Cliff Branch should've been in HOF a long time ago!! This man should've been able to witness this moment in person 😪

[@rockyracoon3233]

Just like Ken Stabler!

[@neneshubby]

Freaking criminal that guys like Bob Hayes and Harold Carmichael got in before Cliff

[@devilcrys3960]

As a Raiders fan, he should have been in a long time ago. But it’s better late than never. Thank you for what you brought to the silver and black Cliff Branch. You deserve this. 🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️🏴‍☠️

[@johnsmith-ln7ni]

i am not sure why the NFL/HOF dont give these players their roses when they are alive... Cliff Branch has always been a HOF... he is Cliff Branch... SAD!!!

[@generic5353]

RIP Cliff. A true Raider Legend

[@jmac4466]

Speed Kills! #21 Clifford!!! My favorite player when I was a kid. Finally!! RIP!

[@robertholmes6906]

Don't forget "Cliff's Corner" !!!

[@rasmele6007]

I met Mr. Branch, it was the year he actually passed. I by chance saw him in a store, he was at a table sponsored by UC Davis med center in Sacramento. I didn't think to approach him right away but I did notice this stately older gentleman wearing a black number 21 Raiders jersey. I wanted to see the name on the back but I couldn't see it so I came closer as I looked at his face I truly began to realize. I came up to the table nobody was there. Was it really him? I said hello to him. He smiled and greeted me. I went ahead and asked, "Are you Cliff Branch?" He smartly replied "Well, I have been for 70 years." We smiled and laughed, we talked about football, the Raiders, the city of Oakland, his former teammates especially Fred Biletnikoff, health, family, life. We stayed for almost 45 minutes or more just chatting like friends. He was a real person. So blessed to have met him that day, and to have a real interaction with an all time great. Thank you Mr. Branch, thank you for being a Raider, and thank you for being a good man.

What great story. Cliff Branch, the best overall wide receiver in NFL history

[@kevinpayton2664]

Congrats to Cliff Branch and the other inductees. Cliff was undoubtedly a great player, one of the fastest players ever. A true Raider

RIP Cliffy he's finally in the HOF! 🏴‍☠️

RIP Cliff Branch. We know you, Al and Madden were all there to watch. I am crying like a baby.

Snake too!

[@christopherunfus8962]

Cliff Branch should have gotten in during his lifetime.

[@v6math]

What a beautiful and thoughtful speech.

[@redmustangredmustang]

It had to take LITERALLY DEATH for Cliff Branch to finally make the hall of fame. The same with Ken Stabler. Cliff should have been in there 20 years ago when he was alive. He was the big part of why the Raiders made and won those 3 Super Bowls. Anyone who played with or against him will tell you that. Yes we are all glad that he's finally in the hall, but it shouldn't have taken Cliff to die for that to happen.

[@angelinochicano4284]

Lester Hayes should be in too 🏴‍☠️

[@rockyracoon3233]

Is it just me, or is the HOF a bit biased against the Raiders?

[@jeremiahrose4681]

Call me a sap, but I teared up, why because this should have happened along time ago so he could have enjoyed it while he was here. I'm sure he's enjoying it in sprit. Like true Raiders fan, you bleed Silver and Black and ever time a Raider goes in is special oh so special. God bless you all.

[@ninjadude17]

Man I was in tears as soon as they unveiled the bust. Along with the entire speech.

[@jgowin66]

You weren't alone. Cliff's sister did an outstanding job. I believe that, as she said, Cliff, along with Al and John were there, "front and center". "Speed kills!" Rest in glory, Cliff !

[@lildan419r2]

This dude is a legend speed kills. r.i.p

[@vzfbaby]

RIP CLIFF FINNALY IN THE HOF!

[@sashasavisha146]

Cliff was something else. #21 in the Silver & Black. Should’ve been enshrined years ago while he was still with us. Kenny Stabler got the ball to him and he should’ve been alive for his and Clifford’s ceremony.

