Joe Mixon was a beast of a Running Back at the University of Oklahoma, though off-field issues likely cost him on Draft Day, where he fell to the Second Round of the 2017 Draft, landing with the Cincinnati Bengals.

Mixon was decent as a rookie (628 Rushing Yards, 4 TDs), but he made his expected move to a higher echelon of RBs, as a sophomore, breaking 1,100 Rushing Yards, and doing so again in 2019.  An injury held Mixon to only six Games in 2020, but last season Mixon had a personal best 1,205 Rushing Yards, with 13 Touchdowns on the ground.  He was rewarded with his first Pro Bowl, and was instrumental in the Bengals march to a Super Bowl appearance.  In 2002, Mixon again exceeded 1,000 Yards From Scrimmage.

Mixon's 2023 would be his last as a Bengal, and he departed Southern Ohio with his fourth 1,000-Yard year.  He was traded to the Houston Texans in a cost-cutting move after, and compiled 8,551 Yards From Scrimmage and 62 Touchdowns for Cincinnati

Yes, we know that this is taking a while!

As many of you know, we here at Notinhalloffame.com are slowly generating the 50 of each major North American sports team.  That being said, we have existing Top 50 lists out and we always consistently look to update them when we can and based on necessity.  As such, we are very happy to present our post-2021 revision of our top 50 Los Angeles Chargers.

As for all of our top 50 players in football we look at the following: 

1.  Advanced Statistics.

2.  Traditional statistics and how they finished in the National Football League. 

3.  Playoff accomplishments.

4.  Their overall impact on the team and other intangibles not reflected in a stat sheet.

Last year, the Los Angeles Chargers failed to make the playoffs but were one of the more exciting teams to watch with several young players on the rise.  There were no new entrants in the Top 50, but one jump of an existing player.

As always, we present our top five:

1. Junior Seau

2. LaDainian Tomlinson

3. Lance Alworth

4. Dan Fouts

5. Philip Rivers

The only change on the list is Nick Bosa, who climbed from #50 to #39.  The 2016 Defensive Rookie of the Year went to his fourth Pro Bowl last season.

You can find the entire list here.

We welcome your input and comments and as always, we thank you for your support.

Two weeks into the 2022 NFL Season, we have another significant retirement to look at in Football, as Joe Haden, who just signed a one-day contract with the Cleveland Browns, his original team, has announced his retirement.

Haden was a BCS Champion and All-SEC Selection at Florida, and the Cornerback parlayed his collegiate success to a 7^th Overall Selection in the 2010 Draft by Cleveland. 

Haden would win the starting Left Cornerback job during his rookie season, and he would later earn Pro Bowl accolades in 2013 and 2014, and recorded 19 Interceptions for the Browns before he signed with division rival Pittsburgh in 2017.

With the Steelers, Haden played five years, netting another ten picks with a third Pro Bowl coming in 2019.  Over his 12 NFL seasons, Haden had 29 Interceptions with 615 Tackles.

Haden will be eligible for the Pro Football Hall of Fame in 2027, and while he is unlikely to enter, we will be uploading his biography and option to vote soon.  He was however ranked #120 Overall in our 2022 pre-season rank of active players to consider for Canton.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to wish Joe Haden the best in his post-playing career.

Hours after we learned of the retirement of Zdeno Chara, another major Defenseman is calling an end to his life as professional Hockey player.

P.K. Subban, who was one of the most dynamic Canadian-born defensemen over the last fifteen years is hanging up the skates at the age of 33.

From Toronto, Subban won two Gold Medals in World Junior Hockey action, before he joined the team that drafted him in the second round in 2007, Montreal.  Subban was an All-Rookie in 2010-11, and two years later in the strike-shortened 2012-13 campaign, he won the Norris Trophy on the strength of a 38 Points in 42 Games.  With the Habs, Subban was a First Team All-Star not only in his Norris year, but also two years later.

In a shocking trade, Subban was sent to Nashville in a deal that saw fellow defensive star, Shea Weber go the other way.  Subban remained strong in his new environment, collecting Second Team All-Star honors in 2018, a year after he propelled the Predators to their first Stanley Cup appearance.  The charismatic superstar concluded his career with two seasons in New Jersey, where he won the King Clancy Award in what is his now his final year.

In addition to his two Golds as a Junior, Subban won Gold for Canada in 2014 Olympics.

Subban will be eligible for the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2025.

We here at Notinhalloffame.com would like to wish P.K. Subban the best in his post-playing career.
