Congratulations to the 2023 Hall of Fame Class
Joe Thomas
Darrelle Revis
Ronde Barber
Demarcus Ware
Zach Thomas
Chuck Howley
Ken Riley
Joe Klecko
Don Coryell
Can't really complain about any of these. All highly deserving. Ken Riley might be a bit of a stretch (only one first team All pro and 3 All pro teams overall) but thsoe 65 interceptions are hard to ignore.
Definitely better than last year's class where they put in a friggin referee.

Really happy for Klecko, he was trying so hard to get in this for so many years.
Revis was absolutely deserving and I am happy he's going in as a Jet but between the countless holdouts and him joining the Patriots and winning a ring, my admiration for him is nowhere near as high as plenty of other Jet fans.

It was an incredibly deep group of finalists this year, most of the guys who didn't get in are definitely deserving - Reggie Wayne, Patrick Willis, Devin Hester I'd expect to get in next year when there's only Gates and Peppers as first ballot guys. The bar is definitely being raised for receivers though...

The bar is definitely being raised for receivers though... Dwight Freeney too He's got a chance but I didn't include him because I think his one-dimensionality might count against him, he might have to wait a few years with Peppers and then Suggs coming up in the next couple of years. Jared Allen has had an extra year of eligibility and hasn't got in yet.
