JoePong Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 I honestly don't see anybody who is a future HOFer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bryce40 Posted March 15, 2008 Report Share Posted March 15, 2008 I really think it depends alot on what there teams do (I don't expect these guys to stay Bengals forever, unfortunately) but I could see Carson or Chad becoming a HOF especially Carson depending upon how he develops the rest of his career and if he can lead this team to a Super Bowl.

BengalChamps Posted March 16, 2008 Report Share Posted March 16, 2008 Coach LeBeau HAS to be there. Besides his playing exploits, his contribution and longevity as a coach needs to be recognized. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the interest of good taste, I'll omit David Shula. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of the aforementioned coaches will make the HOF. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that LeBeau should be considered because of 1. his playing days2. Zone-blitz creator.3. won superbowl as D coordinator4. over 50 years in the league as player, DC, and Head coach(not good i remember) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

combatbengal Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Call me crazy but I'd like to see Paul Brown, Anthony Muñoz, and David Fulcher in the HOF! Current players who have a chance in the future are Palmer. CJ ruined it with his attitude and behavior this of season. I'd be shocked if he had a fan base of 20 people after this off season.

None of the aforementioned coaches will make the HOF.LeBeau is still fairly high up there on the career interceptions list, and he invented the zone blitz. Probably the most innovative defensive tactic of the last few decades. For combined accomplishments, I could see him making it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wraith Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 I don't think that people are saying LeBeau as a HEAD coach but he has been to the superbowl 4 times as a defensive coordinator ('81, 88, 95, 2005) and won once. He invented the zone blitz scheme and revolutionized the 3-4 defense. As a player he had 62 INTs returning 3 of them for touchdowns and had a streak of 171 consecutive games which is a record for cornerbacks. Yeah he deserves to be in the HOF.Riley deserves it, Anderson, and I believe Boomer deserves to be in the HOF his career statistics are better in many ways than Jim Kelly's (more yards, more TDs, comparable Passer Rating for their careers 84.1 for Kelly to 81.1 for Esiason) and Kelly was never voted NFL MVP as Esiason was in 1988.

gregstephens Posted May 9, 2008 Report Share Posted May 9, 2008 Of the current era Bengals, I see maybe Willie, as he has been dominant in his position over the years. The Bengals' lack of post season success will cut against him, however. Palmer might get in, but I fear the Bengals won't keep the tools around him he would need to make it. Jury's still out on Ch@d. If he can sustain his average numbers another five or six years, perhaps, but his attitude will keep him from being a first ballot.Prior Bengals: Ken Riley, Ken Anderson, Boomer Esiason. Tim Krumrie, if anyone on that defense gets in, over Fulcher. And you can't really count Charlie Joiner, as his HOF numbers were gathered as a Charger, and, frankly, I think he was overrated. His Bengals career is insignificant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Riley and Ken Anderson both deserve it, Isaac Curtis has comparable numbers to the WR's of his era that have already been inducted and Willie has made a good case.

Thurmanation Posted May 12, 2008 Report Share Posted May 12, 2008 I don't see anyone on this current Bengals roster making the HOF, the only way TJ, Carson or Thurman/Rivers is if they win a superbowl, its almost mandatory now a-days. Doesnt matter how great you are if you've played on a mediocre team your whole career your not getting near those wax heads. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
