I think the "every down" standard for Kickers and Punters is unlike other special Team guys. Kickers and Punters aren't competing for every down positions, their role is there and you can't just sub in any other player for an elite kicker or punter. Seems silly to hold them to a standard like that.
Yeah I had this same thought. Are we gonna deny Justin Tucker HoF simply because he didn't play every down, even though his skillset is absolutely vital to winning games?
I do think this is Barry's biggest L take, football is a team sport regardless of if one position is harder than another. With the amount Barry complains about bad kickers missing in the NFL you'd think he'd value the good ones
Very brave of you Barry to let that fart slip out 7:22 . Most people don’t let those moments see the light of day, but you are different, my wife’s boyfriend was laughing hysterically and showed me this because he thought I would laugh and I did. You’re saving lives and marriages Barry
The "no special teams player deserves to be in the hall of fame" take is wild, imagine working your entire career to become the best player ever at your position and scoring more points than basically any other position, but being denied because you "weren't good enough" rare Barry L
Hines Ward is the all time catches, receiving yards, and receiving touchdowns leader for a franchise that has had a TON of really good wide receivers. That should be enough of a case for him to be in, and the fact that people think Edelman should be in the HOF while a guy like Ward isn’t in is insanity
If Hines is a HOFer is Anquan a HOFer? I think WR is just stacked same as RB, MLB and edge rush in the NFL HOF. Andre Johnson isn't in yet and he was easily one of the best receivers in the league for almost a decade.
I don't think that's the winning argument for the same reason Steven Jackson is the Rams all-time leading rusher over Bettis, Faulk, Dickerson, etc. Ward will get in based on stats, post-season success, and as undeniably the best blocking WR ever. P.S. Jackson is one of my favorite RB's ever. Hate the lack of respect on his name.
We are not weighing him against those who played for the Steelers. We are weighing him against the every WR ever, so Ward is borderline. Edelman is an easy no though
I think a video or video series breaking down which members of the NBA Hall of Fame actually deserve to be there by the standards of other Hall of Fames would be very interesting
I feel like kickers and punters should be in the hall of fame jus tbecause their jobs significantly impact games and require a special skillset that they have to master and could not adequately be replicated by another random practice squad guy in today's game. I agree with you on other special teamers, though. Like any great receiver or runningback could be a great punt returner if they wanted to be.
To me, you get in the Hall for being great at whatever your role is and having the stats and resume to support it, especially if you’re considered the best or amongst the best at what you do.
How are you gonna penalize specal teams for not being every down players? They play every special teams down. Why not also penalize QBs since they only play offense and not "every down"?
Yeah it's a huge L take. Especially when players like Brees relied so much on YAC of his receivers I think you could say no QB deserves the HoF because they weren't out there getting any of those yards. I guess HoF is only for WR and RBs
@@tgs5725nah cause rbs and receivers only get those yards cause of their offensive lines and Quarterbacks respectively. This is the problem with the whole take to begin with you can limit a guy just because his designed position is limited in a certain way. I agree super dumb take
The NFL points scoring leader is a kicker… I think they should be based more on performance than raw accolades (especially in the clutch with the opportunities given, which they don’t control) like rings although clutchness in regards to postseason performance should be heavily weighted, with that understanding that again they don’t control any of the situations they are put into. They are absolutely worthy to be considered in the HOF - just ask Vikings or Patriots fans for how awful/great their kicking games have been in the past decade…
Barry, my Dad's new husband and my wife's boyfriend allowed me to watch this video and I got to say this is probably the best 28 minutes and 16 seconds of my life. Barry truly is a real American hero with his unquestionable knowledge of sports and a champion in the fight against Marijuana overdoses.
As a Panthers fan I really wish Steve Smith got a ring when we played SB38. All time favorite player for sure. Also, I'll never forget that fuking kickoff out of bounds by John Kasay...
