Re: Best ever Broncos team that isn’t ’97, ’98, or 2015?

The 2005 team was very good as well with Plummer at QB but didnt play well against the Steelers in the AFC championship game. Plummer would get replaced by Cutler soon afterward which I feel in hindsight, was a mistake. Why Plummer didnt try to start for another team and resume his career is a myst...

Because he was never that good. Even for HOVG.

Anyone else surprised none of the Air Coryell OL made the HOF?

The main five I mean are LT Billy Shields, LG Doug Wilkerson, C Don Macek, RG Ed White, and RT Russ Washington. I'm really interested as to why none have seemingly ever sniffed the HOF, while Fouts, Winslow, and Joiner are in. During the time Air Coryell was really hitting it's stride (1979 to 1985 ...

Re: PFHOF 2025: a four-man class

Sharpe was deserving, but you still have to wonder if Baughan and especially, Tyrer, were hung out to dry to ensure his election? I hope I am wrong because I really felt the voters would bring in Baughan but these young voters probably arent going to elect someone they havent seen or researched? It...

Re: Saquon Barkley This Year

If the Eagles win the SB, it will be considered the greatest free agent signing in NFL history. I still think Davis in 1998 has the advantage though, because he followed up a great 1997 season and SB MVP into a 2000 yard repeat championship. Those two seasons, put him into the HOF ... How would Bar...

Re: Will Now Be The Time For Jim Tyrer?

Whats your take on Ray Lewis, SixtiesFan? Do you feel he should have been elected to the HOF? I felt--and still feel--he was an accomplice to murder but got full legal representation and private investigators from the Ravens. His buddies got away with it in self defense but do we really know what h...

Super Bowl 59 Talk

A three peat. Remarkable that a team is this close to getting it done. Sucks that's it's the Chiefs from my perspective, but they've been seemingly invincible in the Mahomes era. As much as the Eagles defense has looked stellar most of the season, and Barkley is an elite talent...I just think the Ch...

If Justin Tucker is found out to be a true dirtbag is his HOF chances over?

Personally I think he's the best kicker I've ever seen even across eras. But obviously recent developments have complicated things. I'm already going to assume it's not going to end up going well for him given the amount of women that have come forward, and apparently this was a thing that had been ...

Re: Why is Steve Wisniewski seemingly stonewalled for the HOF?

Steve Wisniewski made eight Pro Bowls teams, was 1st Team All-Pro twice, and 2nd Team All-Pro six times in 13 years and missed only two games. Why can't he make a breakthrough??? Bringing this back up because now-former PFHOF Raiders voter Frank Cooney recently organized a Wisniewski round table wi...

Re: Another 'NFL Throwback' from YouTube - EVERY SUPER BOWL RANKED

I guess if I am judging Super Bowl-winning teams against each other, I need more historical context than "they won the Super Bowl that year!". Since I am posting unpopular opinions, I'll add one more. The best defenses I've seen over the years...the 70's Steelers, the 85 Bears, the 91 Eag...
