Tingelhoff was a Veterans Committee candidate while Wolf and Polian entered under the auspices of the new Contributor sub-committee.Noticeably mi sing are former legend Marvin Harrison as well as Orlando Pace and Taylor Guerrieri Jersey Kurt Warner of the "Greatest Show on Turf" . If the 2015 cla s is any indication, that trio will be honored in the coming years.The late Seau was the lone first-ballot enshrinee. Standing with Lance Alworth, Dan Fouts and LaDainian Tomlinson on the ' version of Mt. Rushmore, Seau earned six All-Pro selections and 12 appearances in a 20-year career.During XLIX week, coach Pete Carroll cited the spirit with which Seau played as his lasting legacy."I think the style of play that he brought to the league," Carroll explained. "He was so outgoing and so aggre sive and took chances and was a big risk Ronald Guzman Jersey taker.Along with Ray Lewis and Brian Urlacher, Seau was one of three greatest inside linebackers of the past two decades. He was a for the .Christened "The Bus" for his powerful, bruising running style as the most distinctive big running back of his era, Bettis boasted nimble feet that belied his 260-pound frame.Bettis was the perfect back for Bill Cowher's teams that succeeded with a swarming, smash-mouth defense and a ball-control offense. Cowher lauded Bettis as the greatest football "closer" of all time, breaking tackles and wearing down defenses while killing the clock in close games. Bettis also deserves credit for his short-yardage and goal-line prowe s.Haley was the disruptive difference-making defensive force for two dynasties. His five rings with the late 1980s and the 1990s are the most in NFL history. He was Alex Claudio Jersey twice named NFC Defensive Player of the Year and finished his career with 100.5 sacks.Haley appeared in six NFC Championship Games in a span of seven seasons. His team won the division in 10 of his 12 years and produced a collective .700 winning percentage. If there was an NFC game of the week during Haley's career, chances are he was prominently featured making impact plays. His biggest drawback in the eyes of voters was locker-room behavior that would make look like a choir boy.Brown's 1,094 receptions rank fifth in NFL history, which is amazing considering the cast of suspect quarterbacks in the 1990s. One of the game's most dynamic return specialists early in his career, Brown didn't top 1,000 yards until his sixth season. He then accomplished the feat in eight consecutive years.In the twilight of his career, a 36-year-old Brown teamed with a 40-year-old Jerry Rice to lift the to XXXVII.Shields was a picture of consistency, earning 12 nods with the from 1993 to 2006. The Kansas City offensive lines that paved the way for Priest Holmes and Larry Johnson in the early 2000s were among the most dominant in recent memory, with Shields leading the way as a highly athletic pulling guard.Among rs, only Bruce Matthews played more years (19) and had more starts (292) than Tingelhoff's 17 and 259. An undersized center at 6-foot-2 and 237 pounds, Tingelhoff blocked for running backs that went to 13 s and played in four s. He is perhaps best known for a Ariel Jurado Jersey brand of hard-nosed football that from teammates as well as opponents.Wolf is one of the most highly regarded in NFL history. He started his career as a scout under Al Davis with the in the early 1960s and helped build a dynasty that ran throughout the 1970s and culminated with the XVIII Championship team in 1983. As general manager in the 1990s, Wolf traded for Brett Favre and recruited Reggie White to Green Bay, jump-starting six consecutive playoff berths and a pair of appearances.How many football executives can say they engineered Adrian Beltre Jersey playoff squads in three different cities? Polian began his career by constructing the teams that struck out in four consecutive s. He then hopscotched to the expansion in 1995, quickly a sembling a team that ended the ' dynasty with a trip to the NFC Championship Game a year later.Polian capped off his career by drafting over Ryan Leaf, leading to 11 postseason berths in a 13-year span, including the Lombardi Trophy in XLI. The former executive already selected Marv Levy to for induction.
