Post by: MarqHusker on October 14, 2025, 11:59:28 PM: capping my own posting, just throwing out some names that I suspect should squarely be here. Munoz, Randy White, Archie, Ozzie Newsome? another set of guys that roll over into 80s, or back to 60s, like Tatum, like Lott, Marcus Allen, even Hugh Green, but he could've bailed on '80 and still been HOFer. another ridiculous RB room which will be left off here. Pruitt, Washington, Dorsett, White, Sims, Payton.

Munoz
College only. He was hurt 3 out of 4 years.
Let's go by what they actually did on the field. Let's not just throw in a bunch of consensus guys. Have some fun with it.

Post by: SFBadger96 on October 15, 2025, 12:52:07 PM: The 1970s were a running decade, but there are some good QBs: Jim Plunkett, though most of his playing time in college was in the 60s, Joe Theissman and Joe Montana for the Irish, Dan Fouts for Oregon, Jim McMahon for BYU, but I think the choice here--based on college output--should be...
