I was just watching an interview where he was shredding the FO in a backhanded sort of way. The gist was that we got to the Super Bowl despite the FO. They don't spend. Our roster is full of no-names.
He made sure to mention he was happy for the city and he was very complimentary of Burrow and Chase. But if we're to believe Palmer, it's "magic" that brought the Bengals here. Burrow and Chase dragged an average/cheap roster to the Super Bowl.
Bitter take is bitter.
Also, it's the timing. He bashed the Bengals before we took Burrow. He's bashing them before the Super Bowl. Lord knows we've had countless stars complain about the team, but Boomer, Chad, TJ, etc aren't running their mouths NOW.
CP has burned his bridge and is fine with that. Unlike other stars who have criticized the team, but still make it clear they're proud they were Bengals.
Hearing the truth can but tough sometimes. I've known a few players, rented to one. They all seem to be the same, no one dislikes MB, but our resources are the worst, and before Katie were most likely laughing stock worthy.
Coach class middle seat airline tickets for FA visits (340lb NG in 1997) ... didnt provide towels for showers (long ago), etc.
Not sure if some weren't around or dont remember fans forming the Who Dey Revolution, MikeBrownSucks, SavetheBengals.com, planes flying over the stadium with banners. There really is no defense of MB's past actions. Carson isnt the only player who has voiced this opinion - we were the first with loyalty clauses because of MB's cheapness. Lee Johnson, Kitna, Blake, Pikens, Spikes
come to mind.
Again, Katie has shored up most, if not all of the silliness. Still need a facility and more scouts, IMO.
