Re: Fletcher to HOF?
Yes HOF. IMO. Probably the most underrated LB I've seen. Any time you see an athlete able to compete at his level at his age with athletes in their primes is because he really is that great. Not a really good LB - a great LB HOF.

Re: Fletcher to HOF?
The guy leads the league or top 5 in tackles nearly every year in recent memory...
IMO it would be one.of the biggest snubs of all time

Re: Fletcher to HOF?
Also, among active players (all positions) he second in the league in consecutive starts -- and he plays LINEBACKER! Think of all the tackles he made, the blocks he had to shed, the collisions, the players he concussed--there is a lot of contact at that position. Just to last that long, especially at LB is special. He not only lasted, he thriving --the man led the league in tackles last year at age 83! HOF.

Re: Fletcher to HOF?
If they look at him fairly and don't try to look for something negative (such as pro bowls) just to discount him, I don't see how he doesn't make it.
Most think he's a great lb but even that is underrating him, this guy is one of the best tacklers, ilb players, and defensive leaders of all time in my opinion. |

Re: Fletcher to HOF?
I think Fletcher is one of those good but never great players. He has a solid career but I don't think he's a HOF

I don't see him making it. He has a tremendous body of work, but was never the best at his position.
No first team all pros, no defensive mvps, not enough probowls. He's an amazing player that was always among the best, but that doesn't get you in the hall. |
