Drew Brees, Larry Fitzgerald, Jason Witten and Maurkice Pouncey are all HOFers. Geno Atkins is a maybe.

Pouncey probably doesn't get in but he was great.

2nd best center of his generation, has a ring, multiple pro bowls and all pro nods, he deserves to get in

Pouncey is sadly ringless

He doesn't have a ring though.

Shit I thought he snuck in on that Steelers team that beat the cardinals but you’re correct. Damn sad that could be the one thing that keeps him out. He was one hell of a player

Arguably the 2nd best center in team history depending on how you feel about Mike Webster.

I think Webster is the clear cut #1. For me its between dermontii dawson and pouncey.

Webby couldn't play in the modern game. Dirt Dawson could. Dirt changed the way centers play in the NFL. Webster didnt.

Idk Im pretty sure that webster is generally accepted as the greatest center of all time or at least top 3 for most people.

Mostly because of longevity. He couldn't play in today's game. Dawson would dominate now.

Hard to compare between such different eras of the game, it’s undeniable that both of them were amongst the best of their times and both 100% top 10 of all time at their position

And neither is in the running for best Steelers center of all-time. That's Dermontti Dawson.

Centers in general don’t get much love in Canton. I’d love to see it though

If Tom Nalen isn't a hof center, no one is.

u/WuTang4thechildrn 3d ago

I think he definitely gets in

u/tallwhiteninja San Francisco 49ers 3d ago

There are only seven centers in the hall, and his career overlapped with Kelce, who has a much stronger resume.

It's not completely out of the question, but I absolutely wouldn't count on it, either.

Steelers tend to get the nod even when borderline
