Maddog69 Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 it would be awesome if they both went in together
CodeMonkey Posted February 2, 2012 Posted February 2, 2012 I can't imagine Tasker ever making it in. For Andre I am torn. He is a Bill so I'd like to see him make it. But is he really a "hall of famer"? I can't talk myself into answering yes.

I can't talk myself into answering yes. Why not? Ending his career with the second most receptions in NFL history isn't HOF-worthy? Being told that he's one of the best receivers in NFL history by Jerry Rice means he isn't HOF-worthy? Having the most receptions in post-season history isn't HOF-worthy? (I think I read this one's true, but haven't confirmed) He's definitely HOF worthy (especially if Irvin is in). (and yes, I'm biased, but I still think he deserves it )

Woody Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 TWITTER: @Andre_Reed83Here is to making the day great!!! Decided to take the Red-eye out tonight to Indy............ To don a yellow jacket Sunday?
Max997 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 For some reason the Hall is tough on WR's but he should get in and actually should be in already his play helped coin the phrase run after catch along with Jerry Rice Reed's numbers are hall worthy and would be even better if the Bills of the 90's were more selfish about their stats like Emmit Smith was Thurman could have led the league in rushing more then once but gave way to Davis a lot and even sat at the end of the season a few times when he could have easily padded his stats like some players would
bills44 Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 I think that Andre deserves to be in the HOF, but I just don't think it's going to be this year.
MarkyMannn Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Reed should be in HOF. Tough competition in Chris Carter and Tim Brown. Tasker should be in too. First stud special teamer
tennesseeboy Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 if he's going to get there he should get it soon. He'll be an afterthought in a few years. I'm not sure he is HOF material, but lots of folks think he is.
UConn James Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 (edited) Is there a time limit on # of years or chances for consideration? When does any chance get kicked to the Seniors Committee (at which point he'd have to wait 15-20 or more years)? Edited February 3, 2012 by UConn James
KRC Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 Is there a time limit on # of years or chances for consideration? When does any chance get kicked to the Seniors Committee (at which point he'd have to wait 15-20 or more years)? 25 years of retirement for seniors committee. The number of times considered has no impact.
Woody Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 My opinion is he should not be penalized because the game changed so much the last bunch of years...he played when he did, not in the years thereafter. When he retired he was what, 2nd or 3rd in catches all-time? That should count for something. When he played, his numbers where right there with the best of 'em. Get r dun voters...put Andre Reed in the Hall. He deserves it.
ajzepp Posted February 3, 2012 Posted February 3, 2012 As crappy as this team has played over the last 11 seasons, over that time we've been represented very well in terms of the Hall of Fame. I would be thrilled if Andre got the call this year...
Best Player Available Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Peter King said today "he thinks" Andre will get in tomorrow. Its about time. It would be nice to have that happen this weekend.
CardinalScotts Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 you have to put Reeds numbers when he retired the game has changed so much. His numbers when he retired are hall of fame worthy. Tasker in my opinion is THE best special teams player of all time, but too many guys won't vote a kicker- punter or special teams player into hall of fame based on they are only on the field 6-7 snaps a game- maybe.
AthensThunder Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 The way I see it is that as time goes on and the passing game becomes bighger and bigger,nobody remembers that Reed was actually second in all time recieving right behind Jerry Rice for a number of years. Hell yes he deserves it.
Mr_Blizzard Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Reed should get in. Tasker deserves to be in. PTR
Mini Max Anderson Fan Posted February 4, 2012 Posted February 4, 2012 Very nervous, I so hope he makes it. Very deserving imho, he has the stats and the heart and belongs with Jim in the hall (referring to qb/receiver combo).
