As I have said many times here I don't claim to know more than any NFL coach but I can see production and results on the field. Dunlap was more productive than the guys he got benched behind and the defense was worse without him.
I remember him, he's the guy that told Zimmer to keep his boot in Carlos' butt to keep him from being lazy and taking plays off.
And it appears Zimmer also told Dunlap to play the way he wanted to or he wouldn't play. Of course, this was before Dunlap was ultra rich.
Dig deep and Zimmer still at heart of Bengals defense
Quote:Carlos Dunlap won't pick up the phone to call Zimmer. But he'll still sing his praises.
"Not a very friendly guy," Dunlap recalled this week. "I feel like he helped me as a young player. Very blunt. He told me what I needed to work on. There was no gray area. Very adamant. You won't play until you fix it. There's your motivation."
