John Clayton Mike & Mike: Clayton suggests Larry Allen could miss the HOF this year w/Audio #125
Was watching Mike and Mike this morning and John Clayton suggests that due to the quality of the HOF candidates, Ogden, Sapp, Strahan, Parcells, and somebody else I can't recall that Larry Allen, being a guard, could miss out on this year's HOF vote.

BTW, Clayton is a HOF voter.
Thank you to all donated to the Jason Witten Camp drive!

If Larry Allen isn't a first ballot HOFer, I'll never watch it again.
1. Brandon Magee will beat out Ernie Sims for the backup WILL/MO roster spot.

2. Ron Leary will start at right guard over Bernadeau.

3. Joseph Randle, Terrance Williams and Gavin Escobar will have more combined TD's than DeMarco Murray, Miles Austin and Jason Witten.

4. Bruce Carter makes the Pro Bowl.

5. The starting OL will be Smith-Livings-Frederick-Leary-Free

That would be a complete travesty. Sapp gets in but not Allen? All Sapp was was a DT.

Allen is probably the best guard of all time, not just during the 90's. Gimme a break.

Hard to compare eras -- Allen was certainly the best guard of our generation. Only other one I can think of in the modern era that could be considered on-par or possibly even more highly regarded was John Hannah.

Wow. That would be criminal.
The truth almost always lies somewhere in between...

Except on CZ.

Many writers can't stand the Cowboys and try to convice all of us that we just lucked into 3 SB's all those years ago. Was Ogden that good? Larry is one of the greatest lineman of all time and if these guy's bias win the day...then it's just sad...

Ask Sapp & Strahan if they think Allen was a chump???

Ogden was that good. I mean incredible.

However it's a pathetic shame that they only allow a certain amount of players in each year. Allen should easily be first ballot, but not too many guards get in to begin with these days...he will get in though.

I wonder who the other person was...Jerome Bettis, Tim Brown, Cris Carter, Charles Haley, Kevin Greene ? Hmm...out of those maybe Cris Carter deserves his spot as well.

But I agree that Sapp should be the one that misses out this time around.

Why should Sapp even get in?

I'm sorry, but Ogden and Parcells do not deserve to go in before LA.

Exactly. Sapp talked a better game than he played.

Larry played tackle & guard. He played guard in his later years and still no one wanted to go up against him. No way Ogden is even sniffing LA's jock in talent & performance. Geez!!!

Not that he didn't play tackle. That he primarily played guard and is regarded as such. The guy was a beast, and it is certainly a slight.

I wasn't knocking him at all. Moreso the HOF voters.
