It's been a long time since Miami's had a LB like Zach Thomas.

Film study. In all the collective bargaining era of less off-season mandates, less hours per practice, less practices, and the joke of only 18 padded practices per year ... guys who live, eat and breathe football are becoming a dying breed. It's all about making that money ... and as great as technology is about serving these things up on a silver platter ... precious few professionals work at it anywhere near as much as Zach Thomas did.
His "measurables" were bad ... but part of the reason was they never measured his work ethic or commitment to being great. IMHO, this should be praised and revered. They're all compensated very, very well these days ... but many of them simply do not put as much into the game any more.

Love Zach and hated Kevin M, he was so, so
Good. I wish we had a center and lb of their talent.

It’s criminal that Zach Thomas isn’t in Canton.
Yes. WE should have a sticky mega thread about Zach needing to be in HOF until he gets in.
It's complete bs, and he was ALWAYS a fantastic person on and off the field.

He should know, they battled like warriors back and forth for many years, and was a great (Not good) Center in his own right.

I think Zach Thomas will be in the HOF, just a matter of when. He should be in already.
Anyone think Luke will be in HOF? He doesnt have the career numbers since he retired relatively early/young. But I think Luke should absolutely be in the HOF as well.

He was not the fastest, or biggest, but when you started measuring hearts, he was among those with the biggest, add those with the best anticipation, and a one handed woodshop teacher with fingers missing could still count the amount of LBs with better.

It is what it is
John Clayton has recently said Thomas is gaining traction in the voting room. I'm hopeful he will get in within the next few years.
It would be extremely helpful if a big name went to bat for him like Brady did for JT.
