    Should we retire Eddie's Jerey?

    Yes/No

    I think we should. Even though he did leave us for Dallas, you have to admit, people do make mistakes. But he has been this franchise's workhorse for a long time. I can't see anyone else wearing that number. What he does for our community speaks volumes. Hopefully soon Bud will honor him.

    I don't think any number should ever be retired...

    Did he do something great enough to have his number retired? He was a good player but retiring of numbers should be reserved for those who do something truly special.

    Good player, good guy, not enough to retire the number. It's a shame though.

    I loved Eddie as a Titan, but I agree with Hoffa, no numbers should be retired. A banner honouring the player would be a nice touch though.


    Give #27 to Griffin.

    i think griffin sports 33 pretty well.

    but no, i don't think 27 should be retired. we need to have a ring of fame like the cowboys have, but no retired numbers.

    Best idea I have heard yet and would put a nice touch on the stadium. Ring of Fame would be nice also although its already done and would probably be criticized by fans all over the league

    Not 27 but i think when his career ends here we should retire nickey's jersey.

    Why is reynaldo's jersey still being used?

    I think your # should only be retired if you're a hall of fame lock. Eddie was great for us, and we'll all remember him without hanging his jersey up.
