Like God damn dude. Jerry Rice had 11 straight, and 14 total, but even he didn’t have one his rookie year. Evans is an absolutely monster.

    Evans is very like to finish his career top 18 and potentially top 15 in all time receiving yards. He’s also very likely to finish top 7 all time in receiving touchdowns.

    The only players in the top 10 in receiving touchdowns not in the hall of fame are not yet eligible, and you have to get to 20th on that list to reach the first eligible player not in the hall of fame (Hines ward) who in 70 more games than Evans, amassed only 800 more yards and 3 fewer TDs.

    So when it’s all said and done, i don’t see the precedent where the hall of fame voters “clearly disagree” that Evans career isn’t a hall of fame one. Maybe Reggie Wayne is best comparison? But evans is going to have close to 20 more touchdowns than him when his career is over most likely and most likely within 1000 yards.
