Back then concussions weren't a 'thing' but it's pretty obvious that's why he couldn't do anything for a while He got concussed some, but him trying to play through a broken thumb was what really did him in for the Rams. (and IIRC that was why he always played with gloves on for the rest of his career after that) He didn't even play that badly for the Giants either; he took a shitload of sacks but they were pretty firmly in contention for a playoff berth before Eli got put in and tanked the rest of their year.

HOF voters have a stick up their asses about WRs, more or less. Art Monk had every receiving record in history, three SB rings when he retired, and WASN'T a complete douchebag. He still waited forever to get in because he was a quiet dude who didn't play their media game. I'd guess TO waits 10+ years to get in. And it's bullshit, because him and Moss are 2A/2B all time.

Given that he was the best possession receiver of his time before Rice came into the league, I disagree. That's beside the point though. The main thing I was getting at is that Hall voters are generally a bunch of petty shitbags who have a track record of keeping deserving players out of the hall for small slights - no matter if you're a nice person like Monk was, or loud and demonstrative like TO was during his prime years. It's why Ken Stabler didn't get elected until after he died and also why a whole retinue of deserving players remain out of the hall.
