True to an extent, but its a QB-driven league.

1/20/21 8:39am

Yeah, it was horrible when he had a hof RB and TE. Philip Rivers was in the team

HOF

Do you get the HOF because you played a long time??

Phreddy

So he's a HOFer based on what the HOF is, but not what you'd wish it would be?

8 pro bowls--peers considered him one of the best for a long time

Parker Schnabel
