re: Ricky Watters: Hall of Fame worthy?

The reasoning that the commentators on the show gave for him not being in it were:
1) The current RB's in the HOF all have "defining moments". Watters, in their opinion, didn't have one.
2) The "For Who, For What?" incident.
Yeah, the NFL HOF is fickle like that, kinda lame imo. He did have 3 TDs in the beatdown of the Chargers. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he was one of the first guys to really be a running and receiving threat, especially in the 49ers west coast system.
His stats only look better if you take out his final year where he had ~80 touches in 5 games.
How many people "fearded" Curtis Martin? I think he gets in.

I don't think Curtis Martin belongs either.

Roger Craig was doing it before Watters.

My thought is that he was part of a trio consisting of Young and Rice and RW. When two belong, it's natural to think the third does. I thought RW was good, but IMO you should be truly special to be in the HOF. He wasn't that.
