Criminal that he is not in the HOF It will really suck when Charles Woodson, that he's tied with on the interception list, gets in in the next couple of years. Link to post Share on other sites

|High School Harry| 3,162 Posted June 7, 2020 Report Share Posted June 7, 2020 Never forget his technique of taking a guy's legs out from behind and flipping him on his face. Great player, great guy and his omission from the Hall of Fame is a disgrace. R.I.P. Rattler Link to post Share on other sites

Jamie_B 3,443 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 yeah how you are 5th all time in INTs and not in the hall is criminal. RIP Link to post Share on other sites
UncleEarl 798 Posted June 8, 2020 Report Share Posted June 8, 2020 Tied for 5th in interceptions all time and hit like this! The combination of playing on teams that didn't have a lot of success and playing in a small media market have kept Riley and Anderson out of the HoF.

|High School Harry| 3,162 Posted June 14, 2020 Report Share Posted June 14, 2020 “Kenny Riley represents what the Hall of Fame is all about, in my opinion … I think Kenny’s stats merit that. I definitely do. Look at how many games, how many years that he played. The productivity he exhibited. The leadership that he exhibited. Not many play cornerback for 10 years and you have to average five a year to even get to 50 and it’s hard enough to average two a year. Kenny to a certain extent and me definitely, when I played teams ran the ball 60 to 65 percent of the time. Pound, pound, pound, play-action. Kenny overlapped that era a little bit. Now they run the ball 35 percent of the time and pass, pass, pass.” ~ Dick LeBeau Link to post Share on other sites
