    Anyone who had played five years ago would now be a candidate for the Hall of Fame. That doesn’t mean they’re gonna come close to getting in. I fully expect him to be ignored by the HOF voters . Who in history has ever made the Hall of Fame purely as a kick returner

    Not only that, he was a good K/P returner, but not one of the best ever. No way he even sniffs the HOF.

    I disagree I think he was one of the best ever but still again name me any Hall of Famer his primary job was to return kicks

    I've always been more partial to Eric Metcalf who could do it all and had 12 total punt/KO returns for TDs.

    Considering how often you seem to be coming to DieHard's rescue lately, I think he'd have to get in line behind you. 

    Not that there is anything wrong with that, of course.

    I would put his chances of getting in...ever....at 5% on this vote I'm gonna say 0%

    My first take was I'd agree... except have you looked at this year's nominees?

    I’m with you. Besides I think Metcalf should be considered before Josh. Josh was awesome but Metcalf did more as a runner and receiver.

    No doubt. And his daddy Terry was a great football player.

    Many seem to forget that Cribbs was pretty damn good on coverage too and made many tackles. Hell, his jersey is already there.

    Close maybe but I would give the edge to Metcalf......but enjoyed watching them both.   Steve Tasker is still my #1 on the most deserving ST list.