Love hearing your take on Tomlin. He has never been one of the elite coaches all time for me because I’ve never seen a coach get so much credit while simultaneously wasting a ton of talent
If you ask me, he’s on the same tier as the other coach in here that he evaluated and also said doesn’t belong (Siefert). Both won Super Bowls with a lot of talent from the coach before them. Coincidentally enough, both were also defensive coordinators beforehand (Siefert on the Niners of 1983-1988, and Tomlin on the 2006 Vikings and was a defensive back coach for the Bucs in the early 2000’s). And if you ask me, both coaches should be considered “Hall of Very Good” along with the other borderline coaches who are debated at times but not ultimately in. They had successful careers as coaches in the league (both guys have multiple deeper playoff runs and a win percentage of well over .600 for over 150 games coached each in addition to their time as lower coaches on championship teams before), but were handed a lot of talent from the previous coach for their only championships as a head coach, and have resumes that some would call more impressive or even would argue they belong in with, if they didn’t have as much talent handed to them.
I remember when I went to a patriots game when I was 12. It was my first NFL game and this drunk dude in front of me asked me who my favorite player was. I said it was Adam Vinatieri. He laughed and said "Kickers aren't players," and it seems like you have the same thought. Even making an exception tells about your rule a lot, bad take lol
Only player in NBA history to record 1,000 rebounds, 100 blocks, and 100 steals in 4 consecutive seasons One of three players in NBA history to record 150 blocks and 100 steals in 7 consecutive seasons (Hakeem and David Robinson are the others, both hall of famers) One of five players in NBA history to lead the NBA in rebounding and blocking averages in the same season (Kareem, Walton, Hakeem, Dwight, 3 hall of famers and a future hall of famer) One of two players in NBA history to receive NBA Defensive Player of the Year Award four times (other was Mutombo, a hall of famer) Wallace is deserves the hall for sure
Perfect description of mike tomlin as a Steelers fan and a fan of tomlin when you watch him he feels like a coach that’s good but just short of the hall of fame but you look at his stats then you say oh yeah he’s definitely getting in
If we do a deep dive on Scooby, it’s undeniable he’s a hall of famer. On pace for over 10k good boys, over 50k hours of Barry support, 100 birds KIA,7 time puppy of the week winner having a truly dominant season so far. You can’t deny we will see him in the hall of fame one day. Special talent, and an especially good boy 🫡.
As a Steelers fan, your analysis of Tomlin is spot on. When we were very good, every goddamn year we lost a game to a double-digit dog that cost us a spot or two in playoff seedings. That is a major aggravating fact in his HoF argument.
Yeah but here’s the thing, the past 4-5 years he and the defense have hard carried the offense to many wins they shouldn’t have. IMO if Andy Reid (the definition of NFL choker) makes it then Tomlin should.
@@drewforbes8980 Reid without Mahomes is a playoff choker. Even with Mahomes he chokes. The SF Super Bowl he was blowing until Mahomes bailed him out. He blew the Tampa SB. His coaching scored 3 pts in the 2nd half vs the Bengals to miss the SB. His first good SB performance was against the Eagles. Also Tomlin is a defensive Coach, he literally doesn’t call offensive plays ever for the Steelers. There’s a reason the Steeler’s defense is always Elite. There’s a reason he’s never had a losing season.

I feel like even if you dont play every down in football or every inning in baseball, if you do something that others cant do, i think you should be in the respective hall of fame. With special teams players like Devin Hester or Steve Tasker, opposing coaches had to game plan around specifically them, on special teams. Especially for tasker, he should have definitely played on offense more, literally jim kelly advocated to move him up to offense, but marv leavy wanted to keep him on sp because he saw the value of it. Tasker played a huge role in the success of those bills teams with their early 90s dynasty over the AFC, there was no way they get all of those quick defensive stops without him.
The take about relievers not being good enough to be starters is pretty outdated. That was true in the '90s, but now teams absolutely draft and develop guys solely to be relievers. They have arsenals that are just better deployed going all out for one inning at a time. Guys like Craig Kimbrel, Kenley Jansen, Emmanuel Clase, and Edwin Diaz were groomed for late inning relief roles from pretty much the time they entered Major League systems.
