the fact he's not in the hall of fame by now is ridiculous

So glad that Torry is on the list. He gets overlooked because Moss, T.O., Chad Johnson, Steve Smith and others got all the attention in the 2000s. Even on his team, Warner and Faulk got the lion’s share of attention. He’s one of the best route runners ever (learned from one of the best ever in Isaac Bruce), and had such soft hands. He rarely dropped a pass

[@koetafrost8047]

Steve Smith on American Dad

And it's crazy because Chad wasn't on the same level as those 5- Owens, Moss, Harrison, Holt and Smith. Ocho was great, but those other 5 were something else.

Torry is not underrated. He's properly rated. There's absolutely 3 guys ahead of him in that era. Randy Moss, Terrell Owens, and Marvin Harrison who I think was the best of the 2000s over Moss and TO. Moss is a good argument, but Harrison was definitely better than TO.

Looking back, how did the Rams only win 1 SB when they had Holt,Warner,Faulk and Bruce

[@Garrett1240]

Adam Vinitari

[@mastick5106]

Kind of a combo of reasons. - In 2000, they lost a 31-28 shootout in the playoffs where they turned the ball over 4 times, three of those leading to points for their opponent (2 TDs and 1 FG). - In 2001, they ran up against Belichick, who knew how to slow down top offenses (as D coordinator with the Giants in 1990 his game plan mostly shut down the Bills' K-Gun attack in SB XXV), plus the most clutch kicker in the NFL. There was this kid named Brady that was pretty good too. - In 2002 and 2003 Warner was injured, missing most games and playing poorly when he was in. They made the playoffs without him in 2003 but lost in OT in the first round. So they really only had 3 chances with that whole crew mostly healthy, and had three playoff appearances, two Super Bowl appearances, and one championship. Not shabby.

[@Footballfansblue]

They lost in the second round in 2003, not the first. They had a first round bye, so it was their first game but not the first round of the playoffs.

[@mastick5106]

I stand corrected.

[@clashofthehornsofficialytu2082]

Pats and the Panthers got us at our best.

[@AndrewWarrenPatriotsfan]

Torry Holt is very underrated. People talk about Isaac Bruce and Marshall Faulk when they mentioned the greatest show on turf. But to me they don't mentioned Torry Holt nearly enough. I would make a case that he was the best player in the Greatest Show on Turf era and in the hall of fame too.

[@jarvasedundy1]

The Rams o-line in my opinion was the best during that era. Orlaano Pace goes under the radar alot he was a machine lol. And so does Tom Nutten, Andy McCollum, Adam Timmerman. Timmerman should have made more Pro Bowls during that era, although he was a Pro Bowl alternate few times and made an All-Pro team. They always gave Warner time in the pocket to go through all his reads to reading the defense why he was a 2x MVP. And they always created big holes for Faulk that made him a 3x OPOY and 1x MVP.

[@dmvbawse4265]

I would say holt was better than smith. Smith has him by 7 tds and a little over 1k in yardage but played 4 more years. Holt played 11 and bounced. But the man had 12660 yards and 74 tds in 10 years with the rams. Had another 722 in 15 games with the jags before calling it a day. Growing up he was always open and did it with different qbs. No Faulk, Warner, Issac Bruce.

@@slipamo4309 And I'm not sure how he ended up in that way. Coming off an MVP season in 01 and just started to play terrible. He went from the best player in the NFL from 99-01, to averaged up until he signed with the Cardinals. That's why I don't understand how he was voted to the NFL top 100 Greatest Players In NFL History list they made on here lol. He played 12 seasons 98-09 and his best were 99-01 and 08 and 09.

[@DarkSideMaceWindu]

@@jarvasedundy1 He had multiple hand injuries that made it difficult for him to grip the ball that severely hampered his play. His tendency to hold on to the ball forever and getting hit caused him to fumble at a ridiculous pace and never really allowed his injuries to heal. Getting benched with the Giants, going to Arizona suffering non hand injuries in his first season then getting benched for Leinart in his second season is honestly what saved him career. It gave his hand the proper time to completed heal.

can someone explain to me how lynn swann is in the hall of fame and he isnt?

[@user-Jamie218]

yeah no rhyme or reason to it, their rationale would be that they value SB wins a lot so that’s why there’s so many 70s Steelers players in so Lynn Swann despite lack of stats in that era of less passing yards had some spectacular moments in the playoffs but then why is Andre Johnson from the same era with comparable stats with no SB appearances in over Tory Holt that got to 2 SBs and won one and sharing catches with Isaac Bruce and that were 1A and 1B and either one of them would’ve gotten more yards if they were the clear cut top receivers on their team like Andre Johnson
