OH shit I guess I forgot about that!  And against the dirty fuckin Stoolers, too.  Probably a repressed memory considering the game's outcome and the general misery that was the 2010 season.

Whit caught his TD to give us the 7-0 lead and good ol Palmer technically threw for 3 TDs on the day....yet we lost 23-7.
Yep that was a typical 2010 season game right there.

According to your votes, Larry Allen is the best offensive lineman of all time.  

 

The fourth installment of our continuing series was a big one. These men were larger than life when they played, but by the end of the polling, your votes settled the debate over who is the best offensive lineman of all time.

In a battle of Hall of Famers, Larry Allen bested Anthony Munoz by getting 67 percent of the vote. Allen, the No. 7 seed, beat Randall McDaniel, Forrest Gregg and John Hannah to reach the final. Munoz, the No. 1 overall seed, won easily against Jim Ringo, Jon Ogden and Bruce Matthews (To see the full results of the bracket, click here).

Allen was an 11-time Pro Bowl selection, a seven-time All Pro, a Super Bowl champ, and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2013. He played guard for the Cowboys most of his career, before playing his last two seasons with the 49ers.

Munoz was a legendary left tackle in his own right. He played on the only two Bengals AFC title teams, was an 11-time Pro Bowler.

 Not worth spending much time thinking about. Typically the most recent of the plausible candidates will win a poll. More of the voters will have seen him play and his hype is probably fresher. Also centers and guards get repeat votes for the pro bowl and all pro teams due to their reputation.
