billsbackto81 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Well deserved. Even with all his accolades, I still feel he was underrated. Should of been a first ballot HOFer. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NoHuddleKelly12 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Long overdue recognition. Tip of the cap ? Thurman. Loved collecting his cards that routinely boasted “total yards from scrimmage leader” in his prime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuffaloBillyG Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Always felt Thomas was underrated. Playing at a time when Barry Sanders and Emmit Smith were will make that happen. Really helped make the versitle back popular. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhoTom Posted October 6, 2018 Share Posted October 6, 2018 Good for Thurman! I'm sure that they want to do this on MNF to give Thurman a national stage, but geez, could they have picked a worse opponent for the event? I hate to be a downer, but it's likely that the game will be over by halftime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Number retirements don’t happen all that often, so they usually get a mention / interview with the announcing crew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Billsfanatic8989 Posted October 7, 2018 Share Posted October 7, 2018 Is there a reason this wasn't done already? Seems like a true great should've had his # retired immediately after retirement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
