HOF has become a popularity contest with voters recently more than on the merits. I think that basehead bought his way into the HoF, or his team owner did for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted February 2, 2014 Author Share Posted February 2, 2014 I think that basehead bought his way into the HoF, or his team owner did for him. Clutch Playoff/Super Bowl Performances and Three Super Bowl Rings got Irvin in before Andre. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Noodlearm Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 That makes five (some people are forgetting Lofton) from those SB teams. Would have been more if they won one. That compares to old Steeler, Cowboy and Packer teams. How do you lose 4 with all of those Hall of Famers in their prime? Now that's a feat that will never be duplicated!

Captain Caveman Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Does Ray Guy getting in give any hope to Steve Tasker (maybe in 20 years)? Â It's going to be a long time before we get our next one in. Congrats, Andre! Â Yeah, I wonder how many more pro bowls Kyle would have to earn to be considered?

ExWNYer Posted February 2, 2014 Share Posted February 2, 2014 Does Ray Guy getting in give any hope to Steve Tasker (maybe in 20 years)? My brother and I were discussing this tonight. I think it does. Tasker revolutionized the gunner position and is considered by many to be the best Special Teams player of all-time. It probably won't be any time soon but I believe he'll eventually be a HOFer. IMHO, Kent Hull deserves to be in, too, but I don't think he'll make it. A Super Bowl win may have changed that and expedited Andre's entrance, as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