Not even trying to be that guy but Kam Chancellor was one of the most feared players in the league for years. Great leader, role model and fantastic overall player,( he had solid pass defense stats but everyone only remembers him for his hitting). He is absolutely a HOFer
Its funny seeing Barry say no to guys like Tucker just because he doesn't like Hester. Imo it's obvious he feels like he needs to avoid being a hypocrite and is forced to use the same argument against Hester as other special teamers. That's why he immediately crumbled and said yes to Vinny only two minutes later
The things Tucker and other kickers have done for the game its crazy not to say they’re hall of famers. Not every kicker deserves that moniker but some most definitely do. Kickers have the game in there hands all the time and most 4th quarter comebacks end in the QB trying to get the KICKER in field goal range. If you take your QB out to give the KICKER a chance to seal the game that’s a pretty solid indication that they’re worth a lot more than he’s implying. Kickers are Hall of Famers, especially Tucker. Period.
Freddie Freeman. He was a bit of a compiler, but for the last several years he’s led the league in multiple offensive categories. He has a ring, as well as an MVP (albeit in a shortened season). I think 2 more all-star caliber seasons puts him in.
Barry must have went to great lengths to find a picture of Aaron Judge playing a pick up basketball game in an Orlando magic jersey just for this video. Truly heroic dedication to the channel.
I think that if you are immortalized in a play, that becomes part of footballb history, football's lore, you should be considered for the Hall of Fame. Talking to you, Lonnie Lett
Kevin Kolb's jersey is in the HOF that he wore during that game where he threw 7 TD passes, even though Kolb himself will never make it in. I think stuff like that would be fine for people who made memorable plays.
Honestly although in a way I get the special teams players for not making it in, you can’t deny that Justin tucker literally won games for the ravens, so many wins for them
Nah Barry, To say Vinatieri is a HOF and not tucker is Absurd. Tucker has way better stats and has the most 50+ kicks with a 70% accuracy and im pretty sure his 66 yard kick isn't getting broken any time soon
Justin Tucker should get in. My thing with kickers is all of the top all-time NFL scorers are kickers so they’re obviously very valuable for their team. If Justin Tucker is the best at a valuable position, and especially if he ends his career as one of the top few all-time scorers, then I think he has to get in
The induction of Terrell Davis into the Pro Football Hall of Fame brought up a lot of issues. I feel like the PFHOF should be more transparent with what exactly their criteria for induction is. I feel like special teamers, fullbacks, and long snappers should all get way more consideration when it comes to HOF induction.
The closer and reliever take is just wrong imo, starters tend to be able to go deeper in games just from a stamina perspective, most closers have the best stuff in the league
As a ravens I’m curious on what you think off Terrell Suggs as a HOF, he’s got a DPOY, multiple 10+ sack seasons, all time leader in TFLs, DROY, and a SB champion. I personally think he’s very underrated as far as defensive ends go so I’m curious on your thoughts.
@@Kevin-lv8wv I forgot about the chiefs one, that was the only reason I wanted KC to win that first one against the 49ers, otherwise I didn’t really care that year.
Comparing fullbacks to kickers is kinda crazy cuz let’s say for example a kicker like vinateri was insanely clutch super longevity rings and is the all time scoring leader in nfl history I don’t think it’s even a debate
Wake was pretty much the goat CFL pass rusher despite only playing 2 years in Canada. If you’re gonna put Moon in the HoF thanks to his dominant early years up north, I think Wake also deserves in for his combined professional career
Roger Maris. 2 time MVP and broke Ruth's HR Record which stood for 60 years. Outside his MVP seasons he didn't do a whole lot, but even still, him not in HoF is insanity
That Tucker take is an absolute L. I understand that kickers aren't always playing, all the do is really kick, but you have to think about how many games are decided by a field goal, or the extra points from kicker. PLUS, he also has a NFL record for the longest kick EVER. He is one of the most consistent kickers of all time, and remains as one of the only kickers that you could see line up from 55+ and expect to make it. In short, Tucker ABSOLUTELY deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
I remember him getting burnt by Andre Johnson of the texans. He also got burnt quite a bit by Michael Crabtree, who had Alex Smith and Kaepernick throwing to him. Yea Peterson was good but he just couldn’t consistently shut down receivers, even just good receivers who had crappy quarterbacks.
Tucker not a HOFer is your worst take. He is the GOAT kicker, got the distance record on a game winning field goal, has most points for the Ravens. No matter if the Ravens are good or shit, he's always consistent and clutch.
