Former Saints on the Hall of Fame list for 2017
 
I'm starting to get really sick of seeing Morten and Sam Mills as semi finalists. If either had played for the Cowboys,Giants,Steelers or Patriots they'd have been in a long time ago. If the likes of Donavan McNabb,Drew Bledsoe,Steve McNair(and im a massive fan of his,loved watching him),Herschel Walker,Terrell Davis,Shaun Alexander i wont be a happy man

Davis had 3 great season,one good season and was injured for the rest of his career. Since when did 7,000 yards make you a HOF running back. No doubt with a clean bill of health he would have been one of the greatest all time and possibly had a chance to put up huge numbers but thats ifs and buts,the fact he he didn't do it. The same can be said for Alexander who had 5 great seasons. Sam Mills went to was a Pro Bowler and All Pro a combined 9 times(as many as they had great season combined).

The fact the record point scorer in league history is on the outside looking is a disgrace too.


The byelaws say up to 8 can go in

Who is going in for you
