Re: Now That Monk Is In...

Why does no one ever say Jim Lachey (sp), was he not one of the best for a long time?

Injuries really hurt Lachey's career. When he was healthy though, to this day I think he was the best LT I ever saw. When he was on, nobody could beat him.

I think I remember hearing that LT only beat Jim Lachey once for a sack in all their meetings. Though admittedly, LT was on the decline when Lachey started to become dominant.

Longetivity might be the one thing standing in Lachey's way for entrance to the Hall.

Bostic was a scrapper and an overachiever. Probably not Hall material.

Thanks Buster, that was great!! The picture in the front cover of his ex-wife tearing the picture of his cover picture, should have been replaced with one of her burning his jock!!

Re: Now That Monk Is In...

Our next HOFer has to be a Hog - either Grimm or Jacoby. Frankly, I'm surprised that Grimm gets so much more attention than Jacoby since Grimm didn't have as long a period of excellence due to injuries. I'm pretty sure that of our Super Bowl wins, Grimm only started in the first, while Jacoby started in all three.

I think Russ has the momentum to go next. I think once he is in it will be a while before another Hog makes it in. The voters might see him as representing all the Hogs.

Skinsfan69 said that Chris Hanberger is a no. How can nine Pro Bowls in a thirteen year career be a solid no?

The Case for Gary Clark VS Lynn Swann

LS: 4 SB
GC: 2 SB

LS: 336 rec 5400 yards 16.3 Avg 51 TD's 8 years in the nfl
GC 699 rec 10800 yards 15.5 Avg 65 TD's 11 years

LS: 1 season w/ over 60 catches (61 catches was his highest)
GC: 7 seasons w/ over 60 catches, one w/ 59 catches

LS: 3 Probowls
GC: 4 Probowls

Could someone tell me why Gary Clark doesn't get a look for the HOF?

GC VS John Stallworth

JS: 4 sb's
JS: 537 rec 8700 yards 16.2 avg 63 TDS in 14 years in the nfl
JS: 4 Probowls

So, Gary Clark puts up better #'s in 4 less years than Stallworth.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Clark was every bit of a huge player with the Skins dynasty of the 80's. A true game-breaking threat, and the 'highlight' guy the voters seem to look for. Reed and Carter will probably make it in before him, but Clark has to be thrown into the ring. Thanks for the research, by the way.

Somebody send this to Peter King!

Re: Now That Monk Is In...

Jacoby & Grimm . Joe T. would have made it had J. Gibbs been our coach in 78 and installed that offence during Theismann's prime . Clark has the numbers . For you young guys in here , the WR's of today will always put up much larger #'s than the wr's of the 70's . Most Wr's had 40- 60 receptions per year , now 6th rd picks catch 90 in there rookie year . C Taylor and P. Warfield at times had less than 50 recp's in a year .

I'll post a poll in a couple of days once the Spags and Fassel poll has gotten some "airtime" on our home page. But for now, just share your thoughts here
Statistically, Hanburger has a strong case. However, in terms of a player that dominated his position, I think Joe Jacoby should be a lock. The only player that was his equal or maybe slightly better was Anthony Munoz, who I believe got in his first eligible year. If Jacoby doesn't go in, then what other Left Tackle is deserving? I can't think of one. He was the best. And, the O-Line was easily the Redskins most dominant unit. Not having Jacoby or Grimm in the hall would be like not having anyone from the Steelers D-Line of the 70s in. The Hogs should be represented.