Ryan Clady. Boise State Alumni (based). Super Bowl Champ and 2x All-Pro (as well as a 4x Pro Bowler). Didn’t play the longest but was a top three tackle when he did.
I get peoples point when they say the basketball hof standards are very low. But sometimes people forget that it’s the basketball hof not the NBA hof unlike other sports. So a lot of the times players are in the hof due to their impact, or what they did in the Olympics or sometimes college.
Harold Jackson and Billy Howton. One had the most receiving yards of the 70’s and ranked second all time at retirement, the other had the most of the 50’s and ranked first all time at retirement.
Barry, Wake had 39 sacks in the CFL in the two seasons he was there so that gives him 140, that's borderline HOF, and he was dominant for a few years too
My take on the "some positions shouldn't be hall of famers" debate is that what matters is whether or not you're really the best at your role. With the exception of Mariano Rivera, who accumulated enough value as a closer to match a HoF starter, the players who are really the best at closing games are just the best starters. It's the same story for punt returners and many other special teamers, but *not* punters and kickers. (Like with Rivera, a punt returner would still be a valid HoF candidate, but their value would have to be comparable to HoF receivers and no player like that has ever existed)
People forget that Steve Kerr, too, has five rings (I believe) as a player. He is also an all time shooter. He has somewhere between 3rd and fifth most rings between being a coach and player.
I don’t think he will, there are very few safeties in the hall of fame and harrison smith doesn’t have enough all-pro selections or playoff success, which count a lot to the HOF
It’s weird because the kicker thing is one of your rare bad takes. Many games, even a lot of playoff games have been won by kickers. We can’t sit here and clown them when they miss, but when they put in the practice to be better than the rest of the kickers we aren’t gonna credit them? Punters and special teams I agree with you, but you could literally have a top defense AND offense and still lose because your kicker was bad. If being a great kicker was so easy, every team would have one
someone that finally tells the truth about steve kerr and the warriors. he took the same team that mark jackson had and won with them. but people dont want to give credit for that.
Ben Wallace absolutely belongs in the hall of fame. You said it yourself, he's one of the greatest defensive players of all time. And he was the anchor of one of he greatest defenses of all time, and a key to the Pistons making 5 straight conference finals, two NBA finals, and winning a championship in the midst of the Spurs/Lakers dynasties.
I get your point about special teamers and agree that Tucker isn’t as good of an athlete as mostet every down players, but he has brought more value to his team than many hall of famers
I think the "every down" standard for Kickers and Punters is unlike other special Team guys. Kickers and Punters aren't competing for every down positions, their role is there and you can't just sub in any other player for an elite kicker or punter. Seems silly to hold them to a standard like that.
And didn’t he literally say in the first episode that he doesn’t like how the NFL HOF is biased towards certain positions? Lol
Yeah I had this same thought. Are we gonna deny Justin Tucker HoF simply because he didn't play every down, even though his skillset is absolutely vital to winning games?
I do think this is Barry's biggest L take, football is a team sport regardless of if one position is harder than another. With the amount Barry complains about bad kickers missing in the NFL you'd think he'd value the good ones

The things Tucker and other kickers have done for the game its crazy not to say they’re hall of famers. Not every kicker deserves that moniker but some most definitely do. Kickers have the game in there hands all the time and most 4th quarter comebacks end in the QB trying to get the KICKER in field goal range. If you take your QB out to give the KICKER a chance to seal the game that’s a pretty solid indication that they’re worth a lot more than he’s implying. Kickers are Hall of Famers, especially Tucker. Period.
Freddie Freeman. He was a bit of a compiler, but for the last several years he’s led the league in multiple offensive categories. He has a ring, as well as an MVP (albeit in a shortened season). I think 2 more all-star caliber seasons puts him in.
No kickers can go in the hall of fame? Thats wild to me
Barry must have went to great lengths to find a picture of Aaron Judge playing a pick up basketball game in an Orlando magic jersey just for this video. Truly heroic dedication to the channel.
