He needs a ring or some more sacks. If not he'll be waiting for years.

He should have gotten a ring or two in that span of years. He missed 2009 by two years.

Agreed.

LC Greenwood’s family is still awaiting the call and he has multiple SB rings.

Cam will need to pick up the pace before he hangs em up.

They were discussing SB rings and the relevance to the HOF last week on NFL Radio. Two of those in the discussion (Vic Carruci and Alex Marvez) were HOF voters and they said being on a SB winning team isn't as important as some may think. It's not something stressed when going over qualifications. Sure, many, if not most, HOF members have been associated with a championship team, but much of that comes from longevity and not personal achievement. They said if it came down to two players with almost identical qualifications with one having played on a SB winning team then it may then be considered. Just look at Jim Kelly and Dan Marino as two examples they gave.

Re: Cam Jordan Hall of Fame?

my .02- Definitely not first ballot, Has to contend with the big market bias, (yes it exist) and that wow factor or glaring stat that most have. Winning Super Bowls is a big deal, but it's not all that. Just means the player was part of a well rounded team, which offers up the old question...was the player that great? or was the player just a cog in a well oiled machine. AKA LC Greenwood, Trent Dilfer. Something like a top five in sacks, Pro Bowl/All-Pro, maybe Deep playoff run where he puts the team on his shoulders via key plays, sacks, TFL in the next couple of seasons would probably cement his eventual ticket. Just may take awhile, while adding a little jam to his toast.

LC was that good in those trenches. His numbers are what they are. A GREAT player.

If stats (sacks, tfl, hurries) were recorded when he entered the league, there is no telling where his totals may have ended. His post-season stats are among the best that's ever lined up at DE.

But as Rez eluded to earlier in a previous post, Cam is going to have to pick up the pace quite a bit, otherwise, he'll have to wait (see Klecko, Jim Marshall & Gastineau) a long time before he gets the call.

It will help if he gets into and flourishes in media after his career. He sat in as an analyst on ESPN one day and did a really good job.
