And fewer yards.

How many SB rings does Largent have?

And this 'wait a few years' notion annoys the fuck out of me.

Suppose Carter has an ailing relative that really wants to see him enshrined?

Sterling Sharpe hasn't made it in either and, even though his career was cut short, I think he deserves it.

Probably a lot of people, this should have been a slam dunk.

Take away those years and he's rather mediocre.

So no, you can't say that about him.

Too lazy to think of snarky comments for your other two examples.

10. Shula set the record for wins with Marino.

Dolphins won more games than any team during Marinos run.

Saying Parcells won because of one guy---Taylor, was pretty fucking stupid.

Douche.

No one gives a shit who won the most games during the regular season.

Take Taylor off those Giants teams and how many Super Bowls do they win?

The same number that Marino won.

Actually I didn't.

I skipped the Giants / Bills one to protest Gulf War I.
