Because how many times has cameron jordan played LB?

If we step away from stats for a second there is a reasonably significant difference between cameron jordan and von verses chandler jones and von.

Cameron Jordan has always been a traditional three point stance DE whereas Chandler and Von can play as more of a linebacker/edge role.

Look, Cameron Jordan and Chandler Jones have the same resume so I'm not going to play tit for tat here. I was giving what I thought the closest comp to von and you named someone with basically the same stats. If there is someone who fills the gap between jones/jordan versus von better, let me know.

Both Jordan and Chandler are outside looking in where as von is inside looking out. I don't feel any of them can't hold each others jock strap.

Happy?

I can’t believe people are putting Von Miller and Chandler Jones in the same sentence as comparable. Von Miller single-handedly won a Super Bowl for the Broncos . Just dominant when he is healthy. Freak athlete

You are absolutely correct, to caveat

The All-Decade Teams are named by members of the Pro Football Hall of Fame selection committee.

Every eligible unanimous selection, so those named 1st team on all ballots, have been voted into Canton.

Every single eligible member on that unanimous list of every single All-Decade team.

That entire list itself is very short.

Von Miller is a unanimous selection.

It makes sense: the average IQ around here has dipped below 80 as well.

I agree with Grid. I got into Hall of Fame collecting 6 or 7 years ago. I've learned what voters look for. All Pro selections and All Decade Team. He will be in the Hall.

Not a Hall of Famer but had a pretty good career.

I think the real question is whether someone like James Harrison is a HOFer.

I didn't vote, but still think he's a scumbag. He'll get into the HOF regardless.

I voted yes. He is not as dominant as he once was but hoping he has a better 2023 season.
