tedstrong Posted August 6, 2017 Posted August 6, 2017 Watching old highlights, I remain convinced that because of his effectiveness, longevity, and iconic status as a Bill, Reggie McKenzie belongs on the Wall of Fame. Please remember how hard he charged every play well into the 80's, for bad teams. This guy left it on the field every down. I really believe it would mean the world to him. He was as much an icon of this team for hard work as Darryl Talley, ask Darryl Talley. When he came into the league, who did everyone on the team look to as the leader.

I wouldn't object to that. He helped turn The Juice loose.
Rico Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 If they need room, they can take Joe D down and put Reggie up.
tedstrong Posted August 7, 2017 Author Posted August 7, 2017 People go on and on about the most inane things on this board, but Reggie can't any traction with Bills fans? Neophytes! The Bills did not start in 1990. A member of the most feared offensive line in NFL history! C'mon!!
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 ....why "no" to Joe D?......put the "Electric Company" on the WOF as a gang to be remembered.....
dwight in philly Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 Why not Reggie? no problem with it. actually never thought of him.. but makes sense
OldTimeAFLGuy Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 Why not Reggie? no problem with it. actually never thought of him.. but makes sense ....why should Joe D be removed?......
Rico Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 ....why should Joe D be removed?...... He feels betrayed by the NFL.
cba fan Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) Why not Reggie? Â Wikpedia: In 2002, McKenzie was inducted into the College Football Hall of Fame.[11] He was also inducted into the Michigan Sports Hall of Fame in 1994. He was inducted into the Greater Buffalo Sports Hall of Fame in 2016. [12] On November 22, 2016, McKenzie was won the Big Ten's Ford-Kinnick Leadership Award.[13] Edited August 7, 2017 by cba fan
dwight in philly Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) ....why should Joe D be removed?...... i dont think he should.. ??? i missed something, i was commenting on reggie Edited August 7, 2017 by dwight in philly
Augie Posted August 7, 2017 Posted August 7, 2017 (edited) He feels betrayed by the NFL.And he tends to be very vocal about it....But don't get me wrong, he has that right and belongs up there. Â I didn't realize Reggie wasn't up there, actually. He should be, in my mind. Edited August 7, 2017 by Augie
tedstrong Posted August 8, 2017 Author Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) Thank you for all the positive responses...I really would like to gain momentum. Â I have no truck with Joe D at all. I think his place on the Wall is well deserved, and he's a happy rewarded Bill. Â I have always held onto the pride I felt when 'Old Man Reggie' was in his last years and would come sidling up to the line to block with amazing effectiveness for Joe Cribbs and Roland Hooks, just as he had for OJ and my hero Jim Braxton 8 or 10 years earlier. Â He was a real asset to the Bills for so long...I remember how everyone looked up to him as a leader from'73 forward. Edited August 8, 2017 by tedstrong
nucci Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 (edited) If they need room, they can take Joe D down and put Reggie up. Why? McKenzie should be up there, too Edited August 8, 2017 by nucci
ALF Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 Heard a funny story I think from Joe D. Â Bills were playing Steelers and Mean Joe Greene put his foot on the ball and asks the OL who's the bad MFer who can take this ball from me. Â Reggie said to Joe D. I think he's talking to you
WhoTom Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 I'm surprised he's not already there. Get it done, OBD.
KOKBILLS Posted August 8, 2017 Posted August 8, 2017 In all honestly I don't want to hear of another name until Biscuit is up there...

Helpmenow Posted August 9, 2017 Posted August 9, 2017 (edited) Reggie could run like no tomorrow on that sweep. He was also a vocal leader Edited August 9, 2017 by Helpmenow
