    Re: Bengals Virtual HOF

    Why do people forget Lemar Parrish?

    7 times a Pro Bowler with the bengals..... twice with the Redskins...that is about more Pro Bowls for someone not in the HOF.

    Deon Sanders before Sanders.....just played in an era with less media and in a city where you are basically ignored.

    The guy scored about 9 TD's....with INT returns....fumble returns....led the NFL in punt return average in 1974 with 18.8. Scored 2 TD's in a game twice.
    One was with a punt return and a fumble return against Washington in 1974.

    The guy is not even considered? Heck everyone left him off their Bengals HOF list. He is right up there with Anderson and Riley.

    I didn't forget him. He'd be high on my list, a no brainer.

    I would put him in the Bengals HOF. I limited my list to 10, included Paul Brown and Anthony Munoz, and tried to balance out positions so it wasn't too heavily weighted. There have been quite a few great Bengals. I think the Bengals should definitely push for his hall candidacy, but right now I think Riley and Anderson are the bigger slights.
