Because I have been wondering whyere all those free agents on the market come from if the Bengals are the only team in the league who does not pay every player as much as he asks for.

In no universe are they exactly like every other team in the league.  They may do some things other teams do but they always have their own little spin on it. 

It's okay to be different if your different is better than everyone else's same. 

To a degree, what the Bengals do works.  But doing it this way means you slowly collect enough talent to make a run and you basically get one shot at it.  See: Bengals, 2015.  Reds, 2010. 

If you don't get it done in that ultimate year, it falls apart.  If you're not like the Patriots and able to find ways to keep improving while having to replace players, you get one, maybe two shots.  And you have to be right about players a whole lot of the time.

This franchise stands in a bit of a mess of its own making.  If you're a fan of this team, it's pretty damned disheartening to go from 2015 to last year and then follow it up with this.  We won 6 and lost two critical pieces and one valuable piece.  Pretty hard to see that and not think we got worse.  How many do we win last year without Whit and Z?

If any fans or players on the team are pissed, they have earned the ***** right.  Anybody who says otherwise is just being a doosh.
