3 pro bowls
2x all pro
4x 1000 yards
2x 1100 yards
Averaged 16.1 yards/catch for his entire career
He's one of few players who played in both of our Super Bowls. So where is the respect for this guy? I know he fell off quickly after some injuries including ACL, but he clearly deserves mention among our all-time greats.
He had a career that was on par with Isaac Curtis and better than Pickens, but with the way people generally talk about the guy, you wouldn't guess it.
I get if his personality rubs some people the wrong way (I've never taken issue with the guy), but that doesn't mean we should deny that the guy was a great Bengal.
Thoughts?
Also you can throw out other Bengals greats you feel are underappreciated.
constantly had bad things to say about the bengals. Kinda like boomer.
Good players though
