They want the team to be more like the Pats, who have made the majority of the near-deadline trades while also being arguably the most successful team since 2000.
Here is an article written last year about how the Patriots approach the NFL trade deadline - https://www.sbnation.com/2017/10/27/16555968/patriots-2017-nfl-trade-deadline-rumors-deals
So this year the Pats don't care about winning?
Here is the deal. Historically NFL trade deadline deals are very rare, so it takes a troll to claim that the Bengals not making a deadline deal means they don't care about winning.
That happens a lot around here. The Bengals do something that most other teams do and a certain group here starts squealing about how it proves the Bengals are Clueless/don't care.
There have even been a few around here who have been spreading lies just to get fans more upset. For example the Raiders were supposed to be giving Jared Cook away for nothing. That was just total troll BS.
