Troy Aikman and 16 others who don't belong in the Hall of Fame

one of the worst threads in coli history

What makes Marcus Allen a for sure fire NFL hall of famer though. Cause I didn't realize he only had 3 1000 yard seasons and they were at the beginning at that. He has longevity I know and Al screwed him during the prime of his career but going is he really a Hall of Famer going season by season?

I think he had the Rushing TDs record for a minute...

...but that's fraud chit anyway. When he was with the Chiefs,
they'd drive down to the 1 and then put him in to dive in for the score. Fucc that chit.

Fucc Marcus Allen, and fucc the Chiefs as a staff, a label, and a fuccin' crew.
If you wanna be down with Marcus Allen, fucc you too.
Nicole Brown-Simpson, fucc you too.
North Oak Toyota, fucc you too.


That said, I agree with a few on this list.

Star QB of only team to win 3 in 4 years (without cheating ) doesn't belong in HoF. :tyron:

How quickly people forget Aikman was most accurate passer in league history before NFL turned into Ryan Tannehill having more 4K yard seasons than Montana.

List doesn't make much sense if you didn't read the whys



Yeah, I said it. Zero All-Pro teams. Five of 12 seasons at .500 or below. Barely more touchdown passes (165) than interceptions (141). His approximate value on pro-football-reference ranks No. 167 overall, behind Warrick Dunn, Ricky Watters, Steve McMichael, Henry Ellard, Randall Cunningham, Boomer Esiason, Drew Bledsoe, London Fletcher, Dave Krieg, Donovan McNabb and so many other ridiculous names. Brad Johnson has more touchdown passes as does Jon Kitna, Chris Chandler and Jim Everett and, well, so many other ridiculous names. His passer rating is 49th in league history. He has three Super Bowls? Great. That’s one more than Eli Manning. Aikman was a fine NFL quarterback. He was a very fine NFL quarterback. At points he was a superb NFL quarterback. He was not a Hall of Fame quarterback.

O.J. not deserving to be in the H.O.F. is strictly football related, of course.

He wrote OJ then crossed him out. So technically he's not on this list




A lot of people want O.J. out of the Hall and his bust tossed in a dumpster somewhere. I get their point. I don’t disagree either. But the Hall is about on-field exploits and, more importantly, I think it’s good to have O.J. in there as a lesson, so parents can pass by it and tell their kids, “see, you can have it all one day and be a hero, then — poof — it can all be gone the next.”

So Curtis Martin doesn't belong?

I love Curtis Martin. I think Curtis Martin was a beast on the football field. He’s the type of player I’d want on my team every year. But count him in the Carter/Palmeiro group: At no point in his career was Curtis Martin (who, to be fair, was underrated) considered one of the NFL’s best running backs. When that happens, a Hall bid is a gift.

Still @ this nikka putting Bob Hayes on the list.

What kind of heresy is this

 

[GoonbergScandal]

I don't even watch football yet knows Troy is a hall of fame lock, and deserves his spot.

That's when playing in a market like New York becomes a real advantage.

Indoors, you mean.

Being accurate shouldn't get you into the hall.

Just admit you were born during the Cowboys dynasty years

Did I say I had no issue with Griese? I thought the discussion was about Aikman. Leader my ass.

The list mentioned Griese and you zeroed in on Aikman.

Emmitt Smith calling him a leader>>>a Canuck who posts on the Coli

Elway was overrated and I STILL put him in ahead of Aikman. Curious. How old are you?

There is a good chance I'm older than you, and I've watched the NFL longer than you. I've shytted on you in the past in football history convos because you didn't watch the sport as closest and as much as you think. I'm not the one.

Aikman was never elite level. He was always dwarfed by his contemporaries in the stats column. All that talent he played with and had meh numbers.

Aikman didn't have the numbers as others because he played in a heavy run offense. When a play needed to be made in the air or it was a 3rd and long, Aikman made that play. He was as clutch as they come.

And he was a big time winner, including shytting on your 49ers when they had dominant teams. He is worthy of being in the hall of fame.

This is completely untrue

I'm in my 30's...I watched more than enough Cowboys games along with other teams.

Aikman has always been overrated to me....and obviously I'm not the only one.

Marcus Allen is from San Diego so I approve his induction.
