Craig is the original dual threat HB.

Yes, Craig needs to be in the Hall.

Craig was a mediocre RB

The fumble in the 1990 NFC Championship game is probably keeping him out..

Warrick Dunn (Florida State) from Catholic (Baton Rouge) should be in the NFL Hall of Fame over Roger Craig.

Matt Forte (Tulane) from Slidell High, La was a better RB than Craig too, but he can't get his picture on the cover of the Rolling Stone either.

You're an idiot as usual.... Craig was an Offensive Player of the year, was on the All Decade team of the 1980's and key player on a 3 time superbowl champion team.... Not to mention, the first player ever to have 1,000 yards rushing and 1,000 yards receiving in a season which has only been done 3 times in the history of the NFL...

Warrick Dunn was a Bust and no one even remembers who the other guy you mentioned is.... 🤣

Roger Craig ranks #49 All Time in total scrimmage yards. Just barely Top 50.

He was a product of the 49ers West Coast offense that included Joe Montana and Jerry Rice.

Who cares if Roger Craig caught  a lot of dunk passes for 5 yards from Montana.

Obviously not the people that elect Hall of Famers. 🤠🏈🤠

Why? Why?
The things that people say on the internet are simply amazing.

Warrick Dunn and Matt Forte played on crap teams and still had better careers than Roger Craig. 🤠🏈🤠

Quote from: Norcalnut on Jan 30, 2026, 04:40 PMIt's funny how people (not saying you) want to bring up cheating in professional sports like and it's rare and we should alll be up in arms about it. Cheating has been part of professional sports from day one. That's why they have the saying "If you ain't cheating you ain't trying". Baseball sign stealing is tried every damn game (Astros just were stupid about it). Deflateagate is the same, quarterbacks will do anything to make passing easier and more accurate (Patriots were stupid enough to get caught) I could go on and on. 3/4 of the HOF shouldn't have been inducted if that was a criteria.

I agree with you on Eli, if you take away his 2 SB years and look at his career (I think 2011 was his only HOF worthy year of his career) he looks mediocre at best. His last few years were atrocious. How is 3tds over 2 Super Bowls HOF worthy. Someone please give me his upside because I can't see it.

I agree 100% on the cheating, I was speaking more of the HOF voters that would have used that as a reason. Plus he had Brady all those years. How good did he do when he did not have Tome Brady?

First take is... retarded. When he retired, he was number one for a running back in receptions (566) and number one for a running back in receiving yards (4911). He was 13th on the all-time rushing list (8889) when he retired in '93. So to say he was, "mediocre" when he pretty much was the top all purpose /dual threat back in his era makes no sense whatsoever.

Second take... actually do agree with you. I think that has some bearing in his exclusion.

Lets put ALL the glory year's 49ers in the NFL Hall of Fame.
He would make the 4th or 5th, right?

Makes a guy wonder.

TheOC89 clown said Warrick Dunn was a BUST.
Wonder what Warrick Dunn could have done with the San Francisco 49ers and that West Coast offense instead of the crap he played for. 🤠🏈🤠

"Warrick Dunn is one of only a select few NFL running backs to reach 10,000 rushing yards and 4,000 receiving yards in their career. Based on historical data, about 5-6 players have achieved this specific milestone, including Dunn, Marshall Faulk, Tiki Barber, Marcus Allen, Ricky Watters, and occasionally LaDainian Tomlinson depending on the exact yardage cutoff.

"Warrick Dunn: Finished his career with 10,967 rushing yards and 4,339 receiving yards.

Other members of the 10K/4K club: Marshall Faulk, Tiki Barber, Marcus Allen, and Ricky Watters also achieved this dual milestone.

Dunn was recognized as the 7th player to hit these combined milestones in some reports (often including slightly different receiving thresholds).

He is considered one of the most productive dual-threat, yet underrated, running backs in NFL history."

People forget just how fast Warrick Dunn was. 👇

4.28 40 Yard Dash and 10.3 100 Meters.

He was the #12 pick in the 1st Round and everybody said he would be a bust because he was too small.

He played 12 years!!
