comparing colt's wr's marvin harrison and reggie wayne. can't argue that marvin's numbers were better.

Reggie Wayne: 1072 catches / 13,063 yards / 78 TDs; 2nd most catches in postseason history

Marvin Harrison: 1102 catches / 14,580 yards / 128 TDs; NFL record for catches in a Season

Harrison's Best Season: 144 rec / 1722 yards / 11 TDs

Wayne's Best Season: 104 rec / 1510 yards / 10 TDs.

apparently though a lot of people didn't like his attitude.

They both belong in the HOF in my opinion. Harrison made it in 2016, hopefully Wayne joins him in 2024.

Not far from my home in Farmington, CT is Bloomfield where Mr. Freeney began playing football.
Congratulations Dwight, somehow I think you deserve more than this.

 

[sufandu]

Sweet! One of my all time favorites.

Didn't wait nearly as long as someone on here claimed he'd have to.

 

[DoctorBombay]

Congrats, Dwight!

Btw- how many is that for us in the HOF?

 

[djcon57]

[Scooch]

So freakin’ deserved. Guy was a monster at SU, and was an all-time pro.

 

[oldpinepoint]

Would love to see the NFL film where they go to his house and we can see his reaction. Love those

 

[OrangePA]

Great news!

 

[GoSU96]

The teams with the most in the ACC , Pitt, SU, Miami. What’s up with that?

With Freeney that’s nine more than Rutgers.

 

[MSOrange]

Sweet! One of my all time favorites.

Didn't wait nearly as long as someone on here claimed he'd have to.

I admit I was one of those that thought he'd have to wait a bit longer based on some comments I read from voters over the years, not that I necessarily agreed. But this is awesome to add to the list of SU alums in Canton! Congrats Dwight!

 

[orangenauburn]

Surprised Andre Johnson got in ahead of others

Congrats to Vicks nightmare

I get Hester was great at it, but Kick and Punt returners getting in the HOF is a joke to me. They impact the game the least amount of plays out of any player. I'd rather see a kicker get in.
