I'm home now!

The Ring could have tempted Gimli with the prospect of regaining Khazad-Dum. Legolas...could have been tempted to set up a cookie factory in some hollow tree in Mirkwood!

We don't know about Legolas and Gimli do we? - Tolkien did not really tell us what might cause them to fail. He had already set up Boromir to be the fall guy. They were let off the hook by their creator, apparently. He hints that the rest of them would fail, but didn't feel the need to expand on it.
