Message: [QUOTE="Day2, post: 3194433, member: 5348"] Not one RB from this century made the list. The most recent player to make the cut was Emmitt Smith (who did play a few seasons in the 00s, but that wasn’t his prime). So the NFL is saying that no one from the last 20 years (one-fifth of the time period) was great enough. That doesn’t pass the sniff test. Belichick and Madden were given too much power in this process. They did all the research on the old-time players and presented their findings to the committee. Given the respect they have, they basically get to dictate who makes it. I’m interested to see how this plays out. I expect more and more critics each week. [/QUOTE]
