Why isn't he ever in the discussion of great defensive players?

BALCO

>>74145090
I know different leagues but hell Bonds is even working in the MLB now.

>>74145037
Romo will never get in. All they gotta do is show him hocking a noogie on JJ Stokes at the selection meeting and its a done deal.

>>74145090
HOF voters are supposed to ignore any off the field shit. Its why Charles Haley and Michael Irvin are able to get in. Only conduct on the field matters.

All those steel curtain players were on roids and they're in the hall.

>>74145131
Romo had so many classic moments on the field with the bantz

>>74145131
>HOF voters are supposed to ignore any off the field shit.
TO proves otherwise.

>>74145193
he will get in

>>74145193
His suspension when he was with the Eagles is whats holding him back. Andy Reid benched him during his prime, which is giving enough fuel for those on the fence to not vote for him.

All of that is just noise. The bottom line is the committee has a hard time of being objective and many people and entire positions suffer because of it.

>>74145193
T.O. is a bitch that deserves to wait his turn to get in. If he weren't a diva he would have been first ballot.

This thread is good. Keep posting about your type of football.

>>74145037
He's usually up there in the dirtiest players lists, and he's from an era when dirty = good.

Anyway, he's also from the same era as Bruce Smith and Reggie White, of course he's going to be overshadowed.

>>74145341
impact player, has four superb owl rings....

>>74145037
he works out at my gym

>>74145385
you ever talk to him?

>>74145350
well yeah, but White and Smith have 19 combined first team all pros, Romanowski has 0; that's the stuff that gets you in the HoF when you aren't a quarterback

He will punch you, be careful.

This is what happend to the last nigga that crossed him

>>74145396
I get that, but im not even talking about HOF, he literally never gets brought up, hell you have people bringing up Brian Dawkins more

>>74145391
He offered to let me use the weights he was using once, but that's it. I didn't want to bother him. He's polite to everyone though, and still completely jacked.

>>74145486
u should get a pic or some shit

>>74145410
Well, I don't know. Truly great safeties are really hard to come by, last gen we had Reed, Polamalu and Dawkins. Great Linebackers come in greater numbers, and players like Ray Lewis, LT, Jack Lambert, Mike Singletary, Dick Butkus and Jack Ham get (deservingly) more praise.

He's one of those players who despite having a great run with the Broncos, is destined to be just that, one of the best Broncos. Similar to London Fletcher, kinda tragic.

>>74145501
I've thought about it but I feel cooler if I act like it's no big deal. I'll ask him something benign like when they're letting him into the hall and report back.

>>74145535
Atwater gets passed over too

>>74145592
Atwater is from another decade, the Rod Woodson era.

Always thought he was HoF worthy, but safeties have a hard time getting in.

>>74145410
He doesn't have a single all pro. Idk what agenda you're trying to push, but to remember outside of your own team's fans you have to have at least a couple all pros. Shit man, willfork has 1 1st all pro and 3 2nd and he probably still won't make the hall, or it will take a very long time.

>>74145635
not trying to push an agenda just trying to have a convo faggot

>>74145651
Well as a patriots fan I can tell you in 10 years no one who isn't a patriots fan is going to have much of any memory of Troy brown, Kevin Faulk, tedy bruschi, or mike vrabel. That's the way it goes.

>>74145682
Id argue Romo was a bigger name then Brown or Faulk and Vrabel, and Bruschi. Although all did have an impact on the team.

>>74145612

Its because they expect Safeties to have played corner at one point and have high INT count. So someone like John Lynch, gets punished for it.

>>74145702

Yes but Bruschi has the sob story.

>>74145760
That is true plus hes still on ESPN isnt he?

>>74145783

Believe so. He's their go to guy for anything Patriots related.

>>74145824
he comes off as a smug prick

>>74145745
A real shame, but I'm sure both Lynch and Dawkins will make it.

My concern is Ed Reed, if he isn't first ballot I'm gonna be sad and mad.

I just realized I can name like 5 NFL players with the last name -kowski and 0 from all other facets of life
But then again, I suppose everyone with the first name Jararashaq'won I can think of comes from the NFL too

>>74145745
But if they had played corners at one point that means they CAN'T get INTs, since 90% of cornerbacks are just WRs that can't catch, and the other 10% are fast black guys that just want to paralyze people legally

>>74145910
It's a common slav suffix, I guess it must be common in some places like NY or MN.

>>74145037
anyone looking for evidence of him being the GOAT just needs to look at the superbowl where the broncos beat the packers

he was flying down the field covering receivers, obliterating double teams to get sacks, basically being a human fucking rocket

yeah he was roided out of his mind but he was good

>>74146049
a lot of players were roided then

>>74145037
Because he was a fucking nut who intentionally injured players, namely breaking Kerry Collins jaw and fucking up his career

>>74145845
>former New England player is smug
No fucking way

Thread last night had people saying Haley wasn't great, I would say Romo was a less impressive player who won't get in the HOF.

>>74145341
Smith and White were DEs, Romo was a pure LB.

>>74145410
Dawkins was fucking amazing, Romanowski is not in the same class.

>>74145845

Bruschi is smug? LMAO fag. Bruschi is a humble as fuck and chill guy. He had a stroke during his playing days and came back the next year. He was playing with his son on the field before a game it was great. He is only "smug" cause tony nigger dungy and other retarded affirmitive action ESPN coons spout bullshit memes all day about how ay ay ron faggot rodgers is better and pats aren't legit, bs, he just says fuck you guys BB will rape you on sunday

>>74147224

he's "smug" because all ESPN does is shit talk the pats. he, actually having played in the NFL unlike jemele hill and co, is just like ok niggers

>>74145612

>Rod Woodson

why couldn't i have went to purdue in the late 80s or 90s : /


when i was there the team won like 8 games in 4 years...

>>74147234
>Smith and White were DEs, Romo was a pure LB.
Anon was saying why wasn't he in the discussion of greatest defensive players; not linebackers, and even so >>74145535

I still think he had a great run with the Broncos, but this anon is pretty much right >>74145682

>>74145037
Because he wasn't that great.
It really is that simple.
