Re: Frank Gore, Curtis Martin, and Derrick Henry

Speaking of Henry ... very ineffective even in short yardage since Jackson has been out of the lineup. Has to be frustrated, especially with defenses daring him to run. Not sure how bad the blocking is, but hopefully Brissett can hit the receivers and help lighten the boxes. I still believe if the R...

Re: Frank Gore, Curtis Martin, and Derrick Henry

Henry is a great player which everyone knows but he is also benefitting from an era where tackling and hitting are more lacking due to fines and rules changes. You forgot to even mention Adrian Peterson who was even more of a big-play runner. These Are My Top Backs Payton Brown Sanders Simpson Sayer...

Re: 5 Contributor Nominees advance for Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2027

Thanks Ken ... I forgot about Giddings Sr and Siwoff of Elias as well. I also feel if Nunn can get voted in, Wells could as well. I need to know more about Brocato, whose name sounds like it was from Rosemary's Baby ... haha. What could also hurt Wells is reporting to Don Klosterman, who has his own...

Re: Late 80’s-Early 90’s Oilers - Hall of Very Good?

Yes, with Childress ... Hill is another good option, though he was more the deep outside threat, while Givens worked the inside over the middle more. Once Jeffries emerged, Givens and Hill caught less passes but for little receivers, very tough, especially on that cement surface with a turf so thin,...

Re: 2026 NFL Season wks 5 - 8

I will admit, the Jets could easily be 4-4 but it doesnt help having Hall and Cooper hurt, though Allen is finally playing to his potential. Smith has protected the ball pretty well but still takes too many sacks but I still feel this team can win 6-7 games if they can get on a streak ... if not, it...

Re: 5 Contributor Nominees advance for Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2027

Getting back to your research on early scouting Ken, at least till the book comes out ... was there other pioneering scouts or pro personnel people that are getting overlooked or forgotten in the contributor process? Possible General Managers or team organizers similar to Peggy Parrett not getting t...

Re: PFHOF Class of 2027 elections

We all know who it will be, yet its also a chance for Holmgren to probably be the next in line, though if Tomlin were to stay out for 2027 -- though doubtful -- he could be the next first year eligible to correct the mistake of Belichick missing out. It would be bizarre, but with both in, the proces...

Re: 2026 NFL Season wks 5 - 8

With Brissett going to the Ravens, can he keep them in possible contention till Jackson comes back? Or will more losses keep Jackson motivated to stay out, even if/when he could play?

Re: 5 Contributor Nominees advance for Pro Football Hall of Fame Class of 2027

So Ken, you dont believe Vainisi was crucial in bringing in Lombardi? Helping out the coaches, GMs, scouts in helping bring all that HOF talent to GB? ... he had to have done more than being a traveling secretary, road logistics?
