26CornerBlitz Posted February 6, 2016 Author Posted February 6, 2016 Predicting the Class of 2016 Kurt Warner and Marvin Harrison are both finalists for the Hall of Fame's Class of 2016 -- but Elliot Harrison says one will have to wait a little longer. Check out the full prediction of Saturday night's class.
vincec Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Coryell Favre Jacoby Owens Warner The rest wait.
Manther Posted February 6, 2016 Posted February 6, 2016 Coryell Favre Jacoby Owens Warner The rest wait. Wowsers, bold. Not saying it isn't going to be correct, but, bold!
YoloinOhio Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 TO didn't make it @terrellowens Unfortunately I did not make it. CONGRATS to the 2016 HOF CLASS. Thanks to ALL MY FANS for ur unwavering love & support. #ONLYGODCANJUDGEME @profootballtalk Report: Eddie DeBartolo elected to Hall of Fame
YoloinOhio Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Jim Irsay says Marvin Harrison in HOF, believes Tony Dungy is too
vincec Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 If Tony Dungy is in the hall and Don Coryell is not then that's a crime.
YoloinOhio Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 2016 HOF class: Edward DeBartolo, Kevin Greene, Marvin Harrison, Brett Favre, Ken Stabler, Orlando Pace, Dick Stanfel, Tony Dungy.

major Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 The NFL hof consists mainly of good players- not great ones. MLB takes only the greats in Cooperstown
Mark Vader Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 DeBartolo was overdue, and Harrison should have been a 1st time ballot. Favre was obvious, and Pace makes a lot of sense. Dungy could have waited longer. Maybe a lot longer. Greene?! Really?! I'm sorry, I know he has a high number of sacks, I just don't think he was Hall of Fame worthy. Warner & Owens not making it in, is ridiculous.
Chandler#81 Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Yeah, Snake! I just wish it wasn't posthumous..
Big Turk Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 The NFL hof consists mainly of good players- not great ones. MLB takes only the greats in Cooperstown Except for one of the greatest in Pete Rose. I don't give a fvck about his gambling. The HOF is for what they accomplished on the field. If you are going to keep Rose out then Ty Cobb should have never gotten in either.. DeBartolo was overdue, and Harrison should have been a 1st time ballot. Favre was obvious, and Pace makes a lot of sense. Dungy could have waited longer. Maybe a lot longer. Greene?! Really?! I'm sorry, I know he has a high number of sacks, I just don't think he was Hall of Fame worthy. Warner & Owens not making it in, is ridiculous. Greene was a very good player but I never remember thinking he was a dominant force...
GunnerBill Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Agree with what has been said. Coryell and TO over Harrison and Dungy for me. I can understand why Warner didn't make it this year with a QB who was a sure fire first ballot guy.... but his wait should end in 2017. I understand him not being forst ballot, I understand them not putting him in the same year as Favre but he should wait no longer. Kurt Warner is a HoF QB and he should go in next year.
hondo in seattle Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 Dungy is the only HC in NFL history to make the playoffs 10 years in a row. Neither Tom Landry, John Madden, Chuck Noll, Bill Parcells, Don Shula, Bill Walsh, nor any other HOF coach accomplished that. And he did it with two different teams - in both cases taking losing teams and transforming them into perennial winners. Dungy's record as a leader deserves HOF recognition. But Coryell changed football forever. His "Air Coryell" - later packaged as the "West Coast offense" - dramatically changed offensive and, indirectly, defensive football. All the nickel and dime defenses of today are a reaction to Coryell innovations. Anyone who knows NFL history knows Coryell deserves a bust in the HOF not so much for his W-L record but for his impact on the game. Yet thinking back to Major's point - that the HOF if full of good but not great players - I really think the NFL needs to limit the number of folks who get inducted each year. I worry that 8 is already too many.
KD in CA Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 DeBartolo was overdue, and Harrison should have been a 1st time ballot. Favre was obvious, and Pace makes a lot of sense. Dungy could have waited longer. Maybe a lot longer. Greene?! Really?! I'm sorry, I know he has a high number of sacks, I just don't think he was Hall of Fame worthy. Warner & Owens not making it in, is ridiculous. That was my first thought on Dungy, but it occurred to me how much the NFL loves this guy. He's a good guy ambassador for the league, first black coach win Super Bowl and whatever else, etc. In retrospect that one should have been obvious. Agreed about Greene. He seems like a perfect HOVG candidate to me.
Mr. WEO Posted February 7, 2016 Posted February 7, 2016 (edited) 2016 HOF class: Edward DeBartolo, Kevin Greene, Marvin Harrison, Brett Favre, Ken Stabler, Orlando Pace, Dick Stanfel, Tony Dungy. What an lame group in total, minus Favre and Stabler (obvious choices). Bartolo?? The guy is a convicted felon who was suspended by the NFL for involvement in a gaming scheme. Harrison ahead of TO? That's a laugh. Harrison spent his career with Manning. TO's most prolific connection was with Jeff Garcia--and TO had far more TDs. Harrison likely shot at least one person. Tony Dungy....forget ahead of Coryell, how about AT ALL? What did Dungy get in for? Squandering talented rosters in Indy to the tune of the worst playoff coaching record ever? ONE SB appearance. 9-10 playoff record (with what will be 5 HOF nominees on offense in Indy). His teams were often ill prepared in the playoffs and he had 4 "one and dones" in 7 appearances with Indy. Over an actual coach and innovator like Coryell? A bad joke. Crazy.
