Is Terrell Davis a HOFer?
TD was absolutely dominant when he was playing. It's really a shame that the guy had to cut his career short because of such a strange medical condition. He is the reason why Elway has to 2 SB rings. That's no disrespect to Elway, but it's the truth.
In college, me and my buddies who were avid sports fans would argue about this sometimes. Davis was unstoppable and a truly great player, but his career was cut short. Does someone who was this great deserve to be in the Hall of Fame even though his career was very short? Link to stats: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrell_Davis (yea yea wiki's all I could find with playoffs included) |

Re: Is Terrell Davis a HOFer?
Everyone who plays behind the Denver O-line was pretty much dominant. His top flight period was way too short. Compare him to the moden day HOFers.
Payton Sanders Thomas Dorsett Dickerson Allen Campbell Simpson I know Smith will be in soon as he's eligible. I don't think he compares well to these guys. 3 amazing seasons behind a dominant o-line does not equal HOF. |

Re: Is Terrell Davis a HOFer?
He's definitely in as well. Faulk as well if you want to get down to it.
I doubt anyone thinks Priest Holmes is in. I don't think Terrell deserves a spot. |

Re: Is Terrell Davis a HOFer?
TD was an awesome player, but someone with that short of a career, and that short of a period of being a top player in the league will not get in.

Re: Is Terrell Davis a HOFer?
I think the more marginal guys are, are Tiki Barber HOFers? How bout Corey Dillon (14th all time rushing), Eddie George.
Do you guys think LT2 will be in? I think odds he will be in. I think SA doesn't make it unless he returns to normal. How bout Edge? I think most people are clear cut with TD. His career is just way too short. |

[/ QUOTE ] I'm confident that in actuality TD will not get the HOF. I meant, if you had a vote, would you put him in? Sorry, maybe I should've been more specific in the OP. |

To me, no way TD should be in. He was awesome, but not for very long at all. I think Tiki is probably more deeserving but I don't think he should get in either. He's an interesting discussion too, I think. |

[/ QUOTE ] I've got no qualms with Curtis Martin, but his peak was not as high as Davis. He was more of a grinder if you will and played very well for a long period of time. But if I need a guy for one season or one game I'm taking TD everytime. |
