But if the Bengals had gotten rid of Dunlap when he had just turned 30 and had 9 sacks and 21 QB hits the fan base would have revolted. Same with Atkins when he just turned 31 and was selected to his 5th straight Pro Bowl.
If you don't believe me then just look at how everyone reacted when we let Whitworth walk in free agency when he was 36.
True, but we were no longer winning with them. Eistein was right when he said something to the tune of expecting change by doing the same thing over and over again.
