They bought into the Bengals 100%, they both played with tremendous heart and were leaders both on the field and in the locker room. Peko often caught lots of flack from us fans for not being a "superstar", but what he was, was a reliable big body that played an important role. Not just in his physical duties on the field, but as an encouraging, optimistic voice on the team.
Peko was garbage, complete garbage. He got zero pressure on the QB, the next thing were going to be saying is Rey Mauluga was a core player. ANDREW WHITWORTH was a core player and our offensive leader and our identity. To save a few pennies, we let Big Whit walk intentionally, because we drafted back to back tackles while he was still ballin. Do you remember Whit going off on tweeter after they drafted Fisher? Then apologizing the next day? He knew the lame a** Bengals was going to get rid of him regardless of how he played. That is not a franchise trying to win, that's a franchise saving a buck.
