I highly doubt he gets elected to the hall

With that said, he and Derrick Brooks have pretty comparable stat lines, and Brooks played for 2 seasons more. I think that if the Bears beat the Colts in 07 he gets in.

He was so good. But because he played alongside a hofer he probably wont get the credit he deserves. I think Briggs and hester are two other players in the lovie smith era that need to be in the hall.

Briggs did not look like a HOF player that made a HOF impact when Urlacher wasn’t playing. He looked great, don’t get me wrong, but not quite HOF caliber.

He was a product of Urlacher so I doubt he gets in

I think eventually yes he should be hof but depends who he is going up against in a given year. Guy was a consistent game changer for us.

He is in the Hall of really good. He could sneak in on a down yr but it's probably not likely. Although there were a few years where I thought he was the best player on that defense.

Probably not. He will be in consideration but I think he falls short just like Tillman and Hester.

Ah that's a hard one. I think that Briggs was more well known nationally around the league but Peanut's stats for his position would probably be a better argument for him to make it. Only DB with 40+FF and 30+INTs I think. That's a pretty amazing job. 44 FF for any player let alone a DB is ridiculous so I'd say Peanut has a better case for making the HoF. But he was universally underrated for like the first 9 years of his career and it wasn't until like late into the Lovie era that the national media even took an interest in him and gave him the respect he deserved.
