    Harold Baines has a statue? Does LaMarr Hoyt have one too?

    Yeah, because that would be redundant.

    If you want to make the Hall of Fame with Testaverde's profile, you better have been at the heart of something truly historic and momentous for the league. Something like Joe Namath and the Jets winning Super Bowl III and paving the way for the NFL-AFL merger (and therefore the NFL as we know it today). That one game more than anything got Namath in Canton.

    Last I checked, Testaverde does not have such an accomplishment to his credit. So no go.

    He had a couple good seasons with the Jets. He had that year with the Ravens where they threw on almost every down and he had 4,000 yards. I think Baltimore went 4-12 that year.

    I'm not sure if his 35 interceptions in a season is a NFL record, but I wouldn't be surprised if it was.

    LaMarr Hoyt SHOULD have a statue.

    Hahaha, there is no argument. Vinny was, at his best, a borderline pro bowler. A HOF QB needs Super bowl wins and/or being considered a pro bowl QB for a majority of his years.

    Blanda has the single-season INT record with 42 in 1962. And that was in a 14-game season...

    No. Not even a debate among reasonable people.

    Would they engrave "Intercepteverde" on the bust? Because that would be worth putting him in the HOF.
