Alright, thought this could be cool. I'm going to pit various Bengals from the last 20 years against one another. Consider all of these comparisons with each player being at their prime.
I will throw in a couple of choices that aren't the same position, but more of a who would you rather have on your roster.
Here we go...
1.) Carson vs. Andy.
2.) Chad vs. AJ.
3.) Housh vs. Boyd vs. Marvin Jones vs. Sanu (Pick 1)
4.) Willie Anderson vs. Whitworth
5.) Rudi Johnson vs. Joe Mixon
6.) Steinbach vs. Zeitler
7.) Takeo Spikes vs. Burfict
8.) Jerome Simpson vs. John Ross
9.) Leon Hall vs Jonathan Joseph
10.) Chris Perry vs Jeremy Hill
11.) Chris Henry vs Gio Bernard
12.) Justin Smith vs. Michael Johnson
13.) Kelly Washington vs. Auden Tate
14.) Jordan Shipley vs Rex Burkhead
15.) Levi Jones vs Andre Smith
16.) Peko vs Pacman
Bonus - Coaches
17.) Piano Man vs Jim Turner
18.) Bob Bratowski vs Ken Zampese
19.) Zimmers ire vs. Marvin's giggle

If Auden Tate comes up with a really good dance, I may change my mind on that one.

Are we basing it on results or ability?
1.) Carson vs. Andy. Carsone, Andy if results.
2.) Chad vs. AJ. Chad
3.) Housh vs. Boyd vs. Marvin Jones vs. Sanu (Pick 1) Boyd
4.) Willie Anderson vs. Whitworth You picked Willie? Really? The 3rd best T who couldn't play on the left side, vs our 2nd best OL ever who played LT? Whitworth all day.
5.) Rudi Johnson vs. Joe Mixon Mixon
6.) Steinbach vs. Zeitler Steinbach (2 different lineman though, really)
7.) Takeo Spikes vs. Burfict Spikes for ability, Burfict for results.
8.) Jerome Simpson vs. John Ross Ross for ability, Simpson for results.
9.) Leon Hall vs Jonathan Joseph Leon. Better than Joseph any day of the week (save for injuries)
10.) Chris Perry vs Jeremy Hill Hill
11.) Chris Henry vs Gio Bernard ????? Gio-van, but weird comparison there...
12.) Justin Smith vs. Michael Johnson Smith
13.) Kelly Washington vs. Auden Tate Tate
14.) Jordan Shipley vs Rex Burkhead Bulkhead
15.) Levi Jones vs Andre Smith 'dre
16.) Peko vs Pacman ???? Again. Adam Jones.

Henry vs Ross This comparison is more appropiate.
Henry easily wins.

Couple bad vs bad choices there.
I have to say though, if I had an offense with prime Chad, Housh, Shipley, and Gio... I would convert every 3rd down known to man and Carson would set a new NFL completion % record.

For those picking Turner over Alexander you know the latter was actually once of the best in the league during his “prime” right?

I'm guessing those coupla pairings were sorta high character guys vs questionable character guys. That's just the way I saw it. I picked Spikes over Burfict simply because he could control himself. I liked watching Vontaze play football though.
I'm gonna break every record they've got. I'm tellin' you right now. I don't know how I'm gonna do it, but it's goin' to get done.

Is it? I think people are being objective. Palmer was far mor talented if you’re picking out of the two in their “primes.”
