Why Such Hate for Tate?

If I'm not mistaken, I'm pretty sure we got points on the board in the Seattle game because they botched a KR.. I could have the wrong game, but it seems familiar. That hasn't happened to us in a while, and let me tell you, nothing brings the air out of the stadium like a fumbled KR.

Not every rookie is fumble prone ya know. Can't convince me there hasn't been better return guys available in the last 2 drafts. Besides, Tate has fumbled 7 times (2 lost) on returns since joining the Bengals.

With the ball coming out to the 25 this year, maybe all of this will be moot. But I can tell you that if Tate returns a KO this year from 8 yards deep, I'll be writing Marv.
