Cricket Posted July 22 Report Share Posted July 22 I’m glad to see that the voters got this right. The two Kens should be in the NFL Hall of Fame. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatternMaster Posted July 22 Report Share Posted July 22 This only 2 players a year is stupid, it drags out something that should have beed done years ago. Hopefully no more great former players have to die before they get their flowers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mistake is waiting this long to create the honor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sparky151 Posted July 23 Report Share Posted July 23 Er, I don't think Paul Brown deserves it for his accomplishments with the Bengals. He's certainly a Hall of Famer for what he did with the Browns. But being the first coach and team founder isn't in itself deserving of the ring of honor. If his son didn't own the team, he wouldn't have made it.

|High School Harry| Posted July 24 Report Share Posted July 24 I think they should include Trenton Irwin in the Ring of Honor. Who's with me? Aaaayyyyyyyyy.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And if he'd founded a dynasty in Cincinnati (on the field, that is) I'd feel differently. But just making the playoffs isn't that great an achievement. I'd say Forrest Gregg and Sam will get in the Bengals RoH before Marvin. But they both ought to be behind a lot of players. And Mike Brown should never even be considered.

sparky151 Posted July 27 Report Share Posted July 27 I think we all know that 10 or 20 years from now, Katie will be pushing Mike Brown for RoH. Heck, maybe even sooner than that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I_C_Deadpeople Posted August 28 Report Share Posted August 28 The Athletic has been running a piece over the last few weeks - the 100 best NFL players of all time. They had John Hannah in the 20"s (cant recall which spot exactly) and in his piece they called him the greatest OL ever - so i thought they had totally dissed Munoz. But he showed up today at #12 on the greatest of all time! https://theathletic.com/2786115/2021/08/28/nfl-100-at-no-12-anthony-munozs-greatness-only-continued-after-his-bengals-career/ I can post the whole article if anyone wants it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
