deion sanders is a freaking joke! he has yet to tackle anyone on a running play. his technique was poor but his speed made up for his mistakes.[/QUOTE

Just to be clear, are you saying that Ray Guy was a better athlete than deion?

Deion is arguably the best corner ever to play and without argument top 5. He defined "shutdown corner" and literally took away an entire side of the field.

If you really believe that Deion was a joke of a player, then you are letting your own personal bias get in the way of objective thought. If you think Ray Guy deserves the hof before deion, that is just a hopelessly bad opinion.

deion was a poor CB. he was constently out of postion but his speed made up for it. deion did NOT play the run. Rod Woodson was an excellent CB. Woodson could cover, blitz and play the run. deion was a good kick returner.
i didn't say Ray Guy was a better athlete, i said he was a excellent athlete and should have been in the HOF LONG before this. and there is NO Way deion should be in the HOF and Ray Guy not.

Deion was obviously great at what he did, but first ballot hall of famer when guys like Carter aren't in and guy like Art Monk took like 37 years to get enshrinement? I think not.

Deion was a poor CB? LOL

It was nothing special to play QB and punt back in those days DD. If I'm not mistaken, Danny White was a punter as well.

You are correct about Danny White being both. He was a QB and Punter for the Cowboys.
