They all pile on the Joe Thomas bandwagon “future HOF” like you said, just the same.   While Whitworth, (just as good) gets nothing for 10 years.  I’m not saying Joe Thomas is no hall of gamer or not good.  Just if Whitworth was on one of the chosen franchises maybe Joe Thomas isn’t “the man” all those years.

Anyway, Justin Smith and Whitworth were awesome Bengals!  WhoDey

OR... just hear me out here, Whit was a LG for the first 3 years of his career, was in Bob Bratkowski's offense for the first 5 years of his career, and Joe Thomas was just really really good at football the second he entered the league.

Andrew Whitworth has been 1st Team All-Pro more than Drew Brees and Russell Wilson combined have. Whitworth has only been 1st Team All-Pro 1 time less than Dan Marino. It's a hard thing to be.

If your argument is based around Whitworth being snubbed because he wasn't on a "chosen franchise" and the person you're complaining about is on the BROWNS, then it's a flawed argument. Lol
