Those people are stupid.

John Elway was a HOFer.

Terrell Davis was a good RB, but I can find you 4 or 5 RBs in the NFL right now that are as good as he was.

Both TD and Priest now have left tackles in the HOF.

Coincidence?

In short, Elway needed the scheme to win.

I also think if you're talking Holmes and TD, don't you have to mention Shaun Alexander in the conversation too?

you can make this argument for virtually every SB winner... you don't win SBs without great talent and schemes... no one player didnt have this type of support when winning it all...

at the end of the day, people just tip their hat to the players accomplishments... doing anything else is simply hating...

Hate the Donkeys all you want.
I hate them.

But let's be honest.

Elway is one of the all time greats.

Vinnie Testatverde has more career passing yards than Joe Montana.

He deserves to be in the Hall.

True. But after the fact, name me one player that benefitted more from his scheme than Terrell Davis did. A scheme, mind you, that is no longer employed as it was when Denver used it.

He was no scrub, but the guy just isn't a HoF'er, at least not yet. He didn't have the longevity or the numbers. Give it twenty or thirty years, maybe he'll get in on one of those old timer ballots.
