	Larry Centers on this list was the most amazing to me.

	Also it's crazy to think Art Monk once was the all-time NFL leader in receptions and now look how many are ahead of him.

	Man, I always have trouble remembering receivers. I got half, but only barely. And congrats on your first quiz, irons. I agree, seeing Centers there was a bit of a shock. Everyone (including me) forgets what a versatile player he was.

	Can someone explain to me how Cris Carter is not in the Hall of Fame?

	y2jdilemma:	Jul 18th, 2009 at 15:39 GMT	-2 points
	Great quiz. never even considered RBs. and bosox...because all he did was catch touchdowns! HAHA

	CCCarnie:	Jul 18th, 2009 at 16:36 GMT	5 points
	Agreed, great quiz. And I guess being a Bills fan helps to get some of the harder ones. (Lofton, Moulds, Reed, Centers)

	To Bosoxrule: Not many guys get in on the first ballot and last year was his first chance. He should be a lock this year, he was a beast on the field and a quality guy off it.

	Carter should have gotten on the first time and it's crazy that he missed out twice. He'll be in soon enough but I agree that it's odd. Also, I wouldn't be surprised if Derrick Mason winds up playing this year, I don't think he has officially turned in his paperwork to retire yet, so I would guess that he'll need an asterisk pretty soon like the other active guys.

	The "all he does is catch touchdowns" is a reference to a statement by Buddy Ryan when Carter played for the Eagles his first couple seasons. It's a joke; relax Vikings fans.

	@journey2688:this isnt a QB quiz, just read the title,Can you name the NFL All-Time Reception Leaders?

	HollywoodLeo:	Jul 18th, 2009 at 22:14 GMT	1 point
	Why do I always forget about Cris Carter in WR related quizzes?

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Jul 18th, 2009 at 22:23 GMT	4 points
	Irons, even more amazing than Monk is that Largent was the all-time leader just about 20 years ago, and now he's down to the second column.

	i got Ellard and Centers, yeah booooy

	Michael:	Jul 18th, 2009 at 22:39 GMT	1 point
	27 out of 30 not bad, Moulds is not active hasn't played since 07

	RyanUR:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 02:38 GMT	3 points
	As for Carter and the Hall of Fame, Monk had to wait forever. For some reason they don't take receivers as quickly as they should. Andre Reed isn't in, either.

	Great Quiz.

	ssmitty:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 03:12 GMT	1 point
	Also, I think Derrick Mason of the Ravens retired last week. The asterisk should be removed his name as well.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 04:02 GMT	11 points
	I won't claim to be any NFL expert, but I think the fact the whole first column played in the last 20 years (and almost half are active) is reason enough to be careful in inducting them to the HOF. Obviously the passing game has changed a lot, and there's nothing wrong with the voters getting some perspective on these guys. Simply making 800+ receptions may not be that special if several of your peers did it as well.

	MovieDynamic:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 04:16 GMT	3 points
	WOW. Art Monk might be the coolest name ever!

	JohnJF:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 04:46 GMT	4 points
	@Nuclear_Knuckles: It's kind of like home runs in baseball. You have to be harder on the players, but some people are going to rise to the top. That has to be considered.

	SowCrates:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 08:30 GMT	4 points
	spot on Nuclear_Knuckles. Hines Ward is an amazing player with a great career and already two rings with a few years left to play, but I'd hesitate to say he's had a HoF career.

	chronosaurus:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 13:59 GMT	9 points
	IMHO, "to" should not be a valid option for Terrell Owens... I was going team by team, typed "Toomer" and he suddenly appeared.

	btroup1:	Jul 19th, 2009 at 22:14 GMT	2 points
	Steven - Mason has not filed the paperwork, so since he has a contract fot this season, he's active.

	btroup1:	Jul 20th, 2009 at 15:37 GMT	7 points
	@btroup1: Stop with the facts. It's much more fun to berate the quiz author. I refuse to believe that you can go to espn.com or foxsports.com to validate your assertion. Adam Schefter said he retired; therefore, it's true.

	ironsij0287:	Jul 21st, 2009 at 02:50 GMT	1 point
	Ha, when I originally submitted the quiz I didn't have an asterisk by Mason.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Jul 21st, 2009 at 18:08 GMT	4 points
	Btroup, are you arguing with yourself? You're blowing my mind...

	btroup1:	Jul 21st, 2009 at 20:59 GMT	3 points
	Knuckles - LOL. I saw that I was voted down when all I did was state a fact. I was just trying to be clever instead of whining about it.

	Nuclear_Knuckles:	Jul 21st, 2009 at 21:13 GMT	2 points
	ohhh, gotcha. It was too clever for me. I'll give you three votes up for that.

	Reed:	Jul 21st, 2009 at 22:51 GMT	-1 points
	Derek Mason is no longer active. He retired a few days ago

	Mello:	Jul 24th, 2009 at 21:27 GMT	5 points
	reading this list, it's not clear to me why the HOF voters, when interviewed, say that andre reed shouldn't be in the HOF; they say his spots on these lists are declining over time, but isn't that because the era he played in was a little less pass heavy? and to say that he shouldn't be in because 4 players from a team that never one a super bowl (Kelly, Reed, Thomas and Smith) is too many is a ridiculous reason to keep someone out

	Brad:	Aug 6th, 2009 at 19:18 GMT	4 points
	Marshall Faulk had more career receptions than Michael Irvin. Wow.

	Zimminator:	Sep 19th, 2009 at 21:27 GMT	1 point
	Brad, you have to remember that Michael Irvin had his career cut a few years short after breaking his neck...

	Marvin Harrison is not currently on active rosters for an NFL team, and Eric Moulds has not been on an NFL roster for more than a season. Even though these players technically may not be retired, I don't think they should be listed as "active" players.

	zlb33:	Aug 16th, 2010 at 07:29 GMT	2 points
	isaac bruce, marvin harrison and eric moulds are not "active". Isaac Bruce retired this year i believe.
