well he would have almost 10,000 rushing yards, 3,500 recieving yards,
450+ receptions & 110+ total tds so I don't think it'd be too far of a stretch, but it would be his
7th season as a pro cuz last season was suprisingly enough his 5th season in the league.
well, if he retired today....yes today, LT is a first ballot, imo.

Boldin isnt' even the best wideout on his team, no way. Crumpler <if you can't be nice...>. Portis, nope. James No. Heap????? McNabb No. Ward No. Freeney no way.
I quit. This is rediculous.
Well i deff think portis has a fighting chance.....3 out of his first 4 seasons he has gained over 1500 yards...and the one he didnt still he has 1315....not bad...if he stays healthy i do not see a reason as to why he should not get in first ballot!!!

Staying healthy is a big if with RB's. Currently, James is ahead of Portis in my book and I don't view James as a first ballot guy right now.

I understand he was one of the most fluid rbs, but how did he get in with those stats? sympathy? atleast with lynn swann he had 4 rings to light his way into the HOF despite having high level stats.

When his peers talk about his career just about every single one of them says he was the best player they ever saw. He must have made a serious impression to get in with a limited body of work.
One of the problems that we have is that there aren't many highlights of Sayers.
It doesn't bother me that Swann made it in. It bothers me that Stallworth got in. There is no way that Stallworth should be in over Monk. What's next? Alvin Harper? The Steel Curtain era is overated in my book. Hell, if the refs had enough security at the stadium, the imaculate reception would have been overuled and there goes a ring.

Refering to the Imaculate Recpetion.....
I doubt you were there to see it live and I have never seen video evidence that would suggest he didn't actually catch it before it hit the ground. Why then would you suggest that he didn't catch it?
