New York Giants legend Ottis Anderson belongs in the Hall of Fame ... so says the ex-running back himself, who tells TMZ Sports, "One day they'll figure it out."
"If you check my credentials, I think I earned the right to be considered [a Hall of Famer]," Anderson says.
Ottis sneakily has a solid case for the honor ... the 62-year-old rushed for 10,273 yards and 81 TDs in his 14-year career, and he added 3,062 receiving yards as well.
Plus, the dude IS a two-time Super Bowl champion .
