5 first-team All-Pro selections in six seasons and yet he's not in Canton already? Matheson should have been selected to the Hall of Fame's 1940s All-Decade Team. How many other players with 5 first team All-Pro nods are eligible but not in the Hall of Fame yet? I'd imagine that Matheson is one of only about five or so. Hopefully somebody more knowledgeable has the answer!
