I dont feel Seifert or the team believed that Craig's knee could recover properly. After eight years, bitter reality had set in, the Niners were gonna give up on him a year early than a year late. Like Foreman, Holmes, Davis, Sims and Andrews, it seemed to end too soon. The word around here was tha...

Hopefully Roger Craig finally gets in. It's ludicrous he's has to wait this long. Great player, and it's remarkable how Walsh utilized both him, and Rathman considering they both caught close to zero passes at Nebraska. Craig sadly I think has been a victim of the old thinking of believing a HOF run...

Whenever I watch clips of the 49ers of 1995 and more so 96, there’s one guy who I see getting picked on a lot: Tyrone Drakeford. I see Drakeford and Tim McDonald being thrown at all the time in those clips. And in 97 and 98 I see RW McQuarters and Darnell Walker thrown at a good amount. I don't thi...

I agree with Seahawk Fever. The late-90's 49ers had weak o-lines and weak schedules, and their defense wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. Also, I don't think the 98 Falcons were an 8-8 team disguised as 14-2, but maybe a 10-6 one (I predicted that they would go 10-6 and get a wild card before...

The 49ers were pretenders after 1994. Ok this is bogus. When your floor from 1995 to 1998 is the divisional round with a floor of at least 11 regular season wins, you aren't a pretender to win the SB or at least get there. Those 49ers teams could have gotten back to the SB, and the only blowout los...

Not only do I think those Falcons are overrated, the hate they get is deserved. 5 losing seasons in 6 years and sandwiched in between they just randomly made a Super Bowl with....... Chris Chandler Jamal Anderson was an average RB whose numbers looked good because he got a million carries against a...

The 2005 team was very good as well with Plummer at QB but didnt play well against the Steelers in the AFC championship game. Plummer would get replaced by Cutler soon afterward which I feel in hindsight, was a mistake. Why Plummer didnt try to start for another team and resume his career is a myst...

Because he was never that good. Even for HOVG.

The main five I mean are LT Billy Shields, LG Doug Wilkerson, C Don Macek, RG Ed White, and RT Russ Washington. I'm really interested as to why none have seemingly ever sniffed the HOF, while Fouts, Winslow, and Joiner are in. During the time Air Coryell was really hitting it's stride (1979 to 1985 ...

Sharpe was deserving, but you still have to wonder if Baughan and especially, Tyrer, were hung out to dry to ensure his election? I hope I am wrong because I really felt the voters would bring in Baughan but these young voters probably arent going to elect someone they havent seen or researched? It...
