Before the 1990s, the Bengals unquestionably had high quality quarterback play in their first two decades of existence, and their talent translated to early team success.
The combination of Ken Anderson and Boomer Esiason lead the Bengals to a 133-116 record, five playoff seasons and two Super Bowl appearances. Esiason took the torch from Anderson in 1985, and his respect for his mentor endures to this day.
Upon stepping down from being in the radio booth for Monday Night Football on ESPN, Esiason spoke with Bengals.com on the discussion surrounding Terrell Owens’ plans to skip his induction into the Hall of Fame in Canton, Ohio.
