Quote:Tony was the best LT I have ever seen and I live in Cincinnati, where I watched Anthony Munoz play when I was a kid. Tony deserves to be in the HOF, but unfortunately, injuries cut his career short and it seems like voters really hold this against him. I doubt he ever gets in. Jimmy deserves to be in as well, but he's a long shot as well. 
 

Amazingly,  Anthony Munoz is the only player who was with the Bengals for most of his playing career to be voted into the Pro Football HOF.   The Bengals first season was in 1968,  not exactly yesterday.

 

It might take the Senior Committee to lead the way in eventually getting into the HOF but I think he has a pretty good chance to eventually get in.   It took well over 50 years for G Dick Stanfel,  who had a similar length career as Boselli to finally get into the HOF but he got in this year.    Both were differential Offensive Lineman.
