Absolutely, while Joe and Jamar appear to be on track to become All-Time Bengal Greats, they still have to play a significant career before guys like Boomer, Anderson, Chad Johnson or even AJ Green can be considered fair comparisons.

This is so fair and so correct and completely being over-looked due to recency bias not to mention an ever changing league and set of rules.

Comparing Kenny Anderson to moder QBs with stats and Anderson looks like he has no business on the list, yet in his era he was one of the best.

Same issue happens when you try to compare say Carl Pickens to A.J. Green or Chad Johnson. Chad had the best QB of the three in Palmer, A.J. put up great numbers (pretty incredible numbers when you look at the talent around him at times) and then you get Carl Pickens who was on just terrible teams with multiple QBs the best of them being Jeff Blake. 

It's really hard to ever get one of these type of lists right as you have fewer and fewer fans every year that even remember a guy like Trumpy as a player, or Anderson (Kenny) or Krumrie or Boomer and even people who jumped on the band in the mid to late 2000's missed out on Pickens, Dillon, Willie Anderson and don't have any comparison besides Green/Dalton to Higgins,Chase/Burrow.
