as a Niners fan that grew up watching him and got his autographs several times upon opening this thread up it was an easy click no for me. Very good player, nice hands for a running back but he even with the scrimmage yards he was never really a dominant guy in the league.

3x Super Bowl champ (he was effective in all three but sure that had nothing to do with the hofers on the team)

first team all-Pro once

3 times he finished in top 10 in league for rushing (3rd, 8th and 10th)

73 career touchdowns (97th alltime), never had a season where he reached 10 rushing touchdowns

only time led league in any stat was in receptions in 1985



he was a nice piece for the Niners and absolutely changed how some running backs were used greatly but I just can't see how I could give him a hall of fame vote
