Taking over the number one slot on the Notinhalloffame.com Football List is Derrick Brooks, who arguably might be the greatest player in the history of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Brooks was the starting Right Linebacker for the Bucs and was a major part of the defensive makeover that turned them from an afterthought to a Super Bowl winner. He was…

Football
Easily the best Wide Receiver ever to play for the Indianapolis Colts in the history of their franchise, Marvin Harrison was blessed to have Peyton Manning as his Quarterback. Of Course, Manning was equally blessed to have Marvin Harrison as his primary target. Harrison was a workhorse for the Colts setting outstanding numbers, though it was his Yards and Receptions per…

4. Michael Strahan
Published in
Football
The first few professional seasons of Michael Strahan’s career were solid, but largely non-descript and did not showcase what we feel would eventually amount to a Hall of Fame career. However, once the gap toothed one found his groove, there was no looking back. Michael Strahan emerged as the defensive anchor for the New York Giants and would become one…

Although we don’t have Chuck Howley at the number one spot we can argue that he is hands down the most disrespected on our football list. We don’t feel that way because he has not been inducted; we feel that we because he has never made the ballot!

The Oakland Raiders had a pirate on their helmet and nobody embodied that renegade image more than Ken Stabler. Coincidently, that very image that made him so popular may be what inhibits him from Hall contention.Stabler wasn’t just popular because of his tough everyman personality. “The Snake” was also a very successful quarterback who always found a way to win. …

What we do admire about the Football Hall of Fame is that they very rarely let top stars wait long. This is usually the case regardless of the position. Every year we expect an elite NFL superstar to vault to the top of our rankings on their first year of eligibility. Although he is not our top rated Offensive Lineman,…

Published in
Football
With nine members of the 1970’s Pittsburgh Steelers already in the Football Hall of Fame, you would think that the team that won four Super Bowls in that decade would be sufficiently represented in Canton. Some have said that they have the right amount, but the wrong representatives. Those people point to L.C. Greenwood as the omission.As a member of…

9. Andre Reed

The Buffalo Bills took a lot of flak for losing four consecutive Super Bowls, but only a very talented team could ever get into that position. The offense was a triumvirate of stars which included Jim Kelly (Quarterback), Thurman Thomas (Running Back) and their Wide Receiver, Andre Reed. The first two are in the Football Hall of Fame.

Charles Haley is the answer to the envious trivia question as to which football player has the most Super Bowl Rings. Haley captured five Super Bowls in eight years with the 49ers and Cowboys, but he was not just a long for the ride as he was one of the key defenders on all of the championship teams. During his…

A very strong case can be made to justify the induction of Roger Craig to the Football Hall of Fame. This makes it all the more bizarre that the powerful Running Back had to wait ten years to even get nominated.There could be no doubt that during his prime that Roger Craig was an integral part of every offensive play. …
