Top 10 Greats Not in the HOF

NFL Network's Top 10 show features the 10 greatest players NOT in the Hall of Fame. #6 on their list is none other than the great Kenny Stabler. Canton has eluded the Snake for far too long. It's bad enough Ray Guy and Cliff Branch still wait for their calling, but this show got it right when it ranked Stabler as one of the greats still waiting for the call.

The former Alabama star led the Raiders to their first Super Bowl victory in SB XI against the Minnesota Vikings in 1976. He threw 150 career touchdowns for the Silver & Black during a career that spanned 11 seasons (1968-79).

There are 17 men in the Hall of Fame that held some association with the Raiders, but only George Blanda played QB for the Raiders. When you compare Stabler's accomplishments to Blanda, it's hard to understand why he's not in the Hall.
