    Playing in the trenches as an O-lineman is a very under appreciated position.
    Very rarely do you get substituted out.
    If you had a good defence, that meant you had more playing time as you would be on the pitch longer.
    Every play you knew if you screwed up, you QB or RB could get hurt.
    As a captain I told my fellow linemen, the fun part was that every defensive player was a target until the
    play ended. You always had a man to hit. Unlike the defence which had to concentrate on the whoever had the ball!

    I interviewed L.C. Greenwood in the mid 80s when he was a Lite Beer spokesman, on his way to represent at winter festivals in northern Michigan. He said that day that the toughest offensive lineman he ever faced was Bob Brown, and the Mean Joe Greene section starting at 4:11 tells you he told others of this, too.

    As a tackle myself, that block he made at 3:55 gives me goosebumps.
    His footwork was incredible.
    Its just sad he had to wait 30 some years to the hall of fame.

    The stories of Bob Brown with the Oakland Raiders are legendary.
    And I'm talking off the field.
    Bob loved his guns. Not his big arms. Guns as in Colt, S&W...etc. That's why he was called "Boomer". He was always firing off rounds, at the motel and the bars they frequented which drove Madden nuts.
    So one story goes that while still in training camp his first year in Oakland, George Atkinson would always tell Bob(the new guy)to get him a beer or something to eat till one night the door opens to George's room and Bob empties the clip of one if his guns into the bed George is sleeping but aiming not to hit him. After he's done he says to George, next time you'll think twice about making me your slave! Which George says he never did again😂
    There will never ever be another team like the 1970s Oakland Raiders. Which is why I feel so blessed to have been around then to see it.

Deacon Jones did it again and so Bob BROWN took a screw on his helmet and filed it to a point and so next time Deacon Jones tried to head slap him he got his hand impaled on this sharpened screw on Bob Brown’s helmet. That’s the kind a guy Bob Brown was.

    Shocked he wasn't in the NFL top 100. There are only a handful that could rate above him. Jim Parker of the Colts. The great John Hannah of the Patriots. Larry Allen of the Cowboys. And probably the greatest of them all, the fabulous Anthony Munoz of the Bengals. That would be my Mt. Rushmore for offensive linemen. That's a pretty short list above Bob Brown. His knee problems were probably the one thing that kept him from the very top. Brown had only about a 10 year career. But, it was ten years of terror!! Intimidation in upper case.
