Re: Bylaws Rules on taking PFRA position
Probably doesn't have to be too 'wordy' and just a simple, "we officially go by the standards of the PFHOF, CBA and Total Football" or something along those lines. Someone can word it better but really only needs to be a straightforward 1-2 sentence thing. Agree. If it does happen, concis...

Re: Bits of NFL history you have learned from watching old g
a handful of things . . . Kenny Washington was the first- African-American to play QB in the modern T. And Willie Thrower drops to #2. Unless you consider Bernie Custis in the CFL. Played in the T (chronological order): Washington (1946 preseason and in relief of an "injured" Waterfield) ...

Re: Class Of 2023 PFHOF
Some observations... - Klecko seems like an "inner circle" HOVG to me. Again, this concept has been discussed before, did his career somehow become "greater" in the last 25 years? Gary Myers--his first year on senior committee--Klecko was his pet project... and he was successful...

Re: 2023 Modern-Era Finalists
My uneducated guess as to what will happen: Andre Johnson, Wide Receiver – 2003-2014 Houston Texans, 2015 Indianapolis Colts, 2016 Tennessee Titans Darrelle Revis, Cornerback – 2007-2012 New York Jets, 2013 Tampa Bay Buccaneers, 2014 New England Patriots, 2015-16 New York Jets, 2017 Kansas City Chie...

Re: Bills-Bengals game “no contest”
They were not going to push it a week because they have their flag football game the week between the conference championships and the Super Bowl.sluggermatt15 wrote: I don't see why it would have been so bad to push the start of the playoffs back one week and eliminate the "bye" week before the Super Bowl.

Re: So, now it was Doomsday that changed the game?
The game has changed so much that it is hard to keep up with who caused all the changes Depends on who you ask, I guess Link https://www.dmagazine.com/publications/d-magazine/1987/august/is-there-any-wayto-explain-footballs-most-confusing-convoluted-intellectually-taxing-perhaps-no-longer-so-great-...

Re: Three Hall of Fame Cornerbacks on the same team
1960 Detroit Lions, with Yale Lary, Night Train Lane and Dick LeBeau, although for my money LeBeau shouldn't be in the Hall . Too bad Lane didn't join them when Jack Christiansen was still with the team; that would've been a serious trio, those two plus Lary. I dunno---62 picks in a 14-year career,...

Re: 28 Semifinalists
I would not be happy seeing Hester make it in before Tasker, but with Tasker being a senior now, his shot is pretty much gone at this point. I am sure you're right. Not sure Hester makes it this year--likely not with 2 first-ballot guys possible--Hester was in top 10--so you'd think those five guys...

Re: 28 Semifinalists
Personally, I would make all these players wait awhile before election except Ellard but the voters may feel there is too much of a backlog to ignore ... I think that there is definitely emphasis to remove the "logjam" at WR, which means someone is getting in. If I had to guess, I would s...
