Based solely on historical center precedent, unlikely.
Taking into account the popularity and availability of all22 film, his media presence, personality, on field play, accolades, SB, along with what appears to be a fairly soft retiring class, I would say fairly likely ~80%.

Re: Pro Football Hall of Fame, Class of 2024 talk
I am happy for the players but still couldnt believe the senior and coach rejections. If Gonzalez got in first ballot, why couldnt Gates? Witten wont either, so Gronk should be the next first ballot tight end. I also thought Gates would be 1st ballot, but did look into it a bit before hand. The bes...

Re: Modern Candidates HOF Preliminary List
Brian - based on a talk for 2 interview, the closing comments made it sound like Willie made the top 10 and missed the HOF ... but it could have been interpreted as a hypothetical example to make a point. I lean that it was a slight slip up. Rewing - Vinatieri and Lechler are on the horizon. Seems l...

Re: Next rule change
Changing fumbling into the endzone resulting in a turnover seems like a possible change. It doesn't come up very frequently, but it's another way to take pity on offenses. An XFL kickoff rule could potentially result in better starting field position for offenses. Stronger enforcement of DPI/holding...

Re: Time's running out for Webb, Cunningham, McDonald and others.
Bryan, I am curious what 16 modern players you come up with that are all better than the rejects you highlighted. To me it looks like you would end up with classes below the normal 5 inductees, but don't want to get too ahead of myself with projections. (Andre Johnson, Tim McDonald, Leslie O'neal, P...

Re: Centers
Centers definitely are a tricky one. They are on of the most under represented positions in the HOF and there is a bit of a growing sentiment towards their general importance. For the up and coming potential HOF'rs there's probably enough data that you could add penalties per 16 as an extra but fair...

Re: Your Top 10 TEs of all-time
I get the pushback for large WR nestling themselves into the TE role and knocking off more complete players. Acknowledging it, oh well. I don't feel too strongly about the list or order. 1. Gronk 2. Gonzalez 3. Kelce 4. Mackey 5. Winslow 6. Casper 7. Sharpe 8. Ditka 9. Gates 10. Newsome HM Jackie Sm...

HOF Weeb Ewbank and Jim Trimble film collection links died
I had these two sites saved and would sometimes go back and watch the games. Looking at my notes it still worked as of March 2nd of this year. The links used to be: https://livestream.com/profootballhof/events/8048086 and https://livestream.com/profootballhof/events/8124251 , both are now dead. I as...

Re: www.footballperspective.com
I was told they had too much information/size for their current web host and were looking into getting their own server to solve the issue. It was up for a few days before going down again. Not sure where they are on whatever solution is needed.

Re: Best Starting Defense - all time
This is what I've ended up with for the time being. It's always a bit strange to trot out a list of players not knowing what/who is on the field. I'd put LT at right edge until an offense showed he couldn't hold up then Bruce Smith and try LT at wlb: LDE Reggie White LDT Joe Greene RDT Aaron Donald ...
