Should Terell Davis be a Hall of famer one day?

Question

John Elway would not have a superbowl if it wasn't for this guy.

Even though he had a short career because of injury he is only one of 5 running backs to ever rush for over 2,000 yards in a season. Plus winning back to back SB's

Why should he? why not?

Answer 1

hard to say,,he had elway for a quarterback,so teams had to watch for him,he had a weak division to play in as far as stopping the run. sure he had 2000 yard season,but he had 2 more games to play in than OJ did. there is no standards to get in the hall,but since only 5 can go in a year,he has to really stand out

Answer 2

I don't see it, he was a bad m**o while he lasted, but you need a longer career to make the hall in my humble opinion.

Answer 3

I think the fact that Denver was able to take any guy off the street (m. anderson, Olandis Gary, Droughns, Portis, et al) and create 1500 yard rushers out of them takes away a little luster from TDavis' accomplishments.  

As a result you can't say he had a worse line than Emmitt.

Answer 4

Third best RB of the 90s (behind Emmit Smith and Barry Sanders)... yeah he's getting in

Answer 5

NO

Answer 6

He all ready made the hall of fame. I don't know what for though.  

Answer 7

I don't know that he will due to the fact that he only played 7 seasons and the numbers don't really compare to Emmit in the 90's.

Answer 8

thats true, and he was one of my favorite players for a few years, but he only played 7 seasons. and a couple were not even full seasons.

he had great stats in the games and seasons he played but i think he needed a couple more years of some solid numbers to get in, because all GOOD running backs have a couple stand-out years but only the greats can stay consistent

and as for 90's RBs:

1 barry sanders

2 emmit smith

3 or 4 terrell davis

(hardly any great 90's RBs compared to these days and the 80's though)

90's emmit smith 14,000 yds 130 tds

90's terrell davis 8000 yds 60 tds

its not even close
