This isn’t to say that Jackson didn’t have good campaigns at other times in his career. He became a Ram and was part of a very good squad there. Ironically, he went from being hidden on a bad team to being overshadowed on a fairly good one, even despite finishing second in MVP in his first year there (1973). Jackson was a Red Zone Specialist and a deep threat throughout his career.
Harold Jackson’s career numbers are quite good (10,372 Yards and 76 Touchdowns), especially considering that he tallied most of his numbers at a time when Wide Receivers were not setting the NFL on fire. However, considering he was not selected to the 1970’s All-Decade team, it is hard to see how he can make the Hall; especially considering other great wideouts from the ’70s are still out.
