I’m back again with some more HOF content for you, are you getting a sense for my favorite topic yet? This is my All-Time team made up of players who’ve been snubbed for the Hall. The list of course won’t include any Hall of Famers, current players, recent retirees who aren’t up yet, or players who are up but will definitely be in eventually (Ex: DeMarcus Ware or Torry Holt). It will however, include players who are still on the main ballot but clearly being looked over and I expect to hit the senior ballot (Ex: Shaun Alexander, We’ll get to him). There’s so many players to go through with this list but I’ll be narrowing it to 13 starters on offense and defense, and of course K, P, ST, Returner.

It seems as though the Centennial Class was the turning point on many issues HOF voters had struggled with: Players who didn’t win but had the stats and accolades, Players with shortened careers, and the never ending Special Teamer debate. Recently, the voters have gotten it right and the current HOF voting platform of 1 contributor, 1 coach, 1 senior nominee and 5 modern era nominees seems to be the a good mixture to breakdown the ridiculous waiting list for the greatest fraternity in sports. Albeit, I’d prefer 1 coach/contributor and 2 senior nominees. That being said, let’s dive into what I expect to happen in the next 5 years based on the new precedent the hall has now set: The Class of 2023: Senior (1): -Kenny Anderson Quarterback Cinncinati Bengals (1971-1986) 4 Pro Bowls, 1 All-Pro, 1981 MVP, 1981 OPOY, 1981 CPOY, an...
