I agree. It should be it's own Contributor Hall of Fame, or it's own wing of the Hall of Fame that is housed next to Bob Griese's glasses.

Congratulations to Don Coryell and his nomination for the HOF !
A true offensive innovator in both college and the Pros ...
Buddy Parker continues to await his turn but at least an owner wasnt selected.

Art Modell loses out again. It's a good day.

We will see if the Coaches/Contributor list comes out next week ...
Could a HC get in two straight years, or will an owner (Kraft?)
As long as its not Modell or Rosenbloom, though they were important to league growth--and profits and gambling--

Guessing it will be Kraft's year.
IMO Holmgren has edge on the other coaches.
Could be wrong but there are 2 SB-win guys like Shanahan, Seifert, and Coughlin kind of canceling each other out. Not sure why but
Holmgren gets a lot of discussion among voters so tend to agree with your thoughts
With so many guys--there have to be a lot of one-vote ties... anytime you get more than 25
guys on a list of 25 kinda shows more than a handful are getting just a single vote and
there will be > 25 on both, I think.
But the good part is extra guys do get on the list...for what little that is worth