I think that if you are immortalized in a play, that becomes part of footballb history, football's lore, you should be considered for the Hall of Fame. Talking to you, Lonnie Lett
Kevin Kolb's jersey is in the HOF that he wore during that game where he threw 7 TD passes, even though Kolb himself will never make it in. I think stuff like that would be fine for people who made memorable plays.
Big Time Timmy Jim, had an incredibly short Career but was the best pitcher in Baseball for 2 years straight and won 3 rings.
Honestly although in a way I get the special teams players for not making it in, you can’t deny that Justin tucker literally won games for the ravens, so many wins for them
Nah Barry, To say Vinatieri is a HOF and not tucker is Absurd. Tucker has way better stats and has the most 50+ kicks with a 70% accuracy and im pretty sure his 66 yard kick isn't getting broken any time soon
Andre Johnson one of the most dominant WRs at the time up there with megatron
Justin Tucker should get in. My thing with kickers is all of the top all-time NFL scorers are kickers so they’re obviously very valuable for their team. If Justin Tucker is the best at a valuable position, and especially if he ends his career as one of the top few all-time scorers, then I think he has to get in
Exactly, the idea that "special team's players shouldn't be in the hall of fame" is just Asinine, Especially if you're as clutch as Tucker
The induction of Terrell Davis into the Pro Football Hall of Fame brought up a lot of issues.
I feel like the PFHOF should be more transparent with what exactly their criteria for induction is. I feel like special teamers, fullbacks, and long snappers should all get way more consideration when it comes to HOF induction.
The closer and reliever take is just wrong imo, starters tend to be able to go deeper in games just from a stamina perspective, most closers have the best stuff in the league
I’m sad Barry didn’t determine whether or not Ray Rice was worthy of the Hall of Fame.
when you put up Omar Epps (Dr. Foreman) I died laughing
As a ravens I’m curious on what you think off Terrell Suggs as a HOF, he’s got a DPOY, multiple 10+ sack seasons, all time leader in TFLs, DROY, and a SB champion. I personally think he’s very underrated as far as defensive ends go so I’m curious on your thoughts.
Two time SB champ technically, he is a lock for hof
@@Kevin-lv8wv I forgot about the chiefs one, that was the only reason I wanted KC to win that first one against the 49ers, otherwise I didn’t really care that year.
7:22 for barry fart
Comparing fullbacks to kickers is kinda crazy cuz let’s say for example a kicker like vinateri was insanely clutch super longevity rings and is the all time scoring leader in nfl history I don’t think it’s even a debate
Wake was pretty much the goat CFL pass rusher despite only playing 2 years in Canada. If you’re gonna put Moon in the HoF thanks to his dominant early years up north, I think Wake also deserves in for his combined professional career
Roger Maris. 2 time MVP and broke Ruth's HR Record which stood for 60 years. Outside his MVP seasons he didn't do a whole lot, but even still, him not in HoF is insanity
cfb coverage from you will be the best! Please!!!!
Finally made it in a video 😩
That Tucker take is an absolute L. I understand that kickers aren't always playing, all the do is really kick, but you have to think about how many games are decided by a field goal, or the extra points from kicker. PLUS, he also has a NFL record for the longest kick EVER. He is one of the most consistent kickers of all time, and remains as one of the only kickers that you could see line up from 55+ and expect to make it.
In short, Tucker ABSOLUTELY deserves to be in the Hall of Fame.
I LOVE YOU FOR THE BARRY BONDS GRAPHIC
As a cardinals fan I too remember peterson giving big thought downs in critical games
I remember him getting burnt by Andre Johnson of the texans. He also got burnt quite a bit by Michael Crabtree, who had Alex Smith and Kaepernick throwing to him. Yea Peterson was good but he just couldn’t consistently shut down receivers, even just good receivers who had crappy quarterbacks.
Tucker not a HOFer is your worst take. He is the GOAT kicker, got the distance record on a game winning field goal, has most points for the Ravens. No matter if the Ravens are good or shit, he's always consistent and clutch.
Not you shitting yourself at 7:24 😭😭🤣🤣
Someone playing the trumpet at 7:22😂
I'm so happy that Barry and I agree on what the standard should be for the Basketball HOF should be
It’s true that Mike Tomlin loses games he should win……but he also wins games the Steelers should lose so it evens out imo
I love these videos for some reason.