[@SofaKingRaider]

I'm so glad he's finally being recognized but at the same time I'm so angry that it took this long. RN4L 🏴‍☠️

[@andrewballance7249]

Nothing but positives for his entire career. Rings. Cliff Branch the TRUTH. Feel good about this. Love Mark D. P'n'P/jwb

[@tracytrebilcox]

What a wonderful tribute to one of the nicest people in the world. This has truly been your week with your birthday on Monday, your heaven-versary on August 3, the game on Thursday and the induction ceremony yesterday. You are still so missed by those you left behind, and to them, tons of hugs and prayers during this bittersweet time.

[@OldManLuffy]

How tf did it take cliff branch this long? I've been a broncos fan for almost 35 years and I use to see highlights of him absolutely burning guys down the field it's crazy it's taken this long

[@enriquedeltoro227]

Cause he was a Raider back then in the 70s and 80s. NFL more so Pete Rozelle hated Al Davis and the Raiders back then very much. Cause they went against the NFL and did things their way. They’ve always hated us. They did the same thing to Ken Stabler too

[@leifelliottsofficialmusicc8438]

I loved watching Cliff Branch play..He was truly the money man in big plays…Cliff will forever be one of my elite players that the Raiders ever had

[@IsaiahSZN]

Can’t believe it took this long🤦🏽‍♂️

[@spencercorey7046]

I wouldn’t even be a Raiders fan if it weren’t for a chance encounter with him at a wal mart in apple valley, ca when I was a young kid. He took the time to speak with me about sports and school and never wanted anything in return. I still have the picture he signed for me for free after talking with me for damn near an hour. While the raiders have certainly let me down, Cliffs advice has not.

[@penguinrea0088]

God bless you guys Always keep God first

[@johnadkins7512]

God bless cliff branch! Speed kills!

[@TheDreadedRaider]

Speed kills, baby.

[@null_hypothesis]

Cliff Branch was also blessed with a beautiful, supportive family. What a well-spoken, delightful woman.

[@richardmontgomery1749]

As a Raider fan this hurts because he was denied this moment in his lifetime when he should of been in years ago. It's good that he finnaly got in but it took them too long. Let's hope they don't do this to other players who are alive and deserving of enshrinment

[@yourroyalhighness7662]

#21 Speed Kills. SB XI, XV, XVIII Champion Pro Football Hall of Fame How sweet it is.

[@bc6352]

The Raiders were blessed with two hall of fame wide receivers during the 70's. The homerun hitter, Branch and the possession guy, Biletnikoff. And two great tightends. Dave Casper, a powerful blocker and sure handed receiver. Also, Raymond Chester, also an excellent blocker with great hands and speed.

[@tonyvega9252]

Congrats cliff branch well deserved.RN4L

I got to meet Cliff, 2009 randomly at a Raider Image store in Oakland 12/13/09 🙏🏻

[@markblue5375]

Cliff and Freddy were the best !

[@MrLewis-lk8us]

The NFL took way too long to honor and recognize Cliff Branche’s talents and contributions to the NFL. He should’ve been enshrined when he was still here. The original and best deep threat in league history and the #1 post season wide receiver in NFL history even as he competed in Super Bowl XVIII

[@SixTwoHemi]

20 years wayyyyy to late

[@goldenbear8250]

Agreed. A speedster that ran great routes, had great hands, and was at the top of his craft throughout his entire career. The fear of him "going deep" kept the safeties "out of the box" and opened up the game for the rest of the Raider offense.

[@27RAIDERMAN]

Jim Plunkett Lester Hayes Jack Tatum Are next to be in the HOF

[@johnadkins7512]

Of. Course

[@Metal_Vault]

FINALLY! Speed kills, #21!

[@randyhanson4973]

Tampa C2 was invented in the 1974 AFC Championship Game by the Steelers in a effort to stop Cliff Branch. He should have been in the HOF 30 years ago.

[@rdmanzo6691]

Sad to see another Raider great get his recognition, posthumously. Ken Stabler being the other. NFL's feud with Al Davis probably had something to do with Stabler and Branch not getting theirs and Terry Bradshaw and Lynn Swan getting inducted, no questions asked. Branch's numbers were comparable to Swann's. Better late than never, I guess.

I’m not a Raiders fan or a conspiracy theorist, but what do the HOF voters have against the Raiders? Why have so many of their legends had to wait? Branch and Ken Stabler posthumously. They should have been able to make hall of speeches. Ray Guy and Tom Flores when they were old men. All should have been elected decades earlier.
