If he doesnt go into the hall of fame its probably only because he was on the Bengals and he never won a SB. I would say the vast majority of people dont even know who Kenny Anderson is other than Bengals fans. I know he does get recognized in this board, but he should have a lot more notoriety than he gets now.
Very true. He is huge to Bengal fans, but does not get a lot of recognition nationwide. It is ridiculous that he is not in the Hall of Fame.
But nationwide Lemar Parrish gets even less love. I think he was blackballed because of some drug problems after he retired. But even though he held the NFL career record for return TDs for almost TWO DECADES ('77-'96) until Deion broke it in 1996 no one ever mentions Parrish as an all time great. He was a First-Team All-Pro and 8 time Pro-Bowl selection. He still holds the record for the highest single season punt return average since the AFL/NFL merger. His 18.8 avg in '74 is the highest in the last 58 years.
