      Abel Mehari listen man i watched this dude play in the early 90's and, coming from a Niners fan, I would say he's 1a in my book as far as the most dominant receiver of that time. Unfortunately, injuries derail many promising careers, and 7 years just isn't enough time to log to be considered a Hall of Famer. Again, not disagreeing with the unstoppable part, cause this dude was straight fire.

RIGHT THERE. He could run every pattern, and he was tough over the middle, and had speed to get deep. Sterling Sharpe was a bad boy...

I always thought he was a great athlete, but this speech offers insight into him being a great person. It's not easy to admit ones flaws, but he did it unapologetically. Glad to have the opportunity to see such a moving experience. May God continue to bless and keep him.❤

    @promeitheus 7 ปีที่แล้ว +42

    The Hall of Fame was built for Sterling Sharpe. For Sterling to not have a place there is insane. At the point of his retirement he was among best receivers of all time; and among his contemporaries only Jerry Rice is in his class- and Rice is only considered to be better because he played longer; Sharpe was the far superior WR of the two, in every facet of the game. How is he not in the hall of fame?

    • @kdtrey5isabeast
      @kdtrey5isabeast 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      promeitheus sterling was great but don't say he's superior to Jerry. Jerry is undoubtedly the greatest receiver ever and among the top 5 players of all time. And if guys like Terrell Owens, marvin harrison, and isaac bruce don't get in their first try, sterling will never make it
