No HOF for Ward again.

You claimed his last 3 years were "down years." I don't know how one of his "down years" was one in which he had the 2nd most in his career. In 2009 he had 1,167 yards, the 2nd highest of his career. That doesn't seem like a down year to me.

You are a ****** moron. Played the last half of his career with a good Quarterback. Who is better in the last 5 years of their career then the middle. If he plays with top tier his whole career he easily surpasses anyone on that list who has made the next cut. Instead he played with scrubs from 98-2003. Then 2004 he is playing with a rookie HOFer. And even after they still leaned heavy on the run. Then in the last two years he was pretty much done.

Can we all just agree that Hines deserves to be in the HOF?

^^^100%^^^

Fully agree, Harrison should be in.


Salute the nation

I would put Ward in before Harrison. Just my take. Ward to me is what a football player is all about. No doubt in my mind that he belongs in the HOF. Not saying Harrison doesn't. Just that Ward is a no brainer to me. Of course apparently others don't see it that way.

I sure as **** can. I don't even know what this tool is arguing. That because he got 5 good years with Ben including his rookie year he is not worthy.
As opposed to Marvin Harrison who played all but 2 of his entire career with Manning. And while character came up before you might want to do a little dive into Marvin Harrison's.

Imagine Ward / Ben / Harrison all going in simultaneously.!!!!

I know it would never happen, but WhoAley shittsizzle wouldn’t that be the cake.

He also had some guy named Roethlisberger throwing to him in 2004 to 2011, for over 7,000 yards

Yeah, now double that if he had a legit QB in a pass first offense throwing to him in his prime years from 98-03 like Harrison and Wayne had.

Except that he didn't.

 

[Coryea]

Except that he didn't.

Doesn't mean that can't be taken into consideration, especially when his position relies 100% on the QB getting him the ball.

Not denying that, but the world isn't usually based on "buts" like that, only based on what happens, stats.

Not denying that, but the world isn't usually based on "buts" like that, only based on what happens, stats.

Usually, but they've made exceptions, Terrell Davis only played 7 seasons and rushed for 7,000 yards and he got in because they looked at what he would've done had he played longer. That's just it, Ward has the "what happened" stats, even without the "buts" stats and he's still not in.

So tell us Coach Greg Lloyd, whose fault was that?

 

[SteveA]

Glad Dave Parker FINALLY made it in...People forget for 3 years 1976-1978 HE WAS THE BEST PLAYER IN BASEBALL...

AND The Cobra was still one bad *** on the '79 World Series winner....WAYYYYYYYY OVERDUE

I'm not arguing with you, Hines deserves to be in. So did TD. even with a relatively short career.
