Deacon Jones is #1. NFL didn't keep stats for sacks back then but a historian should count 'em up on the film.
Arguing on the internet is like winning the special olympics, even if you win your still messed up.
Restore the roar!

Richard Dent should be in the HOF.

30th isn't bad, nor is 6 1/3 sacks a year for 15 years.

I refuse to acknowledge any additions (have for years) to the HOF until Dent is enshrined.

True dat. What a player.
And McMichael, always knew that guy was a beast. Wouldn't mind a player in his mold back in there for us!
Have you seen the video/movie NFL Chicago Bears: The Complete History? Pretty sweet, and I watched it for free here!
