Elliot Harrison, NFL Media analyst for NFL.com, recently gave his take on which player from all 32 teams should be the next from their franchise to be honored with enshrinement into the Pro Football Hall Of Fame. Before I scrolled down to his Chicago Bears pick, I just assumed it would be 8 time Pro Bowler Brian Urlacher or 7 time Pro Bowler Lance Briggs. Or maybe even the recently retired Charles Tillman.
I was pleasantly surprised when Harrison went old school and picked defensive tackle Steve “Mongo” McMichael.
I’ve always thought Mongo was underrated, but I understood him being overshadowed by the other great players on that defense.
