He's a LOSER TOO.

I must be the only fan who would concider an NFC or AFC championship game a big game. LOL.

Re: People who belong in the Hall Of Fame

I agree with Rickey Jackson and Bo Jackson. Jackson was a great player that we didn't see on TV much, and Bo transcended the game during his short time, much like Gayle Sayers.

I would put Randall Cunningham in, too.

No for Tillman. The reasons given are ridiculous. It's about football, and he was just a guy as a football player. Acknowledge him in some way, but do not induct him.

What the hell are you talking about? Anderson's only "big game" was beating a finesse passing team in the coldest game ever. Granted he did pretty well in those conditions, but Kelly did just as good in his FOUR AFC Championships. Both never got SB rings.

Cunningham, I dunno. Had a great impact on the game that is for sure.

Bo Jackson should probably get in on a Gayle Sayers exception, as should Terrell Davis. No TD, no SB for Elway.

Tillman should at the very least have a portrait hung in the hall, is that a fair compromise in your estimation?

As a football fan and a two time veteran of Afghanistan who was at the same fire base as Tillman(I left just weeks before he was killed) I would love it if they honored him at Canton with a portrait or something. It would probably be enough for me to go visit Canton. But I don't think he should be inducted.

good point

Jim Kelly certainly won more "big games" than Anderson. It's not even close

But isnt Jim Kelly already in the hall of fame? Im not sure comparing Ken Anderson to a HOF QB is much of an argument. Im not saying Anderson does belong in the HOF and Im not saying he doesnt. I also dont think that one game is his whole career. If I remember correctly, I think he led the league in passer rating once or twice.
