Re: Bobby Wagner - 200 tackles?
Yeah, I've noticed that linebackers on bad teams are usually really high stat compilers, There are definitely multiple ways in which tackles alone can be unindicative of the player's ability, but obviously we do not have to worry ourselves about that with Wagner, we know what he Is. He has a 20 tack...

Re: Damon Allen vs. Marcus Allen
Damon Allen was a superb athlete and an excellent QB whose abilities were perfectly suited to the CFL. He set career records because of his almost Brady-like longevity. He is absolutely a deserving hall of famer but few, if any, consider him one of the QBs on the CFL’s Mount Rushmore. Interesting t...

Bobby Wagner - 200 tackles?
BWags has been around forever and is already a first-ballot future HOFer, but he is somehow having his greatest season when the Seattle defense is otherwise a dumpster fire. He needs 48 tackles over his final four games to reach 200 total tackles, which hasn't happened in over 25 years, and the nece...

Re: Damon Allen vs. Marcus Allen
Canadian Football Hall of Fame: https://cfhof.ca/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canadian_Football_Hall_of_Fame Thanks. I guess Damon has his honors, then. As to whether Damon was better than Marcus, I would argue he accomplished more, but beyond that is getting into a game of what-ifs; could a runn...

Re: Damon Allen vs. Marcus Allen
This is a really interesting topic with broad implications. Marcus has openly stated that he wants his brother in Canton, and given the stats, it's hard to argue with his point unless the CFL has its own Hall of Fame, which I'm not certain whether it does. Damon is top 3 in league history in both ru...

Re: My HOVG Watch List!
Mal Kutner seems viable, I'll throw him on. He's a little less than Box as a receiver but gets extra for playing defense. Jim David as well. For some of these guys, I'd be looking for more stats just to get a better sense of what exactly I'm voting for. So for the time, I can go back to the 40s for ...

My HOVG Watch List!
I've been planning on putting one of these out for a while now, so here's a list of guys I would consider supporting for the HOVG.

Re: Todd Gurley and Le'veon Bell
Holmes seems like one of the most obvious HOVG players of the 21st century. He's not really getting considered for Canton, but his career is impossible to ignore.

Re: Early NFL "MVPs"
Yes, it's all in 1927: 120 carries, 508 yards, 2 TD 38 receptions, 541 yards, 1 TD 44 returns, 620 yards 7 defensive INTs All his recorded games are complete, but 5-6 are unrecorded. A very fascinating season, I'd bet the over on 2000 total yards. Why the lack of touchdowns, though? 3 TDs in 2000 ya...
