Is Randy Moss a Hall of Famer right now?

Career Stats.

Say Randy Moss gets run over by a train tomorrow morning: Should he be elected to the Hall? Would he be?


The case for inclusion: Is arguably the greatest deep treat in the history of the NFL. From his very first game as a rookie through the next six seasons, he was usually the best player on the field. In eight playoff games, he's averaged 90 yards and 1.1 TDs. 5th all-time on the career Receiving TDs list. More than any single player, carried a flawed 1998 Vikings team to a 15-1 record as a rookie. Was able to coast on raw talent and still be dominant for more than half a decade.


The case for exclusion: Did, in fact, coast on raw talent instead of working to become a meticulous route runner or trying hard on every play. Quite possibly never threw a real block on a running play. Hampered by injuries and bad offenses, has now looked very human for a third of his career. Significant character issues on and off the field. Once hit a meter maid with his car ... intentionally. Just 21st all-time on the career Receiving Yards list, behind many WRs who have no chance in hell of being selected for the Hall.
