Looks like Roger Craig made the HOF.

I'm too young to remember most of his prime, but I'm aware he had a very good career & had a monster game in that Super Bowl vs. the 'Fins. Of course I'll always be thankful to him for his fumble in the '90 NFC title game, which was also his final game as a 49er.

I do wonder that with dudes like Floyd Little & now Craig getting into Canton...can Tiki get a gold jacket down the line? He should IMO.

...!

He had a couple of outstanding seasons

he was the first guy to get 1000 yards rushing & receiving in the same season. He was solid to outstanding from 1984-1989. Fell off badly in 1990 and we all thank him for coughing up the ball when Erik Howard hit him in the 1990 NFC Championship Game. Kind of coasted the last few seasons and didn't produce much.

A Hall of Famer? Well, if he is, Tiki should be in.
He is not a HOF from my memory  
Eli is more worthy

Craig had a habit

of fumbling in big situations, IIRC. Good player. Not sure he is HoFer.

I wouldn't complain if Tiki made it, but Craig has three Super Bowl rings, more Pro Bowl invites, and won AP OPOY. And what has always worked against Tiki's case is that he retired and the Giants won a Super Bowl the following season.
No way, he should be in the Hall of Good

Lots of RBs were better
Craig In And Tiki Not

Is a crime.
He was also

a pretty good pitcher. Bo Jackson lite?
Guy was barely a top 10 player

on his own damn team but Eli gets knocked for not being a top five QB in the league during his era. There will be no outrage on First Take or talk radio tomorrow though.
LONG overdue

Craig should be the HOF..
Craig vs Tiki  
AlbanyGmen : 8:20 pm : link
Tiki was better!
I mean if Craig makes it  
terz22 : 8:23 pm : link
Shouldn't this open the door for tiki?
Craig…hit behind the line of scrimmage..  
DC Gmen Fan : 8:34 pm : link
And the GIANTS had the ball!!!
What a joke  
HomerJones45 : 8:53 pm : link
apparently, playing for the 80's era Niners is your ticket to the HOF. From that time period, Curt Warner, Riggs, George Rogers, Herschel Walker were all better runners.
Soft spot for the guy

thanks to his fumble but HOF? Not even that close to be honest. Had he played on any other team, nobody would be considering him. Good news for Tiki though, his comps look real nice.
