He'll get in, and i still find it amusing that one of the greatest clutch plays in Super Bowl history is so LARGELY overshadowed by The Tackle in the same game. I get it. Sort of...i mean The Tackle was a game saver no doubt, but to break a tie with a 73 yard TD with 2 min left is legendary IMO.

Ike Bruce better make in this year. I'm tired of him being snubbed. He had great success before the GSOT and was a big part of those years too. He caught the game-winning catch in the Super Bowl. He had a great career YPC, second to Jerry Rice in catches when he retired and was a great blocker. It is time he gets his recognition as one of the greatest in NFL history.

Fuck Adam Rank. He's earned nothing but scorn from me for reasons I refuse to discuss, and his opinion on Bruce is nothing but bilge, considering that Bruce had amazing numbers without Holt at his side.

TO not getting in for years was a problem for Ike. But now that he's out of the way I think Ike is a sure thing, just a matter of when. Really hope it's this year though, so I'm with you there.

Ive been a Rams fan since the late 80s. And I hate 29 of those teams. But I will never speak like other teams or players cant have accomplished players/coaches or how other teams or players suck because they arent a Ram (not implying you have done that). If people want to be homers, so be it but Ive seen enough non factual shit around here in my short time to know people say stuff with literal hate or dislike fueling it instead of facts. Ike will get it. Maybe not this year or others but it will happen. Dont get the outrage over it.
the door to leave is the same one you used to walk in

Lol at complaining about Jimmy Johnson getting in. Is this board full of nothing but homers?

You've been here a short time alright. And yet you feel the latitude to act like you know this board or use the Homer tag toward us in a negative finger wag?

You may want to lose the attitude and get to know the lay of the land. Or just find another board that will be impressed by your "realist" takes. This ain't it.

Yeah, definitely need to edit the title.
Anyone being named to the 2020 HOF class right now has NOTHING to do with Bruce, or any of the HOF eligible group.
They are naming 15 guys to the HOF thru special voting process in order to have 20 guys enter the hall this year.
The Bruce/Holt class of 5 will be named prior to the SB
PLEASE edit this title

Sounds reasonable. I edited the title and added a little poll.;)

Aye, Johny Unitas and Roman Gabriel were the first QB's to really string together a whole career of positive TD to INT ratios. That in a age where PI was an afterthought at best. Definitely underrated, a Championship would have had Gabriel in the HOF for sure!

I hope so because this is as good a chance as he has ever had since he became eligible. Bruce would become the first Rams receiver to go into the Hall in 50 years, since Tom Fears.
