WVUFootball29 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 NFL.com did an article about the best brother tandems in the history of the NFL http://www.nfl.com/news/story?id=09000d5d8...mp;confirm=true I thought I'd bring the list and the conversation here. Who do you think should have been on this list, who do you think is the best tandem? 10. Thomas and Julius Jones 9. Champ and Boss Bailey 8. Jamie and Darren Sharper 7. Randall and Sam Cunningham 6. Dale Carter and Jake Reed 5. William and Michael Dean Perry 4. Ronde and Tiki Barber 3. Shannon and Sterling Sharpe 2. Bruce and Clay Matthews 1. Peyton and Eli Manning Personally, I think the Bahr's Chris and Matt should have made this list. Two of the best placekickers of their day Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In space no one can hear Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 How about the Youngblood brothers? Lee Roy & Dewey Selmon? The Selmons even had another brother, Lucious, who was drafted by the Patriots in the 16th round of the 1974 draft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cookiemonster Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Didn't Bob Golic have a brother in the NFL, I thought that I remeber him as being pretty decent, can't remeber his name though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

R. Rich Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I'd put Bruce and Clay Matthews @ the top of that list. One is a Hall of Famer and the other one should be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KRC Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 What about the Nesser clan? Oh, that's right. They played before 1970, therefore it didn't happen. My bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBill Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 I'd put Bruce and Clay Matthews @ the top of that list. One is a Hall of Famer and the other one should be. I agree but maybe qualify it a bit by putting them in a tie with the manning bro's. While it may be a stretch to see Eli getting there he and Peyton may be HOfers and had their dad not been stuck on a crap team he likely would have been.
