your top 10 favorite bengals ever

[*ochocincos*]

My first exposure to the Bengals was in the 90's, so many of those old greats I never really watched.
As such, I won't include them in my list.

1) Chad Johnson - He was the reason I got into football at all. I was 100% a hockey person until I watched Chad. He made football fun.
2) Geno Atkins - First defensive jersey I ever bought.
3) AJ Green - Got his autograph from his rookie year on a rookie jersey. Really wish we could have seen Green and Chad together, but the Bengals traded Chad before the season started.
4) Ced Benson - Loved when the Bengals added him midseason in 2008. Dude ran mean.
5) Andrew Whitworth - My favorite bengals OL once I started really watching football a lot.
6) TJ Houshmandzadeh - Loved his consistency and reliability.
7) Vontaze Burfict - I didn't like the penalties, but I thought he was one of the best LBs the Bengals have had since I started really watching a lot of football.
8) Reggie Nelson - Loved what Nelson brought to the defense. I remember being excited the Bengals actually had a legit ball hawking FS after a few years of just meh FS play.
9) Clint Boling - He was just good year after year. I really liked seeing him play well when shifting back to LT too after all those years away from that spot.
10) Leon Hall - I'll always remember him getting beat bad by Braylon Edwards in September 2007, his rookie year. But he really became a damn good CB for years.
