Is Potsy Clark in the HOF? If not, its because he left the Lions, similar to another Lion's coach still waiting to get elected.

I have also heard that despite mail-in voting, the HOF still can set whatever preliminary list they want. Its probably why Darren Sharper doesnt make one. If he has, I have missed it.*

*Edited ... the last list he made was 2017, I believe ... need to research further ...

I had mailed in-ballot Brito before ... he didnt make it. Maybe the HOF lost my ballot? I also mail-ballotted Jim Benton. Who knows what they do?

Players That Made The List This Year But Not Last Year

Matheson
Putnam
Powell
Niland
Lloyd
BRITO
C Green
Robertson
A Woodson
Hadl
Blair
Perkins ... finally

Did I miss anyone? ... Still many that should have made the list

No Jim Benton?

The list was larger last year ... luckily they took off the worst cases but you have to make sure not to miss or omit those that are deserving. Gene Brito finally made it !!

Even tonight, the Packers defense was flying around. Parsons has made an impact. Imagine if the Bears could upset Detroit?

HGH could only help Peyton so long.

According to Pro Football-Reference, in 1995, Belichicks last year in Cleveland, Newsome was Director of Pro Personnel.

I believe so Osz ... because the Browns had Ozzie Newsome, who learned from Belichick, Modell and others. With Marchibroda not being renewed after 1995--along with Belichick in Cleveland--he still might have been hired as the Browns coach? Of course if the Browns stay in Cleveland, would Modell have...

True, but Folk is usually reliable ... he will help the Jets as the year goes along.
