Re: Was Gary Clark our Best WR from 85-92?
Clark was awesome. That TD catch he had in the 2nd half of the Monday night halloween game was DOPE!!! That being said, we had both Monk and Clark and they complimented each other very well. Kinda like Duper and Clayton. Very few teams today with a one-two punch like that.

Re: Was Gary Clark our Best WR from 85-92?
Clark was explosive and very underrated if you ask me. Even if he did suffer through a case of the drops now and then.
When you look at his numbers he was just 1 catch away from 700 and a few yards away from 11,000. He's still in the top 20 all-time for yardage, and he's still in the top 30 all-time for receptions. A strong case could be made for him being in the Hall some day, but I don't think he'll make it, just my feeling on the matter. |

Re: Was Gary Clark our Best WR from 85-92?
if i need a wr to make a game winning catch it would be monk. Clark as good as he was alway dropped to many passes. Monk rarely drop any. The one that Monk drop that stays in my mind was the Monday night game against the rams when williams was the QB in 87. I cant think of any other ones that he drop. Clark drop a hell alot more but still was a great WR.

Re: Was Gary Clark our Best WR from 85-92?
Well, in a perfect world lots of Redskins from the glory years would be in the Hall. Joe Jacoby and Russ Grimm should be in.
Jim Lachey I'm not so sure about. He was easily among the top 2 or 3 left tackles in the game when he played, but the longetivity wasn't really there with him. It's hard enough for O-linemen to get in -- since there aren't any real stats to go by, they had to have played solidly for 10+ years. If I were dictator of the Hall of Fame, the following would be shoe-ins: Art Monk Gary Clark Darrell Green Joe Theismann Jacoby Grimm Bostic Monte Coleman Don Warren Dave Butz Dexter Manley Mark Mosley Close, but not quite: Ricky Sanders (very, very close - in fact, someone could convince me) Jim Lachey Mark May Neal Olkewicz Alvin Walton Charles Mann Earnest Byner Clint Didier |

Re: Was Gary Clark our Best WR from 85-92?
You know what gets me is that someone like Monk can't just go out week after week and help his team sustain drives by moving the chains and just catching everything that was thrown to him. Oh and by the way help his team win some Super Bowls and at the time when he played break a freak'in record for receptions. Doing this with EXTREME class and honor to the franchise. Something that the "play maker" would know nothing about. All of those people who are unworthy of casting a hall of fame vote for Monk can just eat a dick! Thanks Mr. Monk for the great memories and all that you did for our beloved team.
