Is Issac Bruce in the hall?




He was 10x the player that Lynn was.



I guess people like Lynn Swann for artistic reasons?


They say his catching ability and body control was so "graceful":ld:



I remember how the media had me thinking he was a sports god, but once I decided to do some research on him, his stats had me:shaq2:.



He ain't even seeing obscure dudes like Rob Moore and Keenan Mccardell

Dog before 1978, DB's were allowed to basically mug WRs all the way down field.
You can't compare WRs from that era to the modern passing era.

Hey I said its debatable with Swann.

I see why they put him in tho. He played for the most dominant team in the history of the NFL.
Them other dudes besides Pearson, Branch and Carmichael had no impact on the history of the league. The story of the league can be told without mentioning those other WRs

You can't speak on the history of the league without mentioning Lynn Swann.
