Howley. That was a Great Cowboy!!

Add to Chuck Howley playing along side DD Lewis and Lee Roy Jordan that was a hell of a LB core

Happy birthday to the Cowboy most deserving to be in the HOF who is not.

 

[CooterBrown]

The biggest HOF omission in NFL.

Chuck Howley was just about as good as it gets for any LB of his time.

Here's wishing a Happy Birthday to one of the best Cowboys ever!

He should be in. That's a no brainer.

As great as he was, I've always wondered how good he would have been had his knee been repaired with today's standards. He needs to be in the HOF. If we had won one of those games against GB would he be in?

Of the Colts game. He is the only SB MVP who played on the losing team.

If any modern day LB would put up these numbers and stats he'd be touted as a sure-fire HOF'er
SB MVP
6 Pro-Bowls
5 First Team All-Pro
1 Second Team All-Pro
25 INTs
18 Fumbles Recovered

There was also a very strong argument for him to be SB MVP in the following Super Bowl as well. He was a playmaker in the big games.

That's a good trivia question:

Name two SB MVP's that not only played for the same team (at different times) but also wore the same jersey number.

 

[Chuck 54]

Happy Birthday, Chuck.....Mr. Turnover Machine.

 

[erod]

Not enough credit thrown his way.

Next to Lilly, he was the best player on that defense.

Happy Birthday Chuck!

One of the Cowboy greats of yesteryear!

We should have two players that wore #54 in the HOF.

Happy Birthday, Mr. Howley! The big 8-1!

We sure could use you on this team! Hoping Jaylon inherits some of your gifts!

 

[plasticman]

Randy White

Absolutely. Yes, I realize he was technically a co-MVP. However, it can't be argued that the #54 should be an iconic number reserved for those player with a high level of potential, just like #88.

Here's hoping Jaylon Smith adds to the tradition of excellence to #54.

81 years young, Happy Birthday!

I would include Harvey Martin in that conversation.
