";s:4:"text";s:6762:"When Tony Boseli was healthy he was the best tackle in the game by far.Bryant Young was a beast a few less sacks than Sapp but, but way more run stuffs through double and triple coverage.Agreed, but a guy named Bruschi has a resume rivaling Nick Buonoconti.Rodney Harrison has to be in as well, long before overrated Polamalu or LeRoy Butler.Butler isnt overrated. He has more all purpose yards than Bruce, Wayne or Holt. He did it all – interceptions, sacks, tackles, forced fumbles, fumble recoveries. On potential and a strong lobbying campaign from who knows where I suppose.Butler was the best safety on that list. Atwater deserves to be in the HOF too. Charles Woodson isn’t eligible yet, as I think his first regular ballot appearance will be in 2020 or 2021.If what Kevin Mawae said at his induction last August about Zach Thomas didn’t get Zack nominated I don’t know what will?Butler was a stopper. But you could argue a lot of others for the other two spots.Bizzaro world in which Lynch and Butler are held in higher regard than Woodson.It would be a travesty if Leroy Butler or John Lynch get in before Steve Atwater. I bet most modern day players never heard of him. Bruschi? Reggie Wayne was WR2 for most of his career.Zach was great for alot of years but he played at the same time as Ray Lewis and Brian Urlacher and they got all the middle linebacker media hypeI don’t care who you are, if you don’t think Sam Mills deserves to be in then you don’t know the game of American football. Undersized second level tackle machines to be sure but not HoF and I’m sorry but a great speech and tragic ending doesn’t equal HoF. Terrell Owens taught me that off the field stuff doesn’t matter.It’s a travesty that Darren Woodson is not on this list, and that he hasn’t been selected yet. You have no idea how much your continual votes mean.
Hall of Famer? Related Pages. or. The Steelers fans still miss himAtwater should have been in a long time ago. Both have better stats than PolamaluI seriously think that Canton is turning into the NBA HoF. Not Now. See more of Sportsradio 105.7FM The FAN on Facebook.
Honored to be a Pro Football Hall of Fame nominee! Athlete. He was easily a top five middle linebacker in his prime. Log In. He should have been in already. In addition to that, if you compare his stats people would see that Butler had more All-Pro nominations than Atwater, Lynch, Harrison, or D. Woodson (same # as Polamalu). Butler, Donald Driver, Nick Collins and Ryan Longwell made the ballot as former Packers who played all or the majority of their NFL careers in Green Bay. Listen at work or while you surf.LeRoy Butler, co-host of The Big Show on the flagship station 105.7 FM The FAN in Milwaukee, is one of a handful of former Packers to make the Pro Football Hall of Fame's 2020 fan vote ballot. Butler had more interceptions than all of them. One of the all-time best Special Teams players, and does not get the respect he deserves. Rod Woodson is already in the HOF. I understand the pick. Listen to Nate Newton or Mark Stepnoski on the subject. The Pro Football Hall of Fame announced the modern-era finalists for the Class of 2020 on Thursday night.Seven of the 15 finalists made the list for the first time.The inclusion of first-year eligible players Troy Polamalu and Reggie Wayne was expected. Plus, he should get in for inventing the Lambeau Leap alone.The HOF has no meaning for me.
As Captain of that defence he set the tone. Love seeing Sam Mills on here. FAN VOTE goes a long way in getting our nominations heard and I know I wouldn't be where I am without the BEST FANS IN THE WORLD!!
News & Media Website. Most definitely.
He was the key to Fritz Shumer’s defense in Green Bay.Their 2 Super Bowls seasons he was the teams best defender… on a D that featured REGGIE WHITE…“Butler was the best safety on that list.
THANK YOU! Along with Wayne Martin one of my favorite all time Saints from the pre-Payton era.Going to be some really good debates with this class! Good player? Create New Account. Faneca wrote the book for all pulling guards.I have been a Patriots season ticket holder for 40+ years and never was all that impressed with Richard Seymour. Do better. Sam Mills or Zach Thomas didn’t strike me as great hall of fame types during their playing days. An original list of 122 nominees was paired to 25 semifinalists in November.The 2020 Modern-Era Player Finalists with their positions, years and teams:LeRoy Butler is horribly underrated for how good he was for so long.This is a great group!!
