NFL Hall of Fame Finalists
-
No quarterbacks up this year which opens it up for others. And only one running back.
-
No Clay Matthews again.

then they got it wrong !!!

Because not enough All-Pro deals. I've said a bunch of times, if Clay had played for the Steelers, he'd have been in long ago.

Yes others like Boselli, Atwater or anyone on the list might slide in in a non-superstar class. Perfect year for Clay Matthews if he were there.

Law and Hutchinson

-
Champ Bailey deserves it too..
-
Ed Reed and Tony Gonzales are locks.
Coryell as well IMO...
Hutchinson should be in already. The man was the gold standard at OG. This is his time.
Seymore is deserving as well. Might squeak in...
-
Well....if we were just going based on a combination of All Pro and Pro Bowl selections then the pecking order would be as follows:
Gonzales....20
Baily.....15
Faneca....15
Reed...14
Hutchinson...12
Lynch....11
Mawae....11
Atwater....10
Seymour...10
Boselli...8
Law....7
James...5
Bruce.....4.
And I would not be surprised or upset if the ones actually elected are the ones at the top of this list.

again.. as I said before.....justify this over and above others whose career had overall better numbers

Could, perhaps should be.

And I do believe "squeak in" is right.

Next year Lynch and Atwater! Both played great @ S for Denver in their respective times.

Then why no consideration for Dixon or Minnifield.....who played just as well really.

Alan Faneca = 9 probowls
Alan Faneca should be disqualified for the fact he was part of the Steelers roster that was there when the Rooneys personal drug pimp Richard Rydze was having $250,000/month worth of HGH and Steroids sent from BALCO Labs to the Steelers team facility. No one from those years are deserving of the HOF.

He has been a finalist 4 times already without getting in. So...maybe that HAS been a factor.
-
He should even BE a finalist. Beside it obviously isn't a factor as other juicemonkeys like Hines Ward got in despite being roided to the gills and a dirtbag.

Hines Ward is NOT in the HOF. I believe he may have been a semi-finalist....but he is definitely not in. Maybe exactly because he was considered such a dirtbag (dirty player)
The only Steelers who have made the HOF who played for them since the mid 90s are Dermonti Dawson and Jerome Bettis.
Others may make it: Pollymolly...and eventually BR.

Dixon 3 X Pro-bowl 2 X All-Pro
Minnifield 4 X Pro-Bowl 1 All-Pro
Lynch 9 X Pro-bowl 2 X All-Pro
Atwater 8 X Pro-Bowl 2 X All-Pro
The difference seems to be in how many Pro-Bowls they were invited to. All-Pro pretty much the same.

& as I mentioned, that's what's keeping Mathews out, only 4 Pro Bowls & second team all pro once. But taking into account he played for 19 seasons, that should count for something in the minds of the voters....

If Baker and Myles keep playing as well or better than they are now without major injuries, I can see HOF for both some day.
