Semi-OT: Wilfork done?

Will soon be making a stop in the Pats HOF. IDK if he makes the pro football HOF. He has a decent chance as he was the best nose tackle of his generation imo but i wonder how much that is valued.

I don't think there is a single true nose tackle on the HOF.

I forget the guy, but he retired in like 1952 and played nose tackle in a 5-2, the standard formation at the time. The position slowly morphed into a 4-3 MLB.

Edit: my mistake he is listed as a "middle guard" There are zero nose tackles.

Count offensive players vs. defensive then slowly explain to me again about T.O.

Holy crap I'd forgotten about the play @ 1:48 where he read the screen perfectly and hit Donald Jones very very hard to break up the play.
