We need to remind ourselves who Lamar Hunt was. He was not only the founder of the American Football League, the predecessor of the AFC, but hunt also founded the Kansas City Chiefs.  To see Mike Brown accept the Lamar Hunt Trophy in Arrowhead Stadium for beating Lamar Hunt’s team in his own stadium was a big moment for me.

I freely confess I may have been too hard on Mike Brown at times and now all I want is for him to hold the Lombardi Trophy and bring it back to Cincinnati.

Indeed

I've complained about him as much as any Bengal fan. Probably more than many. And to be fair he's deserved some of the criticism. 

But now I'm really happy for him and I hope and pray he gets a Lombardi.