Ryan Clady. Boise State Alumni (based). Super Bowl Champ and 2x All-Pro (as well as a 4x Pro Bowler). Didn’t play the longest but was a top three tackle when he did.
Hey Barry
Can you make a best playoff games video?
Don’t recall, did he do Charles Woodson & Joey Votto in the first vid?
I get peoples point when they say the basketball hof standards are very low. But sometimes people forget that it’s the basketball hof not the NBA hof unlike other sports. So a lot of the times players are in the hof due to their impact, or what they did in the Olympics or sometimes college.
Harold Jackson and Billy Howton. One had the most receiving yards of the 70’s and ranked second all time at retirement, the other had the most of the 50’s and ranked first all time at retirement.
The every down standard doesn’t make sense for kickers. They aren’t playing for another position.
Barry, Wake had 39 sacks in the CFL in the two seasons he was there so that gives him 140, that's borderline HOF, and he was dominant for a few years too
Pausing for the fart at 7:22 is why we keep coming back.
My take on the "some positions shouldn't be hall of famers" debate is that what matters is whether or not you're really the best at your role. With the exception of Mariano Rivera, who accumulated enough value as a closer to match a HoF starter, the players who are really the best at closing games are just the best starters. It's the same story for punt returners and many other special teamers, but *not* punters and kickers.
(Like with Rivera, a punt returner would still be a valid HoF candidate, but their value would have to be comparable to HoF receivers and no player like that has ever existed)
People forget that Steve Kerr, too, has five rings (I believe) as a player. He is also an all time shooter. He has somewhere between 3rd and fifth most rings between being a coach and player.
Tomlin definitely looks like the black guy from house. I’m dead that’s perfect
A lot of these players you mentioned need podcasts IMMEDIATELY 😂
I think Mathis gets in because he has the league record for forced fumbles
I got one for the next video, Myles Garret since he's a top 3 edge in the nfl right now.
Certainly on the trajectory of being one
Do you think Harrison Smith will make the hall of fame? He’s a 6x pro bowler and is honestly Probaly the best safety from 2015-2019.
I say he might get in someday
I don’t think he will, there are very few safeties in the hall of fame and harrison smith doesn’t have enough all-pro selections or playoff success, which count a lot to the HOF
Shouldn’t get in before Darren Woodson but he should be in eventually
It’s weird because the kicker thing is one of your rare bad takes. Many games, even a lot of playoff games have been won by kickers. We can’t sit here and clown them when they miss, but when they put in the practice to be better than the rest of the kickers we aren’t gonna credit them? Punters and special teams I agree with you, but you could literally have a top defense AND offense and still lose because your kicker was bad. If being a great kicker was so easy, every team would have one
Keenan Allen. I feel like he’s a guy that is never brought up in Hall of Fame discussions.
In the next one you should do Bobby Boucher
I’d like to hear a Brandon Marshall discussion
Barry: Structure this in order of sports. I don't watch the NFL.
Priest Holmes had a 3 year stretch on par with LT, Barry Sanders, & others. Pretty insane when you look at the numbers.
Thank you Barry for answering my question. I will make sure to show my wife's boyfriend
I am once again asking for you to reupload the NFL coach fight club video. Pretty please
7:23 I know y’all heard that fart 😭😭
someone that finally tells the truth about steve kerr and the warriors. he took the same team that mark jackson had and won with them. but people dont want to give credit for that.
Geno atkins one of the best DT while he played, was the best pass rushing DT before donald came into the league.
Ben Wallace absolutely belongs in the hall of fame. You said it yourself, he's one of the greatest defensive players of all time. And he was the anchor of one of he greatest defenses of all time, and a key to the Pistons making 5 straight conference finals, two NBA finals, and winning a championship in the midst of the Spurs/Lakers dynasties.
Love the fart at 7:22 peak content 10/10 need more
i like the use of players already in the hof. you made an exception for vinatieri, would you make one for mariano rivera?
I get your point about special teamers and agree that Tucker isn’t as good of an athlete as mostet every down players, but he has brought more value to his team than many hall of famers
