H2o Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Tasker is clearly NOT one of the NFL's top 100 players of all time, despite some people's love affair with the guy. Let's be realistic here. 1

Michael Irvin shouted out post game on Thursday night football, when they announced that the special teams finalists would be revealed the following day, "that better include Steve Tasker!"

At least not yet I know, I was just playing What with everyone second-guessing the Edmunds pick last year when he was having significant growing pains

Gugny Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Perhaps someday, whilst making his speech as he's inducted into the National Radio Hall of Fame, he can look back upon this snub and say, "in the end ... I'm the winner." 1
row_33 Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 The top 100 includes players from before 1990? That would make it even more exclusive.
Phil The Thrill Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 I think the NFL must be penalizing Tasker for his horrible acting in those West Herr commercials! 1
purple haze Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 12 hours ago, row_33 said: you ever agreed with much that Irvin has said? Actually, he makes good points sometimes like anyone else. He didn't say Tasker should be one of the 100. He Inferred that Tasker should be on the list of Special Teamers being considered. Seeing as Tasker is considered one of the best Special Teams players ever, and they are including Special Teams players on the 100, sounds reasonable to me.

I wouldn't make that argument because rings matter, but this is just insane. He's EASILY in the top 100. Almost feel like you may be kidding. F@€¥ Rodgers I’m glad he’s not on that list

machine gun kelly Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 He’s probably the best non kicker ST player ever, but that doesn’t mean he’s going to get into the top 100 of all time.

Matt_In_NH Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 Does someone actually think he belongs on this list?

RE: Tasker---whoever said tasker wasnt that good is nuts.Tasker was the greatest ST coverage player of all time.There was none better. that being said--he is not in the top 100 players.There isnt room for players like that. 45 minutes ago, Shooter McGavin said: He’s in the NFL’s top 100 color commentators because there’s only about 10 of them He and Fouts and Dierdorf were great players......... 1

Tasker got the splash plays as the Gunner on kick coverage but the more valuable ST player then was Mark Like.....
NoHuddleKelly12 Posted December 7, 2019 Posted December 7, 2019 17 hours ago, Gugny said: Let them make a list of Top 100 Special Team Players and he can be on that. There's probably 1000 players better than Tasker in the history of the NFL. He was great at what he did, but let's not pretend he was a game changer. Come on. If special teams mean nothing in a game’s overall trajectory, then your take would be correct. Otherwise, as one of the best to have played ST’s, including getting rules changed around him, his accolades are richly deserved. Side note, don’t forget how he seamlessly came on board as a WR at Jim’s behest...just an all around great footballer
