Chiefs Is Joe Thuney a hall of famer? - Page 2

4x super bowl champion
2x first team
2x second team
3x pro bowler

Never had a season with more than 10 penalties and regardless what the Humphries humpers say he helped save this season by moving to LT.

At this point I’d have to say yes.

He’s got availability (played in 15+ games every year of his career plus 20 additional playoff games). He’s approaching the tipping point for longevity (9 seasons). He’s got postseason success. He’s got individual accolades (four APs). He’s got the peak argument (been a top 5 guard his entire career).

Now he can say that he’s a plus LT? If we win the Super Bowl with him at T, I think you have to say he deserves to get in.

No not atm he isn't. Comparing other HOF guards he needs more All pro and Pro Bowl years and needs to play at a high level at least another 4 years.

As I was sitting at the game Sunday, I was wondering where they were going to put all the names in The Chiefs Ring of Honor.

Reid
Mahomes
Kelce
Jones
Spags
Veach

That isn't counting all the young talent if they stick around and continue to produce at a high level

First team All Pros, Lombardi's with 2 different teams, played LT in the playoffs and had one of his best games last Sunday.

Yes, he's a hall of famer.
[Reply]

I think so. And that's before he wins next Sunday. Championships with two teams, Chiefs dynasty, clutch moving around the O line, etc.

heck man, the way this team is dominating the stadium hot dog vendor could get on the ballot in a few years.
[Reply]

Win Next Sunday and I think he's in.

Come up short and I think he needs another SB appearance. I think that would give him the all-time record for appearances.

It's close. It's DAMN close. But I think he still has a liiiiiiitle work to do.

Butker has a non-zero chance of being the all-time leader in playoff appearances.

He has one more game played than Mahomes. If he sticks around in KC and stays healthy, he'll always be just a tick ahead of PM.

Yeah, I think he's got a shot. The injury this year cost him the All Pro nod he was gonna get, but he'll still get a few more in the future.

Guard just seems like a difficult position to get in. Very exclusive list. In recent memory, they inducted Alan Faneca and Steve Hutchinson.

Will Shields had more personal accomplishments and wasn't a first ballot pick.

Brian Waters isn't in the HOF, yet his all-pro honors are similar to Thuney's.

Waters doesn't have any championships and let's face it, that's a big thing for voters. Especially when said player has rings with two different teams.
[Reply]

Yes definitely

but as a guard, not as LT.
[Reply]

Everyone who plays on the KC Chiefs should be in the HOF IMO

Does Tyreek go in a Chief?
[Reply]

Of the young players, McDuffie has the trajectory of he can stay healthy.
[Reply]

If Gene Upshaw can get in, Thuney can….

I mean at his present trajectory he'll retire with like 12 Super Bowl rings.

So yeah, I think that would probably do the trick...

If they keep winning like this, a lot of guys are gonna be in the hall, just like the dynasties before them.
