The pre-NFL players I recall discussing on here are Peggy Parratt and Norm Sacksteder (spelling?). Why were they not the selections?
Also, I take it coaches are on the same ballot as players? I don't assume Halas, Lambeau, and Chamberlin are getting in as players.

Re: Pro Football Hall of Fame question
Do we really think Fritz Pollard would get considered in 1946? This was a time even before Jackie Robinson's MLB debut.

Re: Clark Kent Wild Card Weekend
The correct move for the Vikings next year to both win now and prepare for the future is to let Darnold walk and get paid elsewhere, and sign Rodgers to a 1 year deal, who will bring Adams with him. This offense will be obscene for the year or two it's together, and preserves the developmental timel...

Re: lame streaks
To be completely honest, I think sitting starters in W18 is way lamer than letting one take the first snap for a streak. It completely screws up playoff scenarios. It should be punished with draft pick deduction. Justice for Burrow, may he brutalize the Chiefs unrecognizably next year. 555 yards and...

Re: 2024 NFL Playoff Predictions
Yeah, that was not a great way to end the season, but overall we've been pretty hot, most impressively torching the Chargers. Love me some Buckyneer though.

Re: lame streaks
As a Bucs fan, I promise we would've been outraged if Bowles wouldn't give Mike his record and his money on that last play. That man is going to be our first ever offensive HOFer and we want him to retire here. He turned down a fat stack from the Chiefs to stay, loyalty has to go both ways. Always f...

Re: 2024 NFL Playoff Predictions
Haha ... yeah, at first, you read that Hurts is still in concussion protocol, then I read reports he will be fine for the game. It doesnt help that Watson will be out for the Packers, but with their run game and young offensive talent, like last postseason, anything can happen. With the Bucs, as us...

Re: Pro Football Hall of Fame question
Isbell might've gotten in if the HOF existed while he was playing, but if it waited until very long after, everyone expected more longevity by then. Oh, don't forget Benny Friedman, who'd have been one of the first guys in.

Not such a crazy Packers fan, I guess. I'm crazy enough to think Bucs beat Philly... again.

Re: 2024 NFL Playoff Predictions
I like the Detroit vs. Baltimore Suepr Bowl call. I'm gonna say the Ravens win that tho. They lost some unbelievably bad regular season matchups due to poor playcalling, but they're hot now and I can't imagine they leave anything on the field this time. When they run Henry 25+ times, they simply win...
