Davis didn't "last" either. **** him, he doesn't and won't get in.

They defaulted on bonuses to highly paid players they otherwise could not have kept. Then they manipulated the books to deceive the NFL. That's cheating. Last edited by WhiteWhale; 08-05-2012 at 08:33 AM.. |

Nobody who played in that scheme ever dominated like Davis did. Crediting the scheme is stupid. Lots of Qb's succeed in the WCO as well... that doesn't minimize their impact. The NFL has a lot to do with luck. Landing with the right team and the right system can make or break a career. Davis is the only player that fans seem to penalize in their mind because of the scheme. |

If Terrell Davis were a Chief everyone on here would be kissing his ass. Dude was great for 3 seasons.

But at the end of the day, SBs are won by QBs. Its true today, it was true when the Donkeys won, it was true in '66. I don't give a rat's ass about this debate between Davis and Holmes, even though Holmes is probably my favorite offensive Chief ever, because QBs win SBs. Davis was a shooting star. Nothing more.

Does Elway get a ring without Davis? And the most amazing thing is: They were able to win despite Greg Robinson. |

Sure but with Davis its a little different. He won 2 rings. Compare not only his regular season stats but his playoff stats to other hof running backs. The guy was great when it counted. |

Whatever. Denver gained zero competitive advantage by deferring payments to a later date. They were 13 point underdogs in SB32 and could have been underdogs in SB33 if the Vikings made it to the SB.

There were a ton of other Bronco players who got two rings, so as far as I'm concerned, that's not even relevant. As someone mentioned in the other thread, Gonzo may make it in without even winning a playoff game.

If he gets in, it will probably be because of his performance in big (read: playoff) games. In 8 playoff games, he had 143 ypg, 1.5 TDs per game, and got a SB MVP. He was a huge factor in his team winning 7 of those 8 games.
For those that wnat to compare TD and Priest in every way: In 4 playoff games, Priest had 55 ypg, 0.5 TDs per game and was a minimal factor in the 3 games he won.

That's not the point. Can you really say without Davis Denver still wins those super bowls? Look at his playoff stats. He was great in big games. |
