Nfl's leading receiver-future hall of famer?

[Chi_archie]

the player many love to hate

Hines Ward


at the age of 33, he is off to his best start ever.


is this guy gonna end up in Canton when he retires?

[dwaechte]

Will be a tough call I think. I looked at his stats recently and was amazed by the consistency and longevity.

[Chi_archie]

if he retired tonight I'd vote him in. the intangibles put him over the top

[element1286]

Wouldn't put him in, the consistency is nice, but he was never a top 5 receiver in the NFL. His inability to stretch the field vertically is a knock against him as well.

i'd bet 5K he will be in the hall of fame if i didn't have to wait so long to find out

[reno cool]

A real standout. Between him an Palumalo (u know who I mean) they have the two most impressive players in the league. Two bad they only cover the spread when I don't bet on them...bitches.

I didn't think he would be close, but after looking at his stats and if he plays 3 or more years and continues this production he just might. No one loves playing or plays harder than Hines. Not sure he would get in the first year he's eligible.

not sure that its ever been his job to stretch the field. He has always been a possession/slot receiver that gets YAC.


I think if he ends up with 12-14k yards receiving, 85 TD's and close to 1k receptions there is no way he'll get left out of the Hall.

as it is, he already near the top 10 all time in that category and will be close to top ten in td's and yards for a receiver if he stays healthy

Super Bowl wins get him in

not to mention super bowl mvp
