How Delacour got 5 more votes than Spector I don't understand. Not that Delacour doesn't deserve to be in but

Spector averaged 20.8 pass deflections per season for the 9 seasons he played. (highest in the league)
Delacour averaged 17.6 pass deflections per season for the 10 seasons he played. (6th highest)

Spector averaged 3.45 interceptions per season for 9 seasons. (5th highest)
Delacour averaged 3.5 interceptions per season for 10 seasons. (4th highest)

funny you mention that...

The fact that Westfield and Delacour were not unanimous decisions is criminal.

i read all the discussions but nobody was able to convince me delacour should be in but not the others i had rated at a similar level. i didnt want to vote in that many, so i didnt vote him in. it is kinda funny that i scuppered my own chances of having a unanimous first ballot HOFer though lol.

i have no idea how westfield wasnt unanimous though.

Tuck is yet another case of recency and user bias imo.

arguable. if we take the view that the outlaws offensive line was artificially strengthened during that time due to multis, then Tuck's rivals were unfairly handicapped by having to face unfairly augmented opposition that he did not face.

later, he was still good, but not outstanding. i had him as a borderline HOFer with that question hanging over the decision... were his best seasons better due to unfair circumstances? and i think its fair to say they were. i was not convinced to vote otherwise. some people may have voted otherwise due to user bias, but im not sure that was the case for the majority. i remember the discussions, i thought it was mostly a balanced debate, imo

I'm sad that Eric Kennedy didn't get any recognition from the committee. He had five 1000+ yard receiving seasons and was a top 2-3 receiver in S5, S7, and S8. He also barely missed the top 5 in S9 (by only 2 yards) and that was with YKW moving to a running scheme. He was also named co-MVP in S5. Maybe he doesn't deserve in be IN the HoF, but the fact that he didn't get a single vote struck me as very odd. Maybe it's just the perception. I think people only remember Kennedy for the S5 season breakout season and forget that he was a really consistent WR. It's sad to see a receiver with 1100+ TPE that stayed active his whole career get lumped in with guys that were mostly IA. I don't like to come across as salty and I'm not upset, but I definitely thought he was worthy of being at least a few votes.

Tbf, that S5 season and the accolades that came with it are thanks to a glitch in the sim that gives RBs lined up at WR an absurd number of catches. 12.7 YPC is dreadful for a WR.

TPE level and active status hardly matters, it's about the players career, not the user.

then why isnt Jayce Tuck in?

Yates will slowly lose votes after getting stuck in the middle till he dies.
