NFL HOF skips Brian Mitchell again.

Devin Hester in the NFL HOF

Does this give hope to B Mitch?

That '06 season pretty much sealed the deal for DH. Chi Town got the best of us in that NFC Championship. The b.s. those Bears fans said to Nola fans, playing Rock you like a Hurricane in Soldier Field, Chicago is right up there with ATL, Mike Evans and Cam Newton on my s*(& list, forever.

As for #1BM in HOF, absolutely.

It definitely should... The special teams excuse should be gone

[Cajunchuck]

If Devon Hester is in HOF than in my opinion Brian Mitchell should definitely be in HOF. BM was much more consistent throughout his career than Hester who was more of a flashy player and below average wide receiver.

[BrockMeaux]

Mitchell should already be in. Hester got in because he scored some touchdowns, including the one in the Super Bowl. Every year that goes by, Mitchell's chances get smaller because he continues to fade from memory. That they put Hester in FIRST BALLOT over Antonio Gates is wild.

[Turbine]

Yardage, the NFL benchmark.

The fact that Jerry Rice had to play an extra year to get pass Brian Mitchell, and that Mitchell is still #2 all-time, all-purpose should say it all.

Personally, the UL player I want to see in the HOF is Charles "Peanut Punch" Tillman.
