But he himself said in his Hall speech that Sterling needed to be in, and that the selection committee needed to look into it. That was almost 15 years ago, and nothing. It's getting frustrating watching other players with similar or lesser impact on the game and with even SHORTER careers getting in (looking at you, Tony Boselli and Terrell Davis)... I've actually done research on this topic and have verifiable stats and facts to back this up, it is a TRAVESTY he's not in yet. I will not rest until he is.

Cris Dishman was super underrated. He is known for giving up the HE DID WHAT play on Monday Night in 2000. But before that he was a solid corner. He played 12 years in the NFL and in 7 of them, he had over 4 interceptions. He was also very durable as well as he played in 170 career games which is a lot for a cornerback. He had 43 Career interceptions and brought a fierce edge early in his career with the Oilers and brought veteran leadership later in his career with the Vikings, Chiefs, and Redskins. Despite all of this, he only made two pro bowls and two all pro teams and in my opinion he deserved more accomplishments than that.

Simeon Rice was such an important piece on that 2002 Bucs defense. He didn't get there until 2001. As good as those Bucs defenses were before Rice, he gave them a legitimate pass rushing threat on the edge. His presence made an elite defense into one of the best defenses of all time. Simeon Rice should be in the hall of fame and i'll always stand by that.

This compilation shows just how much greatness on sundays gets overlooked, mostly because of short careers. A great player has 4 years of dominance, 2 decent years, a year marred by injury, and a decline year. A HOF player does more. I still think Terrel Davis deserved HOF because his 3 year peak is absurd. His running won 97 SB w 157 yards vs 123 passing by elway. Then he dominated 1998 with 2K yards and ran over the postseason. We never see a single RB power a SB run, rushing more then passing in multiple postseason wins. Even in the 70's the peak run to win superbowls era....its committees. Dont say emmit, look it up, Aikman passed for more then he ran in the postseason games and reg season.

And man oh man I loved Trent Green. From 2002 to 2005 he was a top 5 QB. If he was put in better situations earlier, and didn't get hurt he could have thrived for a while longer. At least folks got to see could do in 2000 when he filled in for Warner, and later with the Chiefs. Sure they stacked a bunch of talent there. Regardless he was very productive.

At least 5 TDs with Kordell, Ben, Charlie Batch, Kent Graham, and Tommy Maddox all in single seasons. He's also the only 1k reception WR from the AFC in the Super Bowl era not in the Hall.

Hines Ward was a menace as a college quarterback turned wideout at Georgia, so he became a Steelers legend. Charlie Garner was a beast as a powerful back with different teams. We almost forgot about Stephen Davis when he played for the Redskins. We all loved Keenan McCardell in a Jaguars uniform dominating the wideout position with Jimmy Smith and played along with Mark Brunell. Earnest Byner was a great player during his era as a pure running back who loved to run the ball. We didn’t know about Anthony Carter with the Vikings. Keith Jackson was a pass-catching machine as a Philadelphia Eagles. James Wilder was an all-time leading rushing as a Buccaneers, so nobody could really tackle him. We forgot how dominant Patrick Kerney was as a pass rusher machine and a sack machine. Donald Driver was a dominant wideout who came out of Alcorn State and played his whole career with the Packers, so he won a Super Bowl with the team. Clay Matthews has a bloodline of brothers and his son who also played in the league. Derrick Mason was a very successful wideout as a pass-catching machine. Shaun Alexander was a very talented running back who can’t nobody wanna tackle because of how good he was as a player. Trent Green played with Dick Vermeil as a Chiefs and Rams, so he got hurt by injuries and Kurt Warner took over from there. Ed McCaffrey has a bloodline of his sons becoming football players in their own right. Bryan Cox Sr. was a dominant linebacker in his own right as a tackling machine. Brian Westbrook is beloved in Philadelphia for his skills as a receiving back and running the ball as well, so he was an outstanding player during his time with the Eagles.🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈🏈

LB Al Smith: One of the many talented players Houston had during the late 80's/early 90's. Fierce hitter that made plays. C Doug Smith: Played for the Rams through the 80's. Great C that should probably be in the HOF. C Tom Nalen: I know this guy should be in the HOF. Fabulous C that executed Shanahan's ZBS flawlessly. FB Tom Rathman: The 49ers cheat code on offense in the backfield was Tom Rathman, and Roger Craig in the mid to late 80's. Great FB. TE Frank Wycheck: Titans TE who was a load, but made his fair share of plays in the passing game. Awesome blocker. S Mike Minter: Quality enforcer that played his entire career with the Panthers. Great tackler for his size. LB Keith Bullock: Titans linebacker that was stellar in coverage. C Ray Donaldson: Longtime Colts C who was a mammoth gatekeeper. Played his final two years in Dallas where he won a SB.

Charlie Garner runs just like he's a clone of Tony Dorsett. Uncanny similarity in slashing running style and elite acceleration. Might be related might not. But wow

@@jessecolvett6391 The only difference with Garner vs Dorsett is NEXT GEAR Olympic speed plus the thing when Tony sees nothing but open field he'd tend to hold the ball in one hand ala Walter Payton in his prime. That must've been a thing back then when those two badasses played in the pros.

I love this series. Most of these guys probably aren’t HOF, but they were very good and had elite stretches throughout their career, however the longevity just wasn’t there for most. That’s why this is the perfect title for this series, because some of us forget or just don’t think about them anymore

I think he would have top 10 career receiving stats, if not, top 3. Having Brett Favre helps significantly. Sterling would definitely have a Super Bowl ring and could have given the Packers a shot at a 90s dynasty. I also think we would not have seen the ridiculous Antonio Freeman catch since he was drafted to replace Sterling.
