He was the Ray Guy of place kickers , but even player longer.


Jan Stenerud is not in...I think Morten Anderson is clearly the all-time kicker.


Should kickers be allowed in

Yes. Stenerud should be also. He transformed the kicking game. It's interesting how the different leagues determine who is in their Hall. You have to be Adam Vinatieri will be, right?

absolutely

Anderson is one of the best kickers of alllll time - even if he did miss the game winner in 1998 against the Falcons

Anderson will be a HOFer along with Adam Vinateri...where would New England be without those 2 clutch kicks against St Louis and Carolina?

You may be thinking about Gary Anderson. But I still agree, Morten Anderson should be in the Hall.

Gary Anderson was the kicker who missed for the Vikings that year. Morten Anderson was the kicker who won the game for the Falcons in OT to send them to the Superbowl. Both are great kickers, amongst the best during their time.

To me - Until the induct Ray Guy NO KICKER AT ALL should be let into the HOF - and that includes Adam V (who will get in)

I am a DIEHARD Broncos' fan who loathes the Raiders - even before these bastards knocked me out my suicide pool last week - but for Guy NOT to be in the HOF is a FLAT OUT JOKE and UNTIL he gets in NO OTHER KICKER should be admitted to Canton

Jan Stenerud should be in the HOF for his throwing skills alone.

NO punter should or ever will be in the HOF.....Vinnateri's greatest kick was the snowjob vs the Raiders.
