Terrell Davis is just as big of a snub

Davis case is not even close to Andersons case.. Kenny should have never waited this long.. Davis is closer than ever compared to Anderson in his prime years as HOF eligible.  Davis also really had 4 good to great seasons  but he also played for a team like Denver that as really good and had players replace Davis who also did well at RB.

  Some compare his career to Sayers but makes it a bit tougher with the different eras plus Bears were bad when Sayers got there and he really changed the game as a RB...

Who really deserves more consideration is Dillion.. Look at some of his accomplishments playing with the Bengals during one of the worse runs in NFL history for wins and losses and notice what he did when he went to a winning team in NE.  Think about if Dillion was on Denver instead of Davis and had the same numbers he has right now.. he would already be in the HOF.  the committee is so bias towards the team you played on and do not give a fair shake to players like Dillion that played for really really bad teams. 

Dillion rushed for over 11,000 in 10 seasons ( 7 of those seasons, I  believe best record we had was 8-8 with Bengals.)
When he went to NE he rushed for 1,600 in their Super Bowl winning season and had a very solid playoff performance.

I see him as worthy as Davis when you look at numbers, the different levels of teams they played for.... but he has no chance since he played most of his career with the Bengals and the committee will downgrade him for that.  Maybe when he gets old and they look back as the senior committee they will fix the major oversite for Dillion.. but hell Anderson still can;t get in with the Seniors either... so who knows
