Err...Longwell was a kicker and bolted for the enemy.

Stenerud, Chandlers, Jacke, Marcol were all strictly kickers, and there's a QB in there who bolted.

There is nothing wrong with inducting a kicker, but why Longwell?

Just a guess, but he kicked in the second-most games (behind Mason) and has a higher percentage than Mason or the others already in the Packers HOF.

Record for 14 sacks in a season?
Man oh man. I wonder if Tauscher has a son we could hire.

Longwell currently remains second in most points scored in Packers history. With other kickers having been inducted I don't have any issue with him being added.

What was his success rate from 50+ yards?

Longwell made 24 out of 39 (61.5%) field goals from 50+ yards over his career. He was 13-of-22 (59.1%) in that category with the Packers.
