James Harrison is going to get into the HOF at some point. He was a four-time all-pro, NFL DPOY, and made arguably the greatest play in Super Bowl history on his 100 yard INT return for a touchdown. You could argue he should have been the SB MVP and that he literally won the game for the Steelers. 84.5 sacks is not too bad, either. For years, Harrison was the most feared defender in the entire league. He also won two championships and was a few plays away from a third.ChrisBabcock wrote:My take on the 5 first year eligibles...
Joe Thomas: a slam dunk this year
Jahri Evans: I think belongs but may have to wait a year or two.
Darelle Revis: Will get in. Possibly this year. But am I the only one who saw about 4 years of greatness and then HoVG level play as he bounced around the league?
Dwight Freeney: I'm on the fence whether he belongs but will eventually be enshrined because... Sacks!
James Harrison: No. Unless he gets credit for having an interesting personality and being in commercials.
Only way I don't see him getting in is if they hold his suspensions and comments towards the league against him.
