The Senator Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 As long as it’s for his special teams play, not as a broadcaster. . 6 8 1

Codyny13 Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 In the hall, but not on the radio. He’s the worst.
Irv Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 He was a great player but makes me want to gouge my ears out.
BuffaloBillies Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Football Career = Hall of Fame Broadcasting Career = Hall of Lame Why he's not in = Hall of Blame If he doesn't get in = Hall of Shame 1 1 2

Cant blame him for doing it though to milk that Bills legend status. I’m sure he’s ok, but not set for life like some of the others from that era and almost all of them today that last a few seasons Edited April 30, 2019 by Over 29 years of fanhood
hondo in seattle Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Tasker was special on special teams. But it's... special teams - only a few plays a game. I'd love to see him get in because he was a great Bill but I'm not convinced he deserves it. 2
BuffaloBill Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Was an awesome football player. His production as a receiver was simply surprising. 1
PromoTheRobot Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 For his special teams play? Yes! For his broadcasting career? Ummmmm, no.

Which is exactly the blueprint marginal HOF candidates use to stay in the public eye. Don't underestimate the power of familiarity when it comes to a popularity contest... 1
TroutDog Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 He was fearless, a hard hitter, elusive when kick returning, sure handed, and a leader on teams. In short, he changed the course of many games during the glory years, either lengthening the field for the opposition or shortening it for the Bills. Once he got his chance to receive, Kelly knew when he threw to him, that he was going to make the tough catches. He should go in for teams alone.
MJS Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 He is painful to listen to sometimes, but he's sincere and does his best. I think it would be cool if he got in to the hall as a special teamer. It's the consensus around the league that he's the best there ever was. He went to a boat load of pro bowls, which is the biggest case in his favor. I'm just not sure if he ever will.

I'd love to see him get in because he was a great Bill but I'm not convinced he deserves it. Just so you know, how he played those "only a few plays a game" changed the outcome of many games for the SB teams. Coaches like Parcells have often said that he was the only special teams guy that they ever game planned for. Simply put the Bills do not make it to 4 SBs in a row without Steve Tasker. 1
skibum Posted April 30, 2019 Posted April 30, 2019 Can we please stop with this? It's ridiculous. I love the guy, but the Bills' Wall of Fame is as far as it goes for Tasker. 1 1

Pay attention to the other players they've selected for their team for the ages. Everyone on that list is either a current or future HOFer https://www.profootballweekly.com/2018/08/29/team-for-the-ages-steve-tasker/aoj8sc8/
