Detroit Lions radio analyst Lomas Braown speaks to Free Press sports writer Dave Birkett on Super Bowl radio row on Thursday, Jan. 31, 2019.

He’s a seven-time Pro Bowler with a Super Bowl ring, he blocked for arguably the greatest running back of all-time, and he’s started more games than all but two offensive lineman in NFL history.

Lomas Brown has Pro Football Hall-of-Fame-worthy credentials by almost any measure, and yet he’s never even been a semifinalist for the Pro Football Hall of Fame.

“If I’m brutally honest (about why), I just think it’s the Lions,” Brown told the Free Press last week.
